This one is for Mick, when I saw the colour I knew I had seen it somewhere before.

This is an absolutely rare find Jason if it is a color trial in darker yellow similar to what Sms88 had shown earlier on the old forum. This would make yours the 2nd specimen of note.Do enjoy Jason but i sometimes wonder what type magicical powers u possess to detect these rarities in the nooks & crannies.....lol. ;) :D
Please add a pic of the base.
Thanks,

Awesome find Jason :o - was it on ebay or from a private source? Does it have a tow guide and has the baseplate been plated or is it raw mazak?

Numi this one I have to put down to right place at the right time, I have added a base picture for reference.
The base is raw mazak and has the tow guide, was sort of through ebay really(with some others :D ).

Jason,

Can you confirm what other models this colour on the Muira would compare to?

It looks very similar to the orange colour on the SF#56 BMC 1800?? Are you able to do a comparison shot??

Absolutely glorifying Jason !!
This base casting alone on a deeper yellow color trial is almost an impossibility to find let alone a yearning thereof.
Im happy for Jason...enjoy. :D

Hi MM
Looked at quite a few models, closest really was my king K19 and the 63 crane. I have added a couple of pictures. J
