I was looking through the catalogs at Brickshelf and found a 1986 catalouge with Model Team sets in it (5510, 5540, and 5580). I though MT came out in '89. What's the deal? Was it a limited realese? (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.modelteam)

(...) I received one for Christmas. Haven't built it yet but did look close enough to confirm that yes, the wheels are the same as the 5571's.
