Regarding that silver "Captain Scarlet Mystery Jet" you found on Noppin in 2012 - if it isn't somehow related to this 1966 Midori Super Arrow, I'll turn in my Project SWORD badge!
I think they either borrowed or modified the 1966 Midori molds for the Captain Scarlet vehicle, which probably came out in ‘67 or ‘68. Midori modified or leased their early molds elsewhere, as with the Astro Car / Super Beetle / Lunar Climber. SFZ
That is a very close match. Well spotted.
ReplyDeleteEven the rivets! SFZ
ReplyDeleteLooks bang on!
