Oh man, what a disappointment!!!

I was really looking forward [how SAD am I?] to seeing the holy grail in the actual plastic flesh.

Turns out, it's the sas canoe aerial [black plastic]!

Have ANY of these aerials survived the last 25 years?

Hmph....

ps - andy1672 - is that a pic of you in your work clothes?

Hey All,

I just spotted that auction before heading across here, that's the SAS version of the Antenna.

There were three versions, all exactly the same but different colours.

SAS Silent Attack - Black
Recondo Silent Attack - Tan
Z-Force ATC - Green

When I was a kid my Z-Force ATC went through all three, each them lost!

I've got two black, three tan and one green but it's glued into the turret lid.

How long until we get the green repros Paul?

Cheers

Jon

i have a sneaking suspision the seller found this antenna after looking at these boards but did not realise it was supposed to be green, some newbie may fall for it and think it is the correct one so i have sent the seller this
hi i was wondering if this comes with the green antenna for the atc
or the black one pictured which is for the sas silent attack?
regards trev
i am not holding out any hope of getting it printed on the ask seller questions due to they may think they will lose money on this
then again i am a pesimist lol :wheels:

My custom PAC aerials aren't done yet, which is a shame. They should have been finished by now but there's a delay because the guy's wife is due 'to drop' any day.

So, it's currently not exactly top priority right now. In a couple of months it will be finished though.

The cast is sorted - see pic below, its just a matter or getting the correct shade of green.

All of you that emailed me should be able to have the aerials you wanted . As I stated before I have to buy a minimum of 20 to make it cost effective, and between you, you wanted about 19 or so. Still no idea on price sorry.

So, basically, there's a delay for the production of a 'young-un', but once he's out & about they should finally get finished.

Wouldn't the easiest thing be to melt down a broken Z Force toy?

I've just emailed him to see if the 'melted down' parts idea would work.

They'd be 'semi-vintage' then!
