Any help identifying this vintage 7" long plastic toy plane is appreciated, including what type of plane, brand, year made, and what it might be missing would be appreciated.

Thanks for any help!

The links don't seem to work for me, Michael. Are photos still out of the question?

Links work now. I personally don't recognize that toy.

The type of plane is a Convair XF-92
It looks just like the Tootsietoy die cast version.
As for the manufacturer, I do not know that.
My guess is early 1950s for the model's time era - coinciding with that of the real plane.

Hi there! Yes, it's an XF-92 but I don't recognize the maker.
Not knowing it's size it's just a guess. Processed Plastics made things like this but they were good about putting their mark on their products.
Ditto for Tim Mee Toys, which was made by Processed Plastics.
Other thoughts could be Alden, Pyro, Eldon, Ideal, even Marx or Renwal.
Gotta be a mark on it somewhere!
