<p><strong>I&#8217;m going to assume that a lot of these toys employed recycled tooling. Remco may have been the leading &#8220;Label Slap&#8221; toy company before the name was sold to <a href="http://azrakhamway.com">Azrak-Hamway</a> in 1973.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Also, I want to highlight the glib use of the word &#8220;Mod&#8221; on toys of that era. What exactly makes a pup tent &#8220;Mod?&#8221;<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-23838" src="https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-791x1024.jpg" alt="Beaver Patrol" width="791" height="1024" srcset="https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-791x1024.jpg 791w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-232x300.jpg 232w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-768x994.jpg 768w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-1187x1536.jpg 1187w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-1583x2048.jpg 1583w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-1140x1475.jpg 1140w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-848x1097.jpg 848w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2-600x776.jpg 600w, https://plaidstallions.com/reboot/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/beaver2.jpg 1700w" sizes="(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;ve gone this long without an official Beaver Patrol Utility set! I must remedy this post haste.</strong></p>

<p><strong>I&#8217;m not sure how well these toys sold but I&#8217;d like to think Remco was also working on an &#8220;Official Bikini Inspector&#8221; line which included a box of bikinis, a magnifying glass and a rubber stamp. I stole this joke from Bruce McCollough. </strong></p>
