Both absolute crackers!

Excellent - both are fabulous!

A difficult call, but here's my second model.

Fabulous - condition looks good too. A great find.

Here’s the first of mine. It’s a prepro K7b in the orange of the first box illustrations. I can’t find any mention of one in orange, so for now it’s unique!

It truly is a toss up for me this year. The Grand Prix set is something I have been after for a while and the 26a with SPW is one of the best I have seen. Super excited to add both of these to my collection this past year. I did have to replace the models in the gift set as they were not on the same level as the box itself. I am still waiting on 2 models from Germany to complete the swap.

I have to add this Major size No10 Mechanical Horse this year as one of my best for 2020. J

Second will have to be the 27c with blue base. J

I hoped we’d see that unreleased Mechanical Horse - amazing!

It's not much to look at, but it's a variation I've been after for a long time: the first casting of the 20a without the brace between the cab and the backboard.

Very nice, I know you've been hunting that one for a while now.
