    His World War Two-themed display gave collectors at a toy fair in Nuremberg a reich shock.

    Plastic models of the Führer, giving his Nazi salute, were being offered for £4.50 each.

    And there was an open-topped car containing the evil dictator and several SS bodyguards for £20.

    The stall also offered tanks with swastikas, war bunkers and Luftwaffe aircraft.

    Organisers of the Spielwarenmesse International Fair were forced to close the stall after it was branded “filth” by the local press.

    Under German law any memorabilia linked to the Nazis is illegal.

    The stall-holder raged at a reporter: “I do not know what you want, you clown.”

    Organiser Ernst Kick said: “We are furious. This breaches German law.

    “The Hitler figures have disappeared and we are investigating.”

    Very suprising for this to have been tolerated by the Germans. Yes, the stall was closed but only after the press reported on it.

    i have attended the Toy Fair in the past and having Nazi themed toys is not new. There are many die-cast Nazi military toys with Nazi symbols.
