Antique Trucks
Beautiful little Corgi diecast metal trucks for the adult collector. We'll choose (2) different models from our pool. (Would that be a motor pool or a car pool, do you think?) Anyway, we have an assortment of period fire trucks and Texaco vehicles. Exquisitely detailed, most 3" to 3-1/2" long, with historical information and a clear display plinth. Very collectible.

Water Rockets!!
A great toy that demonstrates the basics of rocketry. A plastic rocket is partially filled with water, air is pumped in with a little hand pump, and upon the release, the air pressure pushes the water out the back, propelling the rocket. About 1-1/2" dia x 6" long. Flight tests suggest loft and distances of about 50 feet each are achievable, when the right water/air mix is found. However, since operations lost their rocket on the roof, testing was terminated before final results could be obtained. Clearly, these are good fun for all ages. It has everything you need... Just add water!!

Air Powered Rocketry
The Stomp Rocket(tm) is an incredible toy you almost have to see and do yourself to believe. No battery or fuel required, just a good pair of gym shoes and the ability to jump onto the launch pad will send your rockets blasting 400 ft. into the sky at incredible speeds up to 100 mph! The launch, or 'Blast Pad' is a 4" x 8" rubber air 'box' with a 36" hose and 10" launch tube secured to an adjustable plastic tripod. Your rockets (four are included) are approx 7/8" dia x 9" long, made of bright yellow plastic, with soft rubber tips and fins. At first glance it looks like an OK toy, but preliminary 'right out of the box' tests showed that simply squeezing the blast pad by hand sent a rocket clear across our 25 ft. office. Needless to say, taking it outside and jumping on it made our jaws absolutely drop! Instructions suggest height and distance contests and even target practice (because of the fine adjustment achievable on the launcher tripod). Although shooting one into your hand right at the launch pad doesn't hurt, safety regulations are included along with the insistence of using safety goggles. We also have regular replacement rockets that come (2) rockets per our each.

Build-A-Dozer Kit
From Kustom Metal", this is a very nice erect-a-set-like kit with steel structural members plus rubber treads or a few plastic parts like wheels and accessories. We'll choose a clever Bulldozer, Excavator, Crane or Harvester, or a cool little Dragster or Racer, for you. The finished vehicle will be 5" or 6" long and proportionately high. Kits have between 130-190 pieces and include a small box wrench and screwdriver along with good instructions, although younger or impatient kiddles might need some help. Clever kids could also find other things to construct from the parts. Small parts and pieces, so keep it away from kids three and under.
