Childhood Toy

[oldhamfan]

This will seem to be in the wrong section wherever I post it but I'd love to have an answer.

When I was a child, I had a plastic meccano set, except it wasn't called Meccano. It was long pieces of plastic, a lot bigger than meccano, black nuts and bolts and a plastic spanner. I'd love to know what it was called.

The only clue I have is my sister seems to think it began with J. Can anyone help?

Thanks for any responses in advance.

Struggling with this one, i'm thinking maybe Connetrix, failing that, maybe it was Meccano Junior as far as the 'J' is concerned.

Thanks for trying Daisho, it's neither but very similar to Connetrix. I might have to hypnotically regress my mother to see if I can find out as it is bugging me!

It will have been around circa 1983 when I was very young.
