Hi Jason, nice spotting. Can you also check the details in my Red circles, the Copyright looks to be different, the gaurd for the 'Rollamatic' pin and clearly the rear-most 'Pat No' is different.

I don't know the 'Time-Line' for this particular model, but a change of patent number often indicates it has already been assigned to someone else for a similar feature and Lesney may have had to modify theirs, hence a different number on one of your baseplates.

Ghosty.

Mathias: Thank you! They were hard to find in such nice condition.

Reg: I do not see the motive for trying to pass genuine Brazil issues off as color trials. The value in comparable condition is about the same as a color trial.

Alex: Ha!

WTF is that fingerprint doing on the model on the right?......and more intriguingly who does it belong to??

Very nicely found Jason. I've lots of these and I checked them eargerly but no luck. This falls between the superfast and rolamatics pre-pros on Christian's site.

Yes I will have to get the CSI kit out and check the finger print, John you are probably correct about this model I am sure I have another one some where I will check for other differences. Kevin I will have to dig the model out and check the differences.
This one is an interesting model.

Hi Guys

here all my Landi Variants.












Cheers Mathias

Good comparison showing different wheels sizes, now question is are they 9.5 + 10.5 or 10.5 + 11.2 ???

Forgot to add a base shot showing the real colour underneath. J
