Took me ages to log in succesfully.
Finally after flipping the model for a 1000 times I found one in the club for a very cheap price.

Very nice find and not an easy one to get. It looks to be in great condition (displays well upsidedown)

Can someone tell me how soon into production that stengthening brace was re-cast??

[Taniwha]

I can't say how long it was until the casting was changed. Must have been a few made though - thousands? I've owned two - the one shown below and another in more playworn condition that I sold to Tim a few years back. Both were found and purchased in England - this one in the East Midlands (Donington toyfair IIRC), the other in Sussex I think.



The other model shown for comparison turned up in small town NZ...

Cheers,
Gavin
