Thanks for your hard work Nick. I always appreciate you updating and adding to the Superfast pages on your website mate. Are you planning to cover any further SF variations in the future?

Glad to see you are still adding to this. In your comment about the Brazil issues, you mentioned they could be found with almost any label. From my experience, the Roly issues are almost always found without a label. The only label I have found on them is the green 8 label on the later Inbrima issues. Of course, there could be variations I am not aware of.

Thanks Alex, This is not all the colors I have seen, these are just the ones I have managed to acquire. I think there is a fairly solid chronology with when these models with regard the timeline of colors used and what labels were applied. They are not like those Bulgarians you love so much which have seemingly endless variants :-)

Merry Christmas,
David

I just wonder why they chose to fit different coloured dorrs on their models, surely real cars in their Country don't run around looking like that, do they?

I am so pleased to see that you continue to collect David, I would love to see some more of the Brazilian Matchbox you have acquired.
