I got one like that for Christmas when I was little!! A couple of weeks later, the handle snapped off, and my mum threw it away

I don't know why I wanted it because I had my own real Junior 1346A to play with at the time!

OMG - I had one of those! Not seen one anywhere since. I got it for crimbo when I was 3, and the same thing happened with mine that happened to Jacks - the handle snapped and it was thrown out. I got a toy 550 for my next birthday, so I was made up about that

It seems the toy wasn't any stronger than the 'glass' TP Autoflex U2336 it shares a colour-scheme with! Be careful with it, Mark!

I had that exact one as a toy also, I loved it, I think mine broke also but I remember xmas day at about 6pm everyone was sat down around the tv watching it and me and my brother with our toy hoovers messing about with them.

Fond memories eh!

Did this work like the old push-along Juniors with the friction motor?
