Wotan here: inspired by Mike Burrows' fabulous artwork on the Rocket Transporter, I put pencil to paper myself over lunch to try and imagine how the Crash Tender from the Spacex line might look. There's not much to go on from the only image available*, on the card backs, so its mostly extrapolation. I reckon this one would have had the same larger wheels as the Molab, so it would be a bigger model - maybe about 14 cm long and hopefully a nice pleasant red and not that horrible spacex orange! I think the 'hose reel' at the back would be chromed and the ladder/spray jet would be moveable. Thats my two pennyworth anyway! Lets see how close I was when one turns up on ebay next week!

*Woodsy here - there is another pic, probably the first, from TV21, in the Origin of the Crash Tender by Paul Vreede previously posted on the blog.6
I 'tender' my resignation - you guys are just too damn good!
