Mike & Nico's Husky collection.

We have even begun to collect Husky models.
The collection is still small.

New in our collection, a
SIMON SNORKEL FIRE ENGINE
(which number has the Moddel l?)

Hello Mike & Nico,

Nice couple of 'HUSKY' models, if you have not already done so, you must visit Nick's Corgi Junior and Husky website, it is very good and will show you what else you can expect to add to your own fledgling collection. Go to the 'Lounge' and click on the 'Quick Links' and scroll down to towards the lower part of the listing.

Sadly they never made a Rolls-Royce model as part of the Husky range, so my only experience of these are from my original toys I had as youngster, none of which have stayed with me...

Nice models - I quite like some of the Huskys
I think the fire engine is 36a. Also your Guy Warrior looks like a 10a coal truck rather than a 13a sand truck. It is in much better condition than most of the ones I have seen. VW very nice too - see lots with no bands but not too many with them.

I have quite a few blistered huskys,but i dont have the vw baggage one,but do have the vw tower wagon.....

Hi Ewan,
Thank you for your interest and information ..
yes, it is a coal truck 10a.
I have improved it.

thanks and greetings from Austria

Kwakers is back on a slow minikeyboard. I have friends here with some minty Huskys at ten dollars u.s. plus shipping . Several collections are being broken up with early variations available. Probably no loaders with bands though, as said above, they are tough because Vw collectors have them on their shelves, along with us kids who enjoyed them too much back in our youth. Nice start on a Husky. Set MIke, mine have been packed away at least 25 years now. I did buy 3 at our local show that i think are a bit different than mine, so i cant say i dont still collect and love them. They were cheap with their plastic chrome bases that discolor, but how come lesney never had a manlift or cool baggage lift on a VW pickup for us to enjoy as much as Nico.....mm.......kwakers

Nico loves this old VW T1 models.

New in our, Husky collection.
The red VW T1 (32a)

Very nice, I don't see them as often as the white ones. I may be wrong on this, but the one I see least of is the pickup complete with it's canopy.
