Another great toy show today. I was very happy to pick up the green hillman. One or my wants for a long time. Prices were great too. These look like they were made yesterday. Each one replaced a model in my display case. LIght and dark green long distance coaches. The early tow trucks with metal and plastic wheels. The DUKW has black plastic wheels.

Wow!!!!!

Wow!!!!!

Yes indeedy!!!!!!!
Did Lesney really apply so much silver to the orange Bedford Compressor truck and is the wonderful green Minx from the early days when Lesney hand applied silver trim because it doesnt look mask sprayed?

Well he did say they "look like they were made yesterday". Maybe it's just the fine camera work that makes them look better than from the factory. They are beautiful!

Those look great, Tom. I'd be happy with the old models that you replaced!
