Vintage Tin Battery Op Machine Gun Drill (Crawling Firing Soldier), China, EXiB Click images to enlarge Description
Vintage Tin Battery Op Machine Gun Drill (Crawling Firing
Soldier), Made in China. EXiB
A nice vintage tinplate battery operated Machine Gun Drill (a
Crawling Firing Soldier Toy) in dark green uniform with nicely
lithographed detail, dark brown rubber boots (removeable to
fit into box), soft vinyl head and helmet, and tinplate and plastic
machine gun, made by an unknown maker in China
probably in the 1950s or 60’s, in the original box.
A great battery toy powered by two “C” batteries, it features a
Soldier firing a machine gun while crawling forward. When
switched on, the soldier moves slowly forward, then stops
and moves its head as though sighting a target, and then
fires, before the actions are repeated. The gun lights
up when fired.
Measuring 14 inches long by 3.75 wide and 4 inches tall,
the toy is in excellent condition, the tinplate is clean as is
the battery box. All the actions work well and it is marked
“ME 644 Made in China” on the underside.
A nice working vintage battery toy in excellent condition
and comes in an excellent original box with great
images, also fully marked, and hard to find.
