I have two different one's and not the land of origin. Maybey you have the 3rd one.

Sorry I do not understand; please explain!

So far I have never noticed any differences on this model's baseplates, but as in many other cases there may be something I have overlooked. Anyway the Super GT Hi-Tailer was only made in China:

Thank you for the picture. Now I have to go to work. Will show soon the 2 other differences.
Have also seen that the models are with 1, 3 closed and 3 open supports of the trailer. Never seen the closed with 3 supports. (thanks Guy's for showing them)
In your list off the models there is no mention of the model with 3 closed supports. So there will be 9 models now.

Unitl later, Kurt

Christian, when I see your base there is no space after the serrounding with matchbox label.
As my eyes aren't what they used to be I could take just one good picture of one of mine.

You can see a space on the right sight off the serrounding machtbox with two horizontal lines (one short and one long).

There is also a variation, so far no picutre that has a little space between the label with matchbox on the right with just a point.

Any comments or pictures from other persons welcome. Kurt

Kurt,

well spotted, now you've shown it, its easy to see. Guess I now need to go check mine again.

So there would now be another 9 variations to be found.

Kurt, sorry I missed you mentioning the other base variation, look forward to seeing it.

Dont know if this is an error or a variation (its the 2nd one Ive seen) but the middle car has the black where the purple tampo should be & vice versa.
