SECRET AGENT 009 & SECRET AGENT 008

The Mysterious Agent oo9 Set
Agent  009 Mission  Contents


2 More recent Hong Kong trash rack toys..both are Secret Agent 008 & 009..both with very similar designs, very pop-art shadow looking characters, i got these both from the E bay, and both were with lots of other Hong Kong cheap toys that i wasn't really interested in, i asked the seller if they would separate the lots, and they very kindly agreed.
The above set contains a plastic gun, with the words ' automatic gun giant' written on it, a nice Spy ring with gun Emblem, a badge, and a pack of roll caps, a very interesting and nice set, made in Hong kong, and the USA by the Larami corp who made a lot of toys based on Movies & Tv shows,Battlestar Galactica being one.


The above gun is the Secret Agent 008 water pistol, these came on a card in Various colours, with Slightly different designs, the colour of the agents  faces varies with some having a slightly Pink shade to them, very odd!..i have no idea of the year, i would once again, hazard a guess at the late 60's early 70's..I've no idea if there was an Agent oo6 of similar design..i know there's an Agent 007! obviously they couldn't, or didn't do that because of licensing issues.
If you have any secret Agent 00-whatever number of a similar design, please get in touch.
