Superhero cartridge gun toy

[sarcymarky]

Hi All,

I just remembered a toy/game that I used to have around the mid to late 70's but can't recall the name or find any info on it.

Basically you had these superhero bullet thingies with wheels on the bottom (think I had spiderman and captain america) that you put into a plastic cartridge. The catridge and bullet were loaded into this big spring powered gun which you then fired along the floor at some cans or something.

That's all I have I'm afraid. Anyone remember??

Cheers

Mark

YES!! Nice one Mulletino.

I seem to remember the cars being super heors with little plastic capes on them or that could just be the dementia kicking in.

Oh yes, this forum is a bloody life line!

Fantastic, never had one but I've played with one. Loved the way you loaded the car into the gold bullet and popped it in shot gun stylee.

Made my day that.
