SCALEXTRIC FAB 1 IS - WELL, ABSOLUTELY FAB!

It's been many years since I owned a Scalextric set - decades in fact, way back in the '60s - and I have no plans to buy one any time soon, if ever. However, when I saw this new FAB 1 car from Thunderbirds, I simply had to have it. I'm content for it to stay in its display case and just enjoy looking at it from time-to-time. It's definitely the best model representation of Lady Penelope's Rolls Royce I've ever seen, and the detail on her ladyship and Parker is amazing.

It's also quite a bit bigger than the Dinky and Corgi versions, and if there's a finer one to be had than this one, I'd be surprised. Scalextric also do a TV Batmobile and an Aston Martin D.B.5 (as well as other character cars), but I'm probably over-subscribed in those departments so I'll likely give them a miss. (Never say never though.) So whaddya think, Crivvies? Is the Scalextric FAB 1 the bees-knees or what? All I can say is "Scalextric - well done!"
