thanks for the good tip. I have checked my spare models and found one model with smaller GPW. I think it should be the last code. It has GPW ø9,5x20 (exactly ø9,28mm), base plate type 2, cream crates and mask sprayed silver trim.

I'd agree with ø9.2 or ø9.3 x 20. Is yours also the pale straw variant, or is it the normal tan?

it is lighter as variation with MW and a little bit more yellow-brown as models with GPW.

Sounds like what I term "pale straw" (which is difficult to find, if only because the lighting at toyfairs is so awful).

Looks like three colours to me, with the normal GPW in pale straw. If so, that means there were two runs of the 9.3 x 20 GPW.
