Yes Al, great model with body and base variations as well as labels, the two hardest base variations to find are the metallic green and the unpainted ones. This is also one of those models that can be found with reversed wheels which were factory fitted errors resulting in the smaller front wheels being fitted to the rear and the larger rear wheels being fitted to the front.

Thanks, your comments are more than welcome.
I've to say it is near impossible to get Wildcats in mint condition for a resonable price.
My only source is eBay.
That's why i have only a few in near mint and most in play worn condition.
Anyway i'm happy to have different baseplates even two unpainted bases.

What a pity no one offered me the AMX with blue interior.
I know this variation, unfortunately i miss this one. I've seen one on Christians website. How many do exist?
Alex, you've got one, haven't you?

Sven it took me many years to get this one and it wasn't cheap, despite that I was delighted to add this one to my collection. I hope you will also be able to do so one day.

It's really nice, today I searched the AMX in the Toymart.
The current price was around 137 €. But as You can imagine, there was no AMX available.
Alone the red AMX reaches more than 100 €. So I think the 137 € are ridiculous.

With the Blue interior Javelin I would say that a mint or very near mint one would command a price of at least £500 at the moment, that is if you can find someone who has one to sell. Usually these only come up for sale when guys sell their collections.
