brown coupe is a 1979-1985 oldsmobile toronado, silver sedan is a toyota cressida, red sedan looks like a datsun

I think the red sedan might actually be a Corolla

Huh, that’s actually a real (or was a real) company. For some reason the
façade looked a bit fake (like it was quickly put together for the movie)

I thought it looked familiar. I used to love Children's Palace when I was a kid. I got a lot of Micro Machines there (another brand that is no longer with us).

My God, there was one at Randhurst complex at Mt. Prospect, IL I used to go there when I was young. Now defuncted.

Anyway, back to the cars, was it for the silver sedan or the red one?

I agree with wagonmaster about the Cressida. The red one looks Datsun'ish for me, too. Sunny or so, I guess.

This Child World was in Forest Park, IL. It has been demolished.

"Child World" sounds so out-of-the-way uppity. Like a place where you can literally buy children.

^ Many places these days have "Baby Change" facilities, presumably so that if you don't like yours, you can swap it for a better one??

Yeah, I've seen those as well...

This translation pretty much crapped itself:

(in German it says "changing table" like it's an Excel document that's constantly updating itself)

Sorry for going slightly off-topic, but did you know there were various blind alleys on the long road to safe child travelling by car? One of them was a top-mounted stretcher which easily allowed the little fellow to reach breath-taking speed in case of an emergency stop, completely unhindered by seat backs or any other stuff that might have gotten in the way - long before the Bay City Rollers sang 'Bye Bye Baby'!

Well, this was the same era that brought us atomic energy lab kits with real uranium. Truly the fifties was the most deadly stupid era of all times.
