Rotten wood, rusty frames

Decided to make a post about something that I didn’t know was anything special until about a week ago. I purchased this “3D face” S. C. Ruffey at a Value Village over a year ago, and supposedly it’s a rather uncommon toy.


As you can see it’s in rather good condition. Comparing it to the regular S. C. Ruffey freight car, the higher level of detail is quite obvious. I still somehow find myself preferring the original however! I’m not sure what it is, but I think it might be the character-filled snarling face compared to the “3D face” being a little stoic. Apologies for the bashed in front end on my regular S. C. Ruffey, I’m not sure how I managed that one! -MagicRail
