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

The Toy House No. 406 Buckboard in Original Header Bag

Here's a nifty buckboard still in its original header bag. The bag includes the wagon, four wheels, hitch, horse, and driver. It's sold by "The Toy House" but after looking at the "Toy Soldier HQ" website (link in the sidebar) it's included under the Payton listings. Was it made by Payton and distributed by The Toy House? In any case, I've seen these being sold as MPC which they are not! MPC wagons are shorter, lack the wooden board detailing (more noticeable when looking at the two wagons up close and personal), the wheel axles are placed differently on the wagons, and the hitches are different. Also, MPC never offered wagons in this aqua color. One of these years I'd like to pick up a wagon just to take it out of the bag and play, but until then this one stays in the bag - Enjoy! Opa Fritz
