    More S.W.A.T!


    Great that theme song ain't leaving my head anytime soon. Eventhough I'm not even sure I've ever seen an episode of this series, I will admit to thinking that playset of theirs is one of the coolest vinyl sets the 70s had to offer. I'm a sucker for anything that has those old giant reel to reel computers on it.

          I love these and need that accessory set!! Only need a couple more of the variant figures, too.
          I got the playset and van in an ebay auction awhile back but due to misrepresentation and tricky pics I got a little ripped off. Did come to an agreement on a fair price and was reimbursed.
          Anyone know what (if anything) came with the playset as far as accessories go? If anyone has a trashed van for parts I need the light bar on the roof and the steering wheel!!!

            I only had Street as a kid, but now, besides the playset & etc, I only need Luca. Mark my words Luca...one day you will be mine. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

              Cool playset. Question: Did the figures actually fit inside the van or was it horribly out of scale?

                Probably my favorite toys ever. All around well done. You need to watch a few episodes if you enjoy 70's cop stuff.

                  Great pics! Yeah, pretending to be a cop in some form or another was standard fodder for a kid in the 70's. In the early 70's it was Adam-12, then SWAT, and by the time Starsky & Hutch rolled around in '76 I was completely into it. I'll never forget that SWAT was taken off the air, NOT because it had bad ratings, but because the studio felt the series was just too...GRITTY. Of course that was the 70's but STILL, when you see it today the thugs are...well... very decaff. Still love the show though.

                    I remember watching the show and liking it a lot. I wouldn't mind getting into the toy and figures.

                        I'll take a couple pics later to give you an idea. It's a tight fit but they will go in.

                          They'll go in the van. 2 in the front and the others sitting in the back. As a kid I never knew about the van or playset. I used my Batlab for them. I still need to pick up that playset.

                            I have duplicates of some but only one Luca or I might have considered selling you one.
