I have four different boxes for the 69a:





Still a couple to get though - I think the type C box is quite elusive for this one.

Thank you George for adding fresh posts so regularly.

Does anyone have a photo of an orange 69b with a yellow shovel to add to the thread? Anyone?

Very nice numi could you post a photo of the base of this model please, so as the collectors know which is the genuine base and which is the incorrect base for this model.

Thank you Numi for posting the photos of the two tone Hatra. Thank you George for asking for the base photo.

Great Hatra Numi!
Does anyone have a yellow Hatra with red Hubs and could post a picture?

I will as soon as I have some time away from work and can figure out how to do it. Bit of a computer novice here.
