If so I'm insanely jealous! Wanted one of them for ages, along with a CB McHaul!

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 see
http://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..

Really cool photography using various scales to fake perspective.

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!
