When I wanted to make an adjustment to the 'Armord Truck' MB69-C it suddenly turned out to no longer exist. Of course this one has also disappeared in my own collection.

I assume that this is a 'mistake', and that it will be available again soon? If not, I'll recreate it.

Hopefully this doesn't happen too frequently...that would be a shame.

Best regards,

jm

Ah, the name has been changed. Originally it did say 'Armored Truck' as mentioned on the bottom plate. So I couldn't find it again ... THANKS !!

Jean Marie,

In the history I see that I am the one who, already in 2010, changed the title of the existing model incorrectly, I have just corrected this. Apologies for this 'old mistake'. That made it a bit more difficult to find. Your recent duplication of this model has since been moved.

I started from the First Image with the 'Security Truck' on the box. The title on the model base plate is preferred. Because not everyone has a box with his / her model.

Thanks for the two links above.

mvg Geesje

Well, that's what you get when you use and handle this incorrect and incomplete system.

and Again here the administrator is at fault again.

They are two different models;

both originally numbered by Matchbox as 69th,

with bottom plate mention in both editions; Armored Car

The first and original UK-only model, 69e-1

in December 1977, was not yet a Superfast Series model

Model released both with and without 'Wells Fargo' Decals

With print Box; 69Security Truck

The second model, 69e-2, released in 1978, a Superfast Series model

with the 'Armored Car' mention + on the bottom plate!! Superfast Wheels

and on box entry 69 Security truck

Also released in green; Dresdner Bank, but with the same 69e-1 number

but German edition box

The (Superfast) model was released in four different boxes

Dim. approx. 65 x 30 x 32mm - Weight approx. 55gr.

And that's how it should be / can be, provided a correct and complete system is used.

and not in the current incomplete system used by Catawiki

I would have wanted to enter these models like this, with this information,

but are unfortunately removed by administrator.

Well.....

In any case, it is NOT an MB69-C

for the sake of completeness and inspectors under you;

the MB69-C is the Superfast Series Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow,

and of course this model is again released in various series, colors
