Testors Bonzo

I bought a Testors Bonzo on Ebay. It is worn but capable of being cleaned up.

I need help in knowing what and where the decals were when new. Are an replacement decals available for sale/

Any help or information will be appreciated.

The only RTF plastic gas powered Bonzo was made by Aurora and had no decals, I wonder it you're thinking the Cosmic Wind version by Testors?

Here's some photos that may help, finding replacement decals might be tuff, i'd use a hair dryer and carefully remove them, clean and detail, then reinstall with rubber cement.

lol, i wish....top photo is a Aurora Bonzo i sold last year, the bottom two are just pics from the 'net....i figured out its cheaper and still fun to collect info on these cool toys then to buy them...unless a basket case comes along and i can restore and resell.

Thanks all for the helpful posts.

I have since added a chrome plated Cosmic Wind.

I have also acquired a couple of RTF twins (see posts).
