Hi Dutchman,

Despite the bad photos, it's still clear that's a pretty nasty fake. The reverse setup (which is nothing like any original badge) is similar to these two old fakes, possibly all from the same series.

Best regards,

Agreed, horrible fake.

Thanks for the warning Norm but that Aux. Cruiser fake caused more damage than just bleeding eyes.

Anyway, saved for posterity.
