Post Searching for a specific type of merry go round tin toy
I figured that with how knowledgeable and resourceful some people here are, this would be a good place to ask. I am looking for a merry go round tin toy, like the one from the movie Love Me If You Dare (pictured below). All of the ones I am finding are more complex, not just one big piece. Anybody have any leads?

Try Google search for "carousel tin box"
Look at search results in WEB and then try IMAGES. Looks like the UK is a good source for tins

It might not be a toy, but rather a food or biscuit tin like these ones:

Here's a probably newer hershey's one:

and a Churchill's

This might actually be the one from your picture for $5.99

(Mods feel free to remove these auction links if they bug anyone-I didn't think it was a big deal since its not a toy)

I think that's as wild & hilarious as a move called "Love me if you Dare" gets.

OMG HER BRA IS ON THE OUTSIDE OF HER SHIRT! :shock: a-oooga!
That movie was so crazy!

Thanks Missy! I hated the movie the first time I saw it, but like it more when I think about it. A second viewing is in order to determine a real opinion.
