[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 172422, member: 55"]I have/had several (circa 1960). They are packed up somewhere, or I'd post a photo. Some had little faces painted on, others did not; and some came with a molded ramp or tray, about 6" long and as wide as the width of the capsule. The capsule could roll end-over-end down the tray when it was tilted; then one would tilt it the other way and it would roll back. It was sized so that at either end, the capsule ended in an upright position. For the amusement of children. Not sure what the name of the toy was. Here's a current version: [URL]http://www.mightybeanz.com/home.aspx[/URL] also available with a track/tray [URL]http://www.mightybeanz.com/products/series-5/mighty-beanz-slam-dunk-flip-track.aspx[/URL][/QUOTE]
