The Toy House No. 406 Buckboard REDUX - Got A Guy Riding Shotgun

After digging through my bins, I found the loose companion to The Toy House Buckboard driver. This is the 'guy riding shotgun' pose and yes, mine is a slightly different color but it is the right pose. I still have two of these buckboard's still in their bags. One of them has both poses, while the other one has two driver figures. This figure was supposed to have a tab on his butt which fits into a slot in the wagon seat, but it appears that tab was cut off. It doesn't make much of a difference other than with the tab in place, he would be forced to sit at an angle on the seat - looking to his left. Anywho, here's a couple of shots of the buckboard with both figures. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

The Toy House No. 406 Buckboard REDUX - Built-up

I broke down and bought a mint-in-bag Toy House Buckboard for the sole purpose of assembling it. Overall, it's as good as any other of the similar sized wagons out there. I only had one small disappointment - my package, though still mint - included two wagon drivers instead on one driver and one riding shotgun (no biggie because I did see that guy in my stash of figures). The toy was photographed as it came out of the bag. It measures 10 1/4" (26.03cm) L x 3 3/8" (8.57cm) W x 2 3/8"(6.03cm) H (to top of wagon seat back). Enjoy! Opa Fritz



The front wheels are a different color than the rear wheels. I looked at my other bagged examples and they're all like that.

This bag had two drivers. One of the figures should have been a guy riding shotgun.

The Toy House No. 406 Buckboard in Original Header Bag - Yellow

Guess what I got? Another Toy House Buckboard, but this time in yellow. It's not a real bright lemon yellow, but rather a very muted yellow tone. In any case, now I'm wondering how many other colors this was made in? This acquisition was the result of a random search, "Hmmm, I wonder what other things The Toy House made?" and this popped up! Cool :-) Enjoy! Opa Fritz
