I'm looking for outdoor playground equipment : see-saws, swings, etc. Does anyone recall seeing something like this?

Artista makes these.
Plasticville also has playground equipment, including a pool. Search online.
Jan,
These are all Plasticville with a touch of paint added.
They are inexpensive and shouldn't be hard to find.

Lionel made operating playgrounds . That look and operate very well .
I like the Lionel 6-24138 operating playtime playground, although I don't own one, Id like to pick it up some day.

This is one of my favorite accessories. The animations are superb and the trash cans on/off switch is a plus.

I agree. One thing though with the base it's always good to have a plan to hide the edges or sink it into foam overlay or other layer.
I just installed one of Lionels playset in my drive-in theatre. It works great. I cut it into the surface so the unit is flush. Will then fill in the gaps, alter the solid green surface a little, add some weeds at the base of the poles and add a few adults watching. JP
I believe Selley Finishing Touches (Bowser) also made white metal (pewter) playground equipment...sliding board, see-saw, swing set, kids' merry-go-round, basket ball hoop, etc.. While Bowser is no longer making the product line, I've been surprised to find they sometimes have lingering minimal supplies of some of their discontinued lines (e.g., turntables and their detail parts). You might give them a direct call/email and inquire.
The product line...HO and O...was quite extensive. I'm sorry to see it out of production. I have no idea whether any attempt was made by Bowser to sell the line to another producer. It's sad to see our choices for detail parts, figures, etc., gradually fade away. Such is life.
FWIW, of course...

Not a great pic, but here it is sunk into the foam with an ice cream truck nearby and a youngster on a bicycle passing through.
