I am looking for an unbuilt Matchbox 1/72 Mirage IIICZ kit - the one with the bare metal and red colour scheme on the box art.
This is to preserve and display in my 2 Squadron mini museum.

Thanks in advance.

Alan

Very rare kit...

I believe Matchbox modified the tooling of the C to make the B.

Hi,

I know Zuma has stuffed it up for us but check here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Maquette-MATCHBOX-1-72eme-DASSAULT-MIRAGE-PK-20-1977-/281868748912?hash=item41a0afc870:g:nDkAAOSwwE5WWHt6

Maybe something!

Regards

Pierre

There is one on ebay.
I could go and picked it up, send it back to CPT with my in-laws on their return to SA.
