    Just imagine how much those are worth today!

    I bet not a single kid was "accidentally" shot by police while playing with those when they were new.

    I had the Dick Tracy version of it. It was a lot of fun.

    Did anyone notice that the burglar was "Otis Campbell" from the Andy Griffith Show?

    I had a mattel shootin shell Winchester , it had Brass? cases with a spring inside and room for a green cap on the back , the bullet was plastic when you fired it the hammer would fire the cap and the force was also enough to over come the spring tension and the bullet would exit the barrel .. my uncle managed to loose all my bullets one afternoon [V]

    I had the SAA with the shootin shell ammo.

    Completely missed the Detective Set though. This morning being the first time I saw it .... only missed it by 54 years !
