I use brolly anchors mainly if I have to, but I got a few of these heavy duty toggles years ago, but never have seen them since.
They have a solid piece of metal brace but have a spring linked to a collar so you can fit it without the bolt and it will never fall out, unlike old type spring toggles - even if you have to remove the bolt someday.
Anyone seen them before or know if they are available?

I remember seeing plastic versions of them but can't remember who made them. Maybe unifix.
 
They look great never seen them before

Yes, probably one of the very best toggles I have ever come across. Ideal for where there is an existing hole in plasterboard from a previous spring toggle and can be replaced with one of the above, so that rad brackets or electric shower, etc can be removed and replaced any amount of times.

Can you remember who makes them or what they're called mate?

That's the problem, unfortunately I have no idea. I got some of them a few years ago. I normally use toggles (brolly anchors) only if I must and I kept the type in the photos for the odd occasion they are perfect for.
I think they were expensive. Can't see them online

Shame! They look really strong...

Yes, - solid, flat piece of metal for the brace, and it is thick enough to enable it to have plenty of threads for the bolt. The collar attached with a spring is ingenious.
I am going to keep searching for them.
