Thank's Ian for the offer. If I fail in securing one, I will happily take yours, so hold on to it for a bit longer.

I won't allow Marmaduke in any Newsagents for that very reason... :lol:

Hello Gerrit.

Yes you do see a Chinese made 1/24 red Phantom VI...so with the back story thank's to you buying the model in the first place and now being seen by a very large audience, it is currently the most famous 24th scale Phantom VI model I know of... :D

Some of my ''FAB 1'' models.

That 'Yesteryear' Armoured Car.

Louis Marx Silver Wraith in plastic. American and British versions. The side the driver sits denotes which version it is!!

The other pictures seen in the article I don't have, sorry!
