I agree. These sets must've been slapped together in a garage somewhere. They just wanted to jump on the television bandwagon before the other manufacturers. Because of their primitive construction and design, they're very interesting looking, as well as rare. So that makes 3 existing sets now. The one on eBay is the gem though, especially that it's complete and with that great lightening bolt "V" grill that will be super easy to restore. With a top-notch refinish with the right toning, the set will be a knockout in any collection. I must say, that blonde one would be a contender if it had it's chassis'.
