New addition to the collection waiting to be delivered.

Missile storm, an Italian bootleg of missile command.

This ones special as it originally came from the duke of Lancaster ship when all the machines were rescued back in may this year.

There are only 2 of these known to exist and this is one of them, originally made in 1981 this machine has been on the duke of Lancaster watching the sun rise and set for 30 years since it closed, like a time warp.

Here it is next to the guy in the middle of the screen....

It's not a yard June it's the boundary around the duke of Lancaster ship.

Hi, I didn't rescue it, the credit goes to the guy who I bought it off, he got both of the missile storm cabs and has sold 1 to me.
It was a massive bulk buy which several members put a lot of effort into.
Epic work.

it's probably over in America now, loads of the machines were shipped to other parts of the world.

I see things like that on eBay. There's a couple of kids rides on there now. smile
