If only I'd known..
« on: February 15, 2009, 07:58:09 PM »
Went to Hammerhead in newark today - loads of goodies on show.  Spent all my cash then went to the Bring & Buy section.  There were tons of Pulp Era vans and trucks on sale for just £2 a pop (including a beauty of a Pepsi Cola van).  Can't remember the name of the company on the boxes, but I should have saved some dosh and bought them.  £20 could have got me all the Pulp vehicles I'd ever need.  Damn!

Saw them from a bit of a distance but didn't get a chance to check them close up.

Lledo, Days Gone By, or Oxford Diecasts.

Mostly Lledo by the look of the packaging.

You see them on ebay quite often, and they also do some horse-drawn vehicles including delivery drays, fire engines, and trams.

That was it - Lledo.

I will have to check on ebay then.

Enjoy Hammerhead?

It was ok, but not "gripping".

Slightly disappointed by the lack of VSF.

Bought very little - just a couple of books - but played on quite a few games so didn't leave until 4pm.

Looking forward to the Triples next.
