Yes it is a paler blue compared to the later production models.

Fantastic model Al, I have turned over hundreds of these in the past looking for one without Superfast on the base, I assume David found it in USA which is where one would expect these to have been sent initially.

A very hard model to find and I think most are in the USA, a superb addition to your collection.

Picked up this rather nice #71 Ford Wreck truck in blue from the Multi pack issue. Nice and minty

Another one that arrived was another #22 Blaze Buster with hard to find 4 spoke wheels. This one has lighter amber glass than the other example I have.
