Would love ZAPK (the Blue Titan one) but the Jet X models don't look great, or is it just the pictures?
Does anyone know if there is a Diecast HP Victor available from anywhere?

No mate.. no idea on the Victor. Everyone wants a b1oody Vulcan (or so it would seem) and the other two are largely forgotten
I know for certain at least 2 of us here (you and me) would buy a Victor (I'd have to buy a Valiant too) but strangely enough.. I'd not buy a Vulcan (and won't as long as my butt points down)
EDIT.. Ben, look on ebay for this.. 260730617858
As I type, it has 19hrs to go..

Dave spotted one, but there's another (140507676669) Buy-it-Now which at least indicates the price these might go for
Edit: And camo version at 130481766010 - price going up!
