When I worked at Tonka Toys in the 80s we had our own “Eddy Goldfarb”.
He made a wind-up 1950s Ford pick-up that would wiggle and shed all of the fenders and body parts and then reassemble itself while it was rolling on the floor.
We also had the Zing Test for new toys that used an aluminum molding base and a 50’ rubber tube. Place truck in end of stretched tube and let go. Zing!
A very stressful business toy design but if you had the talent a good time.
THAT is some man. Thanks for the link.
I had the red Bronco! The dogs didn't trust it.
I so want to see the film! Some people just have the magic.
