Universal Highlight (82 - 92) Another lunchtime bargain,
Popped into my favourite hobby store, found these 2 beauties.
Just picked up a good second hand spitfire at the weekend at a car boot, to find this in the box is just perfect.
The milka van is quite a rare beast, was watching a red courier van on eBay and missed out on it so definitely grabbed this when I spotted it.
Paid the princely sum of £12.50, for the pair.

Oddball O’ Obscurity Marked Stake Truck but its not. Help identifying please
I got this in a lot of other lesneys and miscellaneous other cars yesterday its marked stake truck as you can see, but clearly its not. I've been trying to find any info, but nothing. All results show the actual stake truck (by coincidence I saw it was posted here earlier today). I just wanted to see if anybody here could give me some insight on this. I was going to comment on that persons post but I didn't want to hijack their post or anything. I appreciate any help, thanks!

Lesney Legend Superfast (70 - 82) Seafire
There are several variations of this boat like these two with different color drivers. I know there’s a red boat also and possibly there may be others. Either way they’re cool pieces for the lesney line up.

Lesney Legend Regular (53 - 69) Scammel Mounteer Snow plow
I had been looking for a clean example of this one for a good while. It’s very hard to find one with the sticker on the plow blade intact. I’m glad I was able to snag this one at a decent price.

Collection A few more of my world class cars
I’m pretty sure I opened one of my Diablo‘s, and left these other two on their card. Normally, I open the world class cars, but I think I left that Countach on its card.

Lesney Legend Regular (53 - 69) Creating displays
Does anyone use people in their displays and if so, what do you use or where do you get them? I recently found some at some swap meet/antique stores but I’m hoping for other options too.

Lesney Legend Superfast (70 - 82) Citroen
Clipped from the web:
The Citroën SM is a radical grand tourer produced from 1970 to 1975, marrying French aerodynamic design with Maserati V6 power. Known as a "Concorde for the road," it boasted advanced hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension, swiveling cornering headlights, and self-centering power steering.
Citroën's short-lived ownership of Maserati resulted in just 12,920 SMs ever being built. Today, they are prized collectibles combining classic comfort with exotic mechanicals. Values frequently range between $40,000 and $60,000 depending on condition and originality.

Question / Discussion Are all of these world class cars?
I’ve had these for 10 or 15 years. The AMG and that 308 are re-purchases of two of my favorite cars as a kid my stuff

Lesney Legend Regular (53 - 69) Painted base variation question.
I realize this is a question but it also has to do with a particular car so I wasn’t sure where to post it.
Was the painted base variation always so difficult to find? I’ve been trying to find a few variations for my collection.

Lesney Legend Regular (53 - 69) 5 finds today
Nothing earth shattering but some I didn’t have or better than ones I did have. The Hovercraft breaks my rule of age but I had one as a kid and was sentimental.
The Ford GT was interesting due to no stripes. They may have worn off or been painted over but it’s fine.
The Pointer I already had but it was stripped of paint before I got it and this one is pretty nice.
Best of all, the Pointer was $10 the others were $5 or $3 each.

Question / Discussion It's this Vintage?
Not sure if this is considered Vintage or not, but either way such a cool setup, respectfully IMO.
