Dealer Displays

Toy dealers could order display setups to show off the Billy Blastoff offerings in "pilfer-proof" clear covering. The full set displays came ready to go with a full set mounted to a show board with a clear dome over them.

1969


This looks to be the earliest example of a display set. This set sold on eBay 9/30/2020. The seller stated: "Billy's arms are broken and there is a break on another car. I do not know what toys came in the actual display but what you see is what is going with the display." So, it seems that the red toy in the back is obvoiusly not part of the display but what's mind-boggling is the color scheme on the Lunar Crawler. First I've seen of that. Kind of split on whether that is from an international set or a prototype. I do believe this is a US display set based on the cards. The display itself is obviously older lacking the outer ring and headline bar with the selling points on the cards inside.

This amazingly pristine boxed Robbie Robot display has been available on eBay for some time. Un-sold as off 10/10/2020. It's pricy but it's pretty perfect too.

From the US 1969 Eldon dealer catalog.
