The 35 year wait is over!

I haven't done any research for Logray but Stefan has @walkie. Your Logray is the HK coo which I believe was made in the Unitoy factory. Both staffs are the same and I believe are the correct mould for the figure having 3 epms as shown.

That's great news and I thought they were the same staff to my eye but it was good to get a second opinion on it. One thing though is that the other Logray that was in the box has a Macau coo which makes me think that both that one and my HK one must have been packed with the same style staff.

It's been a real education learning all of this and now I just have to decide which staff to pair with mine as one is slightly more black in colour than the other (one of them used to mine but which one lol!).

What a lovely story & so nice to see you reunited with your childhood collection, this is pure gold, it just does not get any better.

Mine were a very simila story, all went to my younger cousin, I did not find out till about 5 years ago as his mother never had the heart to tell me that they were then passed on again to some younger relatives up north, next time she visited them my beloved collection was scattered all over the street where they lived in tatters =(

Least yours has been a happier ending.

This is my sole survivor & you are totally right, if there were a house fire he's the 1st thing I'd grab

Thank you for the kind words, it really was something that I thought would never happen and at least you still have one left, he can even sit down properly in a seat!

Thank's Ian! it is indeed a pleasure to have 1 if only 1.

I managed to find a couple of more photos of his "unique" poseability features, what can I say I was a bad child I must say I was delighted with how he turned out, mum not quite as happy I'd had her lighter & the kitchen knives away to do it.

And just to think that years on this very same figure would be packed in with a Monopoly set and sold as an 'exclusive' for the Retro collection
