Thinking back, I remember one under the flats in Old Swan, was it Nurseryworld ? Anyway, thats where we got our toy soldiers and gun emplacments ! There was also the Bike shop in Broadgreen Road, superb for the airfix models, Sullivans, for Subbuteo sets. Oh, just remembered... When my dad used to take us on the ferry, over to New Brighton, when we got back to Liverpool, I'm sure we'd walk through town, see "The Buckets", then onto prescot Road and along by the Ice Rink used to be C.Vans ( hope I got the name right ). It was an aladdins cave of toys, fantastic for young kids to get a list together for Santa, in JUNE !

Just remembered too, I got Striker one year for Christmas, it only lasted a couple of days, my eldest ( heavy handed brother, god bless him ) pressed too hard on the heads and crushed them ! ( sorry for going off thread ! )
