@Mallard4468 posted:Finally unboxed my Tinplate Traditions reproduction of the No. 85 Race Car set and put it together. My note on the box said that I purchased it at York in April 2009 - it only took 13 years for it to see the light of day. The paint job on the figures make them look a bit like the Joker from Batman.
After lubrication and a bit of fiddling, it runs perfectly.
13 years to open and run?? Ouch!
The pics indicate it was well worth the wait!
