THE CENTURY 21 AND FAIRYLITE STINGRAY FLEET

These two just go together like horse and carraige! - the JR21 Submarine Aircraft Carrier (unfinished) and the Fairylite Stingray. Immortalised by Eric Eden in TV21's Stingray comic strip, they are key stablemates in the plastic Stingray fleet. Even the shiney plastic looks similar! I still find it strange that Century 21 chose to go for the more obscure Aircraft Carrier rather than the star of the show itself. Obviously a licencing problem. Presumably Fairylite and others got their first (pictures courtesy of Ebay).
