    Lion

    Sometimes they are cheaper you just have to wait for them.
    Also if you have a look at this picture.

    Cheers Paul.

    paul...that cap on the left was a reproduction from the 90s ..also note the clips that hold it on arent the same shape...

    I thought that the loins looked a little bit different when I looked at them last night
    but I put it down to the bad lighting at the time.
    No I don't have any pictures of the early ones.
    I have been told about them but I have never seen one.
    I would be interested to see just what they look like.
    Cheers Paul.
