Found a toy metal airplane

[Coinstar magnet]

I found this near a fence after the house had been removed...I'm guessing 1940's, 1950's for a date?

Thanks

The wings look like a Spitfire but I don't get that bubble on top. Maybe even a Hawker Tempest? Not sure. Gary

It is modeled after the Boulton Paul Defiant fighter plane (British WW2), probably 1950's. Very cool find. Sub

Older toys are fun to find...much more solid...built to last...some kid was playing with it and left it outside perhaps...

Good ID. I knew it had the British look to it but that rear cockpit "bubble" was throwing me off. Gary

That's really cool! I remember playing with those when I was a kid. I had several types of those small little planes.
