Also good to hear that there was something worth buying at Falkirk!

Cheers Mick, the #35 was a rebuild to be honest, i bought the body from Jason which was missing the ladder, wheels and axel clips. So i used parts from a beater #35 to give this one a new lease of life and i am very happy with it, and for a change Falkirk came up trumps, a lovely #29 pumper for very little money so i can't complain!!!

Thanks for your comments JB and Reg always appreciated.

Reg i now have an Orange and an Orange/Pink wildcat with the alternate labels with unpainted bases. I am still looking for a pink one with the unpainted base. The wildcat #8 is one of my favourite SF's as there are so many variations to collect!!!

Thanks Jeff, I try to look for rarer variations to be honest as i like the challenge!!. They are out there if you are patient enough you can find them, and please don't get concerned that you have finally seen the light, whilst i love all my regular wheel collector friends (I have a fair few RW's myself), the wonderful world of SUPERFAST is a joy to behold and you will be kept busy looking for the rare variations. Just make sure you do your homework on the variations out there as there a lot of fakers looking to take advantage of the unwary. Take your time and learn your trade!!

I have been collecting for a long time and i still make mistakes, so stick to what you can afford and don't be afraid to put questions to the SF experts here on the forum. Happy collecting mate

I have managed to add some more Brazilians to my collection!!

I have shown the #13 Brazilian Baja buggy and the #43 Dragon wheels next to standard Matchbox England model to show the colour shade difference.
