* Information received from Nick Galousis: 'As a child I owned some of these plastic models, all of them were bought in the early seventies, so there are much older than your database reports. I believe they must be from around 1970-1973. Also I believe the racing-car models are not 1/87 scale. At least the Porsche I have in front of me right now is 1/69 since it is 5.8 cm long. From what I recollect, the Aston Martin and the Mercedes racing cars were of similar length.'
