I bought this set at the AWA Rochester meet a couple of years ago by the light of my flash light at 5:30AM on Wednesday the first day of the event. I have searched since then for the 5 Gold Super Airline GX-201A's now in the set. Thanks to a good friend I managed to aquire the last Gold tube to complete the display.
