    I had a Bigtrack and the original flight deck with a grey phantom. Loved lego and Action Man and Play Mobile people.

    A ripped up old copy of razzle found in the local woods would provide hours of private entertainment when I were a nip as well. 😆

    Poor lad ended up with an Aladdin Sane style facial tattoo courtesy of my felt pens in the early 70s.
