| Okay...You asked for it. Here's the complete text from the 1969 catalogue :) [I'm guessing it's another UK catalogue that could be collected at toyshops, but confirmation would be nice.] (URL) 2 BASIC SETS Because Basic Sets contain balanced (...)

| FIFA stands for (excuse my spelling) Federation International Football Association I think. If not it's something similiar.

| G'day, I'm not trying to start any cross continent flame wars...just trying to show people they're not as badly off as they seem to think.

| People frequently don't appreciate the distances involved in this country. The only chance you can argue this one with Ben over a beer, is by long distance call.
