Got a green mint one I scored in a tackle box recently, if anyone's interested, it'll be at the Expo as a trader.

Yes the originals were timber. Kev did not like making them because they were too small and fiddly  and shot out of his hands and under the fridge. Maybe he should of just faced away from the fridgeLOL
 
Yes Laurie, these are current era not originals. Not sure when Kev made these but I don't think it was that long ago.
