REB/Castings

Chicago Ill., Longwood Fla., Washington State 1972-Present

In 1974 Bob Blanc, who was a Sales and Product Development manager with RAPCO left the company and started REB Toys. He then purchased RAPCO's entire tooling and mould inventory and founded Castings Inc., starting out in Illinois, then moving to Longwood Florida, and finally to Washington state. He restarted the production of the metal moulds (using zymac alloy) using the original Rapaport Brothers patterns. Bob expanded the company offerings with silicone rubber moulds of fully round models of both humans and animals, with the humans being approximately 1/32 scale.

 Sadly the REB/Castings website no longer exists. The good news however is Dunken Co. appears to have at least the inventory from REB Toys if not the actual patterns.
