I'll get some photos up of them soon. I have yet to dig them out of
storage. The odd thing is that the fuselage on all three is *green*,
of all things, with the landing gear orange, and on at least one of
the cockpit canopies of the three, it is blue/clear plastic, instead
of clear, like the others. When I find them, I'll take pix of the 3
together, a close-up of one, and one of Straker's car.
Fortunately, I resisted the very strong urge over the years to paint
them to the proper colours, as I did once for a Space:1999 Eagle
(well, it looked better that way), so, despite them all being very
much played with, they are still in remarkable condition (and I never
once lost any of those nose-missles that shoot, and go "bang" with a
paper/gunpowder cap, like they made when I was young...*smile*) :-)
