I recently recieved a few early '70s Airfix Magazines. I was looking at one yesterday & saw an ad for Airfix's new 1/32 Saladin that was motorized. First thing I thought was the Tamiya Saladin of similar vintage. Anyway, apparently this Airfix one is more of a fairly well detailed toy. It looked pretty good in the one pic but the caption mentioned it was more for use with toy soldiers & the like but it was motorized, had a working suspension & moving turret. I immediately checked eBay & the only Airfix Saladins there are the 1/76 ones, so they may not be too common. Anyone here familiar with this one?
