Turret/Probot Playset:

Cool playset that I have never seen for sale in denmark and I have never found it in a danish childhood lot. I don't think it was sold in denmark or maybe a few small toy stores have imported it, but I have not found any proof yet that it has been sold in denmark. So I did not have it as a kid in the good old 80s. I first learned about it in 2001.

It is a cool set, got the probot but not the turret etc. I'm sure I will get round to finding one eventually

I love the Turret and Probot playset! As a kid, for me it was always streets ahead of the Imperial Attack Base, even though the latter did considerably more and was (I must grudgingly admit as an adult) actually the superior toy. However, the Imperial Attack Base wasn't in The Empire Strikes Back, whereas both a turret and a probot were! This made a real difference to me as a child . Why would I want something that wasn't even in the film, when I could have something that was?! For that reason, I bought myself a T&P with my Christmas and birthday money as an 8 year-old, but never bothered with an IAB until adulthood

I've upgraded my Palitoy T&P since the last TOTW thread, and so the one below is my current playset. However, I have owned several at one time or another over the years, so I also include a side-by-side shot of a pair of Palitoy and Kenner playsets I used to own

I should also downsize, but when I get a new job I will move and get a bigger place so I can have more star wars and all of it on display The 2 you have for sale are they with box ?
