| WKW is the term used to describe white knob windups. These cute toys powered by a micro-motor first hit the stores in the early 70's taking over from the traditional clockwork powered toys of the day. Each of these guys walk forward when wound, just be careful not to overwind. These really are beautifully produced. We love white knob windups for sure! |

Pokemon Wind-Ups
You'd have thought that the Pokemon (or Pocket Monsters in Japan) phenomenon would have run its course by now but with the Diamond and Pearl versions on the DS and plenty more cards for kids to swap in the playground it's still up there, holding its own against Yu-Gi-Oh and the other pretenders to the crown.
What we've got here are some classic Pokemons in wind-up form. You know the sort of thing - turn the little white knob and away they go. Each one comes in a kit form but is fully pre-painted and easy to put together. There are some really nice actions here as they wobble and walk their way across your desktop. |
