Wondering if any of you have seen one of these before ?   It's a plastic toy and the only markings are "Made in Hong Kong" , of course . Could there be other Mini Deal's Wheels out there somewhere ?  |

I have seen a couple of these versions in toy stash... and there are times I seen them showing up in e bays... I had known this and decided not to buy any of them.. dont want to end up being a pack rat  Yet theres another options I can do with them as in fixing up and what ever.. making it one of a kind I have seen a humbug in "1/12" scale which is motorized or remote control. I find it a big thing and did once thought of getting it but .... nah. |

I have a wind up VW bug which is a very close copy of the Bug Bomb , and I have two cars that I've had since I was a kid made by ZEE toys - one is a copy of the Silhouette but with Deals Wheels style tires and the other resembles Tognotti's T ,also with Deals tires . I'm sure there must have been a lot of knock off toys made back then !
