As
Mattel's most legendary and expensive
casting to collectors, quite a variety of reproductions have been created.
Even Mattel eventually released their own reproductions. The following pages
cover some information about them hopefully serving as a guide to the types of items that
exist and
will allow the collector to either identify what they have or assist with making a
potential purchase choice.
Of the many versions, they run the gambit
from very well made to quite poor produced As with any item,
higher quality ones cost more than poor quality reproductions..
The lesser quality items are often misrepresented as one of the better
items..
RLBB Reproductions
can be found from the
following:
One of the most commonly misrepresented
items is the Brightvision casting. Several of the later versions
copied the Brightvision reproductions then purposefully misrepresent and
attempt to sell them as Brightvision castings.
A quick
overview follows.
