Vintage Winneco Blue Tyrannosaurus rex Dinosaur

Description: Here for sale is One Vintage Winneco Blue Tyrannosaurus rex Dinosaur that is in excellent condition. At first glance, you may think that this is an MPC dinosaur, but it is not. In 1972, Winneco (formerly Payton) copied 12 of the 24 MPC dinosaurs (much like MPC had earlier copied some of the Marx dinosaurs) and produced their own set of figures that are about 90 percent as large as the MPC figures. Winneco also used brighter colors than those typically used by MPC. Additionally, Winneco molded some of their figures with the tails of the animals pointing upward and the necks of the figures pointed downward. The 12 Winneco Dinosaurs include the Allosaurus, the Ankylosaurus, the Brontosaurus, the Cynognathus, the Dimetrodon, the Kronosaurus, the Plateosaurus, the Pteranodon, the Stegosaurus, the Styrachosaurus, the Trachodon, and the Tyrannosaurus rex. Today, the Winneco dinosaurs are rather rare and highly collectible. This ancient creature needs a new, permanent home. Perhaps you could use this brightly-colored figure to complete your collection or diorama. I do have a few extras of most of the Winneco Dinosaurs, so if you need a specific color of this dino, please text me so that I can check for you. Relive the magic! The reference that I use for this listing is Dinosaur Playsets - An Illustrated Guide to the Prehistoric Playsets of Marx and MPC - Expanded Edition, by Jeffrey S. Pfeiffer that was published in 2016. This exhaustive publication is typically available on eBay from the author. All items come from a smoke-free environment. The item(s) shown in the photos here are the item(s) that you will receive. Please look at all of the photos, read all of this description, and ask any questions before bidding as there are no returns unless I make a material mistake in this listing. If there is a tape measure shown in any of the photos, please note that it does not come with the listing. Please consider that shipping costs are typically much more expensive than many of us realize. I will use first class mail for this sale to help keep costs down. I use new or occasionally gently-used sturdy boxes that typically have a 200-pounds-per-square-inch bursting test rating. I ship only to the 50 American States, the District of Columbia, and Canada. Whenever possible, I will gladly combine shipping costs. I do this by approximately splitting the savings for shipping on the second and subsequent items and then issuing a refund within about two days after a package is shipped. Please note, however, when a package weighs just over 16 ounces that the shipping cost can be about double of the cost of sending a package that is just under 16 ounces. Local pickup in the Spokane area is also available at no charge. For our cousins up North, shipping charges for items delivered in Canada will be substantially more than those listed for delivery to U.S. destinations and start at approximately $18.00 (USD) for small items weighing less than 16 ounces. If you need any hard-to-find Vintage Andy Gard, Auburn, Ideal, Marx, MPC, Payton, or Timmee Army, Dinosaur, or Space Toys, please email me and I can potentially list these items on eBay with the Buy-It-Now option to help you fill out your own collection. I will give positive feedback once I have received the same from the buyer. If there is any issue that comes up upon receiving an item, please contact me so that I can make it right. Thanks so much for looking. You may wish to look at some of my similar items or visit my eBay Store. You may also wish to add my site to your list of Favorite Sellers.
