Ceji Actarus + Alcor
 |
| Alcor + Actarus, Ceji, France, 1977 |
These are the figurines I had as a kid, and yes, they are in one piece again ! Thanks to the great restauration work of Ricardo Leite / Toybroker here in Lisbon (and his patience with a cutter) ! Obrigado Ricardo 😊 !
Like a lot of toys from that area, the rubber joints that were used for the articulations did not survive and had to be replaced, as well as the hands (resin repros).
