For my post, it's time to play

"Spot the Imposter"!








One was made by me, using only a photo of the "alleged" real one. Of course now I _do_ have a real one. So which one is it? [;)]

Tony,
My guess is the one on right in 1st & 2nd pictures & one on left in 3rd picture, I go with Garths idea with the decals, but it is still a pretty good job,................... Abe

Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

I probably should have just posted the middle picture....

The one with the dome platform is the one I made. Recall even back then I said Tyco would have screwed up the paint somehow, which of course they did. [Oops!]

Proof that you can make things too nice sometimes, LOL. [:P]

Thanks to all who played!
