I just got one myself in what looks like Kingfisher Blue (same as the
one described below except for color). The source I bought mine from
also had two Cream 4/4s with steel wheels from Kyosho on display and
had run out of the red SS's. Apparently, they brought them back from
a recent trip to europe.
For those interested in acquisition, I paid $69 US. Contact Morris
