Dandy the Lion had three actions that were controlled by tapping his chin with a whip colored with fabric. He'd move forward, backward and would rear up. The basic idea was that Junior could be a lion tamer and control this ferocious(?) beast. He didn't work when I found him and I was lucky to find another beat up one and I canabilized the part to make this one work. While apart he'd rear up just fine, but I think the weight of his body and head made him struggle to rear up. Perhaps he has, as Fred G. Sanford would say, "Arf-a-ri-tis", and he has to be helped to rear up, as seen in Part 2 and 3. I will figure it out someday.

A vintage Jimmy Jet in action. Deluxe Reading sold these in grocery and drug stores and their toys were place on the top shelves to keep grubby little hands like mine from them. I remember bugging the heck out of my parents for this toy and many others. Most of Deluxe's toys were big and fanstastic! The grocery and drug stores had lay away for the items because most of these toys cost a week's salary back then. Please excuse the filming. I was sick when I was doing the filming and looking through a view finder. The lights were dimmed so you could see how it operates.

A cool battery operated from the 60's from Ideal Toy Corporation. King Zor came with a dart gun (not shown)and 5 or 6 darts. You were supposed to shoot King Zor's tail and if you hit it, he'd turn, and fire yellow balls at you. I wouldn't dare shoot his tail now for fear of breaking the it! You can nudge the tail to get the same effect. Oh man, please forgive the filming. This when I started doing toy vids and the TV was on in the background and I was looking through a view finder and trying to make sure Zor didn't fall off of the table, all at the same time. I now use a tri-pod. I will do another in the near future. If any one has this or parts, I need some, especially the box and some darts. Co
