Blood for the Baron!

Using this information, we can build up an outline of relative chronology for the variants.

More to follow soon.
Stirling work, Herr Quickfire, you are really going for it.

Danke schön Hopps, let's see if a more detailed list and categories will pass any manner of taxonomological muster in the first instance. Foundations laid, but distracted by "events" so unsure when the finished product will be out.

Much obliged, and yeah, I'd love to tackle this, but it is a huge undertaking.
The big question is, what evidence remains for prototypes, etc, and where is that information.
Mr Tree seems to have access to Palitoy's archive, and he seems to play his cards very close to his chest.
Actually, I've never understood why - if it was me, I'd be screaming from the rooftops! I suppose it's connected to his book about Palitoy's history that is somewhere in the pipeline.

I'm going to do some studying... I feel an XL spreadsheet coming on! (*scurries over to the archive section)

I have to disagree on this, around 50% of the prototype pictures on the Toy archive here have been through what I have shared, some are just not as exciting as others and don't get talked about (never seen any talk on any of the unpainted first shots).

There is no one 'archive', there is about 10 years worth of research on Palitoy to find the dots and then connect some of them. It is scattered. Those things I have been in a position to share I have, there are those who have asked me not to share online, respecting their wishes I have not posted online and there are those that I have had to go through great lengths, hoops and personal financial cost myself.

In some cases, some of this has been presented at Roll Out Roll Call (concepts, TV adverts etc), which has allowed folk to see some of it. I've never been a closed book about any of it and always been happy to talk to people in person, plus given the great lengths taken to put on a show for Action Force for over 5 years now it's never been easier

Just my thoughts.

Apologies if offence caused... certainly none meant!
I just know that you have done a massive amount of research into this area, so have always wondered what else is out there waiting to be discovered. And any time you post something on the subject, it's usually really impressive and earth-shattering.
I imagine you lying, Smaug like, on a pile of prototypes and variants!

Your work is greatly appreciated, honest... just hurry up and find more goodies!

How is this project going, then.
What news re: prototypes, etc.

Anything interesting happening?

Extensive activity has disrupted progress - everyone deployed east of the Dniepr or in just about every country of Middle East & North Africa.

Let's see what can be done in May.

Take it easy Quickie!
