Sure looks like 42-3423 or 42-3473 (F with a chin turret added?) - what do you have for those? Note there's no H code. The eBay seller isn't any help .

From the Hobbs yearbook, a shot of Hobbs 44 on the deck - same number style as the ones from e-bay.

Also, on the Hobbs update page I been posting, is another shot of Hobbs 44 (just the tail) and again, same style as these e-bay items. I believe this is Hot Stuff.

I wonder if Lucky 13 (42-3455) had a chin turret - Ray, over to you.

I am thinking it is more 42-314?? with the third digit (the 1) buried because of the angle.

This is 42-31471 and it has the same high grey belly and nose configuration as Hobbs 77 -- could Hobbs 44 be 42-31421 ??
