I like Rolls Royces. I always have.
FAB1 is my fave but I like all Rolls.
Here's one I never saw on telly because I didn't watch Terrahawks for some reason.
This is the Hudson Rolls Royce.
The Bandai 1983 Hudson has been featured before on MC [Wotan has one] here's a snap from an old Ebay listing, which for me shows the toy in all its plastic glory. It isn't very big either.
I've never seen one in the flesh or ever seen one at a car boot sale so they can't be very common.
Have you got one readers?
Here's the real dope on the TV car from the Anderson's own You Tube channel.
Is it up there with FAB1?
The Hudson toy is absolute pants. A really sloppy casting and a naff pull back motor. Compared to the other bandai toys, its awful. A little larger than a standard matchbox toy, but more akin to a pound shop rack toy.

I want one more than ever now! ha ha
DeleteHudson was never in the same league as FAB1, and looks just like a normal road car. FAB1 was fabulous. I did watch Terrahawks, which was rather an odd series, with odd looking puppets, although it could be fun.
ReplyDeleteI never watched it. I think I was abroad but I appreciate the effort that went into the vehicle designs. I quite like the Hudson and would love to find it at a car boot sale!
