[QUOTE="jedisearcher, post: 476813, member: 3582"] If they came from Palitoy they’d have been in the last Palitoy catalogues and on the order forms but they aren’t. We’d also see them in the big retail catalogues and they aren’t. So mainstream retailers never had them but like Edd says, there’s no reason that a toy wholesaler couldn’t have picked up a pallet or two and sold them off on a local level. It can’t be ruled out. I’d lost interest by then but I do remember a friend telling me he’d seen figures with coins being sold at a Manchester market in the 80s. I clearly remember thinking they must be blag because I’d never seen them before. I think it’s probably a true story but impossible to prove and not really evidence that anything was sold at retail.
