Connectables?.... never heard of them.... diecast or plastic? kind of a transformers/gobots spin off . I looked at your link ... big line up , new to me
plastic mostly
they came out in the LATE 1980s

Yep. Super cool stuff for then (and even now!) I had a bunch, an airport radar semi(I think..), a tanker semi, that hot rod in the pics above, a pickup, and a few others. I miss them!
The coolest one in my opinion and if my memory serves me correctly was the Lincoln Town Car version with a connectable piece that I believe turned it into a limo.
Ah yeah, you're right! I had one of those too. That was one was neat.
I want them NOW hehe
Apparently a rare one is a tanker truck :drool:
