    Unfortunately an example of the 'Blob' fake.

    These have been knocking around at least 30 years longer than the real thing was! It's basically a copy of the B.H.Mayer 4.1.1. badge and is thought to have originated here in the U.K. back in the 70's and is still being produced. The material used is generally rather good, but the stumbling block is the football shaped MG coaxial port and the dumbell shaped track links. But it still catches out the unwary all the time.

    Regards, Ned.
