Dinky Enterprise

Oh my, do I love this toy. What with it's shooting disks, ejectable shuttle and the fact that it's a toy first and not some franklin mint piece. Sometimes, I think I appreciate something like this more than an exact replica.
More on Dinky Toys very soon...

    My brother had one of these, but I nicked it! We actually played with it, and it may still be in my mother's basement. Happy days.

    I had one of those and I had forgotten all about it until this post! My cat hated those disks.

    "Dinky Toys"--hands-down winner of worst toy company name ever.

    I seem to remember the disk shooting enterprise was going to be made into a refit for ST TMP. I remember the art. No--I'm not talking about the smaller die-cast--which was better than ERTLs
