Hallo Gents

I picked these two up this evening at the local Hobby club:-

The outer front surface on the model on the left is smooth,

the other you can feel the lines under the plastic.

I was quite chuffed with obtaining these,

when I showed them to my wife she said " Oh! those things, I had lots of them

from school as a child in the time of Ceausescu

Oh! and where are they now dear? was the my response
