Thought I'd share a few of my Ebay discoveries...



First up is a little toy from the 70's, I really like the bright colours and the unique little Sand Timer on this one...

This last one is a more traditional wooden one and looks like it has been put in a glass case...

Very cool stuff Hanabi!! Perhaps I'm a bit sheltered, but I've never heard of bagatelle!

[Eddie]

The bagatelle Rocks! Would like to have it!

I have the Torpedo its really cool watching the balls swirl around and launch into the scoring zone.

Only mine didnt come with the legs

[doug]

I had games that looked like them as a kid ,Did any one have one of thease http://www.officeplayground.com/woolywilly.html

Sure until the metal shavings fell out!

[Chrisdice]

Thanks for the great finds

[hanabi]

but I preferred my 'Etch-a-sketch' till I broke it by standing on it

[rubberratt]

[hanabi]

Well this is looking extremely sorry for itself I must say,

and I know Eddie has one of these cool toys!!

Dingaroo to you too!!

[hanabi]

Another nice little Bagatelle Game that caught my eye

especially like the pictures of Racing Cars, Motorbikes and 'Concord' too!!


http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SPEED-FLIPPER-...QQcmdZViewItem

Looks to be in good condition, an inexpensive little toy for the Games Room

[hanabi]

I quite like this one too,

is it really Glass Topped??

Perhaps glass wasn't perceived to be a hazard to children back then??

Now this is another old one, could do with a bit of TLC though...

Just saw this on ebay, and it caught my eye...

Lovely little old wooden pinball type game

It has a wire stand at the back so it can be played flat or inclined

Particularly like the characters on it...

described as Scarecrow, Cannibal, Wooden Soldier and Drunk with Top Hat

all sounds rather quaint and quirky...

I had a couple bagatelles when I was a kid. I seem to remember mine breaking when my sister stood on them. But my favorite toys as a kid also came from the UK - Dinky Toys and Corgi cars...especially those non-PC ones that shot missiles and stuff. My favorite was one of these:

[hanabi]

Not seen this one before,

shame it has a crack in the plastic and something missing from the battery compartment,


but it still looks fun to play

[musky]

Ahhhh, but do you have one of these... Actual size

[hanabi]

I was doing my usual look through the pinball and bagatelles on ebay
and this little vintage toy caught my eye...


It seems you fire the little balls and try and answer the questions correctly,
if you get it right the ball falls to a payout /scoring tray at the front,
if you get it wrong it falls to a discard tray at the back

Looks like it comes with lots of question cards and seems totally different to any games I've seen before
