SAS Panther with Black or Yellow Rollbars?

Post by rcm1234567 »

Does any one know if the SAS Panther with Yellow Rollbars came in the window box or was it only available in the closed box?
There is a picture of a window boxed one in the archieve, but it has its stickers applied & seems to have a loose figure, I think it may have been re-boxed.
Did the black rollbars version only come in the window box or did it come in both packaging?
Any info would help.
Thanks Robert

Hello,

I've got a window box with the yellow roll bar version, unassembled and decals unapplied etc.

Cheers

Jon

I`ve got a black bar version boxed, it has the stickers applied, but the guy I bought it from, was one whom always put the toys back in the box after playing.
Made a 4hr round trip to Birmingham to pick that up!, ended up a nice day out at the steam fair though :)

The one I had as a child came in a windowed box and had the yellow roll bars.

Sure thing Baron, I've been meaning to post pictures of my collection for a while now but I've always been too busy wheeling and dealing!

The question is which is the rarest? I always thought that it was the yellow version then I heard it was the Black, does anyone know for sure?

From my recollection the black roll bar version is the rarest. The black version was released first and then during the wave, Palitoy moved to the yellow roll bar during the run of the window packaging. It stayed with the yellow roll bar after that, until the end of production.
