Got one of these as part of another ebay deal....not too sure
how I'll use it, perhaps behind the Airfix Coastal Defense fort....)

I love the Honest John mate, it rocks. I have been after one myself for my ROK ORBAT.

Nice score.

I wondered what all those video links were leading up to! Is this a ROCO model?

Don M said...

Yes it is Tim.

Paul, thanks It came in an odd lot
of vehicles, cheap...)

I had the Dinky HJ when I was a kid. The missile fired - but only a couple of feet! Somewhere I have the Heroics & Ros 1/300 version.

Looking at the video Tim I realized I had the wrecker and suitable deuce and a half to do
the featured reload operation ...thinking about doing that.

Tim Gow said...

Sounds completely ridiculous. Go for it!

Don M said...

good enough for me...)

Dear Don,

Range of missile - approx 15.4 miles.
Range of missile still clamped to the launcher - approx 800 yards, but much more impressive as it cartwheels down the range :O)

Regards, Chris
