after hours of gently trying to remove the paint of these suspect mollers i was very happy to discover that they were. The paint came of a few very easy and the lure itself i found was in near mint condition the chin minnows however didnt hold up as well they must have had previously been damaged as the paint was stuck to these in the damaged areas like superglue resulting in widespread damage. All in all im stoked there is some nice colours amoungst them and to add this many of Eric's work to my collection in my first hit was pure arse haha such a joy to see the beautiful lures bought back to life. Cheers Sonny. Now to find out what these are

Wow they were in great shape. Outstanding win that.
Maybe we should paint all our new lures to preserve the original paints haha.
