Jet Chopper...Corgi Batcopter clone

Looking for any info on this "jet chopper". I have searched and can't find anything. It's all high quality thick plastic, the exact same sculpt, size and really a clone of the Corgi 925 Batcopter at 6" long and 3" high (broken off tail wing). There are no makers markings and the wings turn thru a square sided insert hole/post like it shoud be placed on something to make the wings spin. Sitting in the cockpit is a loose all yellow figure. Any thoughts, perhaps its came from some larger playset that was motorized?

Pretty sure that's a generic AHI guy Lonnie. I have at least one from a body that was like AHI but unmarked and it crumbled.

Does anybody know who this is? Thanks for any info you might be able to share. He's eight inches tall, with no wrist articulation, possibly no elbow articulation, either.

Does anybody know who this is, and what he's from? It's Mego size. It fits a t-1 Mego body, as shown in the picture. Thanks for any info.

Hi all,new here.Joining and searching toy forums because I've become obsessed with finding the name
of a toy that I got in the late 70's-early 80's.It was a noise maker to be exact.I spent a lot of time in
Queens NY growing up,so I'm not sure if this toy was only available in that area.They were sold mostly
in candy/toy stores,five and dimes etc.Usually with the other junkie stuff from Asia,like
pump water rockets,disc guns,cap bombs,etc.

Description:I remember a blue plastic cane similar to the control stick of a fisherPrice rolling cornball popper.
On one end was a plastic piece to grip the cane,on the other end was what looked like a yellow plastic(I think) device
that held what seemed like half a Black rubber ball (I swear it looked like a handball)What you did was insert a
piece of paper or cardboard in to the device then the ball half was secured on top of the paper,and then you took
the cane and slammed it on the ground popping the paper and making a loud bang.

If you know the name,please let me know.Thanks.

Looks like it might be from a Christmas decoration of some sort. How big is it?

Do you know which company made a toy bird that really flew and flapped it's wings? It was awesome and forgotten in time.

Also, what are the possible choices for 'matchbox' size metal spaceships with little plastic seats?

Who made those hard green and yellow balls that clanged together on a string?

Was it Marx that made non-movable small blue knights and fire elementals?

What manufacturer made vintage plastic spartan miniatures for museums?

That is most of what I have not identified in toys.

Thanks!

From the mid to late 70's?

Tootsie Toys, although they were mainly earlier than the 70's for Spaceships.
Dinky Toys was making a ton of gorgeous late 60's early 70's die cast stuff. Gerry Anderson, Star Trek, James Bond, Batman, You name it.
Popy had a large assortment of Space and Super vehicles that Mattel brought over as sub components of their Shogun Warriors line. The vehicles were from things like Sentai and Ultraman shows, etc.

Who made those hard green and yellow balls that clanged together on a string?
They were called Clackers. Or Clack Clacks. They were made by a bunch of companies. Famously when they were banned the Feds could not find a company to go after so they sued a shipping container full of them found in a customs dock.

An Outfit called Ace Novelty Company was in some way involved in that shipment.
