And I resemble that remark.
But, these figures are really cool!

What a great collection!
Where is Pitchy, he'd love these !
By the looks of the weather out the window and to the west this evening, he's probably buried in snow! I'm sure he would carve his own and find a way to roll his own smokes. 8)

Think you'd better order up at least a carton of smokes for each of those gents as they seem to puff their way through them pretty fast! ;c)
Well... I did buy 400 and received a bonus 20, BUT they are much smaller than these older ones and don't make as nice of a smoke ring :-\

Nick can you send me the link for the Replacement ciggies from the Ukraine as mine only came with a couple.
Phil, these are the new ones I got, but unfortunately they are much smaller... I am thinking a short piece of copper pipe stuck in the figures mouth to act as a cigarette holder. I cannot find any larger smokes. They can be bought in packs of 40, 100, or 200 and the more you buy, the cheaper they get. If you know what size you need, I can measure mine to let you know if the new ones are too small.

The old/originals are in a bag on the right with a tag "Made in Japan"

Funny little buggers these, and thanks for serving me a trip down memory lane Nick.
Think their from the 70īs or there about, as i remember the first one we got...primarely due to my own begging for it, while at a large annual horse and trading market here in Denmark back in the mid 70īs.
That sounds about right as to when my grandparents would have bought their's. My grandpa couldn't believe that I found cigarettes still being made for them and I won't be surprised if more of these figures are added to my collection... They can be easily hidden on the shelves within the engines :D

Found these in an antique shop for $10, each with a pack of 20 smokes. Went on ebay a couple days later and now I have 400 cigarettes on the way from Ukraine :D
Not the most exciting video, but wanted to include all of the good smoke rings
