G&S Wonkers Orange 68mm
G&S made a big deal of the fact that Kryptonics
had made these for G&S. They are similar in appearance and formula
to the Red Kryptonic. They have the metal washer insert too.
If I remember the adverts correctly, to 'wonk'
is to say Hi or something like that. (In the UK, calling someone a Wonker,
might result in a fight)

Inset - 7mm

G&S Roller Ball Orange
Taking the conical theme to it's most outrageous
conclusion, these roller balls were machined completely round.
This was not a new idea, back in 1977 a UK company called Looner Landscapes
launched a sililar wheel called the Fireball.
