Another toy that I had when I was very small and was one of my favourites was a little guy who rode on a three wheeler. The three wheeler was a pull back toy. The guy, which was the part that I really liked, was very fragile and small (2" maybe?). The only parts that moved on him were his legs by a fixed plastic axle that ran through his pelvis and his arms which moved together from a fixed axle that ran through his chest. This toy really reminded me of an acrobat and I would twirl him on a toothpick and would look really cool like a gymnast. He also looked great on his 3-wheeler, which had knobby rubber tires if I remember correctly. The guy also I think came with a sticker number on his back like someone in a race would have. I want to say that he was a tomy toy but I can't say for sure. I had a couple of these as I loved them so much and they would break easily. I'm pretty sure one had a red torso and grey arms and legs and another had a blue torso and yellow arms and legs. They were helmeted characters but it was all part of the body, did not come off. Anyone know what these were?

I don't now what they were called but I think I had 2 of them. I remember getting one for X-mas in my stocking!! I think it was about 1985-86 maybee. It was the one with the blue torso and yellow arms & legs. Not so long after I was out with my nan and I saw them in a shop and they had 2 different ones and she bought me the one I needed- it had a yellow torso and blue arms & legs. I think they were the same thing your talking about I remember also they had a sticker number on the back. I can remember more about the little riders more than the vehicles. I had the men for quite a long time after the vehicles broke!
