Rick's Toybox Revisited

Please click here to visit Rick's Toybox on ebay

    I get a fair amount of e-mail asking me if I know where to get toy parts. I have several sources, and one of them is  Rick's Toybox, that you  can find on ebay, where Rick has a store. Not only does Rich have toy parts, but he also sells toys and decals of all sorts. I decided to revisit him today, and I discovered that he has expanded his toy parts and decals quite a lot.

Toy Parts & Decals

(Rick's Toybox)

   A few days ago, I was revisiting ebay when I came across some nice vintage reproductions of toy decals. A decal is a transfer that you place on a toy. It will contain the name of the toy, or the name of a fictitious name of a company. I browed the seller's  ebay store, and decided to contact him.  The name of the store is Rick's Toybox, and I assume that Rick is the owner. I didn't get Rick's family name, but will write him for that.

The famous patented Kingsbury wind-up mechanism, with the brake stopper to the left.

Kingsbury is the only toy company too have developed and patented this mechanism, and it was added to their toys for a long time.

   I've never seen the above Kingsbury truck, so I was fortunate to have found Rick's Toybox on 

ebay. When I ways buying and selling toys on ebay, I'd occasionally purchase toy parts for toys that were broken. I wrote several posts on how to repaint and fix toys. Also, some of the toys were missing parts. 

  Thankfully, there are companies such as Rick's Toybox, that are available for people who like to restore toys. In this case, you could even purchase a nice vintage truck such as the one above.

Thanks for dropping by,
