Can't wait to see what happens now.

Ahh the Holy Grail...nearly as rare as an unbroken Shaft!

Cheers Chopper, I'm now laying back smoking a cigarette and I don't even smoke!

dear whoever you are.

i know you know i know you've got one, the above picture maybe yours i don't know, i also know as you read this you'll be thinking to yourself how much will Eddie pay for my picture box boat patrol, that is a question that will sit deep in your soul until you give in and ask me directly..

there is no hurry i have a few deals to do first over the course of the next few months so take your time i can wait,

Well I never.. I'd not realized the boat patrol's Detonator should have yellow stickers on it, you learn something new everyday.

Also, is it just an error on the box art or, did the boxed issue come contain an MP-5 instead of the usual M-60?

Mmmm motorboat... I mean Boat Patrol.

Bugger me, you are right, Ed. I got a detonator in a heap of bits not too long ago and it has the stickers on it. I thought it looked a bit crappy. Now I know why.

That is interesting. Fiddly to do, but interesting.

It also makes you think, Chopper, that the person from whom you bought that detonator may well have had one of the above 'rocking horse poo' boxes.
Its amazing quite how much is left to be uncovered.

I have a new variant discovery that I will unveil to the world, shocking it to the core, as soon as I can get some good photographs
Oh, and I have bought up all the figures so none of you sods can have them. Also, Eddie Murphy and I can sell them at massively inflated prices, thereby reducing the Duke brothers to poverty, all for a $1 bet. Or something.

I think I need another coffee...

I think whoever was responsible for the box photo got it wrong, I just took a look @ the instruction sheet, those yellow stickers should be positioned on either side of the outboard motor. (Bloody hell... I'll fetch my Anorak as I leave the premises.)

That's perfectly possible, they probably copied the boxes photo.
