This surely was the best SF prepro & crossover selection that i had ever seen. Im sure almost all of us hadnt known that this auction was taking place so its now best to have a lie-down & cry...... :cry: :cry:
Good luck to any members on here who had a feast :D

I had a look and while there was genuine rare stuff in the Auction, there was some strange stuff, like a 'Pre-Pro' Jeep in Brown which to me looked just like a re-paint with the Engine component missing, you could still see the Yellow plastic of the wheels...!

Then some classic cars described as 'Yesteryear' prototypes when in fact they were just plastic kits from Matchbox and Revell and the range of 48th scale plastic kits included a Packard as already found in the 'Yesteryear' range, so these plastic kits are far from prototype 'Yesteryears'...!

A 'Prototype' Pontiac GTO in White is surely just a 'Colour Trial' as it has the 'Open' narrow 'Superfast' wheels...!

Does anyone actually look at the forum topics anymore or just rush straight to the keys and start typing when they see something that excites them?
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

Not at all (although I think this is perhaps a slightly better area). It was just that there was already a thread running (this one).

Sorry i put this in the wrong place to start,it was hard to pick the right furum has the interesting items covered regular,superfast,yesteryear and kingsize, :D
i won 5 lots,all risky so will have to see,and has we are in the superfast fast furum one lot was these,please notice the different sized wheels on the the orange ford tractors and hopefully the green case is as yet unknown in green.
regular collectors will notice the two shades of green on the john deere and their steering wheels,fingers crossed.
