Here is another book Kev about the Redline cars

I was reading the Reader Reviews on that Strauss book and it was Interesting!

some like it some dont,what do you think Kev?
Not knowing anything about it myself i found it interesting one guy mentions a toy called a Sky Show Deoras what is that? and also another collectable one is a rear Surfboard beach bomb...got one of those?
I will do a search on the web when i get chance

Happy collecting Kev

The Sky Show Deora was only available in the SkyShow set. Basically it's a track set with little gliders on a ramp on the back of the Deora (also available as Custom Fleetside set) These gliders were launched when the Deora went through a special piece of track. BeachBombs were basically VW camper vans. The real rare ones were preproduction worth up to $15000 a piece
