Never really had any lego to expensive back in the day but always enjoyed looking at the boxes at are local WH Smiths.

As for them planes👍 Great memories there, always on the counter and if you throw them to hard they did a loop and nose dived into the ground and bent the nose and couldnt be use again.

my favourite toy from the above would have been the evil knievel stunt bike but the winder on mine was blue and not red,think i ended up taking it apart in the end to see how it worked,hence to say after that it never worked again,god how i wish i'd looked after my stuff now :(
