Hi all,
Thanks for the nice comments I felt a bit foolish out in the front garden taking photo's of my toys, the neighbours must think I'm nuts!

It was made by a company called Multi Toys Corp, nope I've never heard of 'em ether for more details seehttp://www.gregdonner.org/blue_thunder/bt_misc.html
It took me years to find this toy, it was last years x'mas pressie to myself,I finally found it on e-bay & was the 1st bidder..it started for something like .99p, & I'm like thinking "wow I might actually win it for that" but within the last 30 sec's it jumped up to £50..I'd won it by a single penny
I've got the box it's a bit tatty but nice to have..still looking for the Roy Scheider figure to pilot it..

There's new super detailed 1:32nd scale diecast model on sale,but it's out of my price range sadly..

Cool! I like it! Never knew they'd done that one. That modern one is ace. Pricey, but ace!

Chopper approves, but would like top point out that NZ and Australia are on the top

Really cool photography using various scales to fake perspective.

the neighbours must think I'm nuts!

I expect mine to think I am a little 'off normal' as well from time to time. But who cares? Rather abnormal & happy than normal & grumpy!
