Here's a brand that's only even been mentioned here once before. I didn't buy this; it's sort of an accidental family heirloom. I can't explain the weird discoloration.![]()

Neat old pickup. I sure didn't give those toys a second thought about being plastic back then as it was one of the common materials in those days. I have some old Renwal plastic toys packed away someplace in my basement from my younger days.

Between Renwal and Tomte, I played many an hour myself. Well, those and my Tootsie Greyhound bus. It may not be much of an heirloom it would seem, but personally I think it is really cool, and something I would treasure...especially if it had family history. |

Pleasantly surprised this drew interest! The family history is this: before my grandfather died, he found this buried in the backyard, having been missing forty years. He brought it to us his last visit, and we all had a good laugh. |

It's new to me as I don't recall seeing the brand posted before. It survived well for being buried that long! |

if it was buried underground, the moisture and acids in the soil, or fertilizer likely ate on the plastic. I found my own childhood cars buried in my backyard too, some of them, and the paint on them was all "warty". |
