BP petrol station

Hi,

at the moment a powerseller is offering this rare BP station and I'm wondering about the differences from my BP station and his station :

Is this a variation or is this more a fake ?

My station with green on the top, green band at the logo with a blue band placed at above and white at the top ceiling. That are differences I see immediately

and that is the other version. (Same version like in the DSK).
Seems to be only an exchange Schleich Logo with BP Logo

Image

(I will not the link here because I dislike people scanning here through the forum to get informations about cheap stuff without writing one single comment at whole forum :angry: )


What I cannot understand is the yellow color in the DSK version. That is the normal station color and the logo of BP is green. So IMO the version with much more green makes more sense ??
Or is this a variant.... no provided in Australia maybe in GB or so ??? But This yellow version is nearly the same like the original playset.

I asked the seller... Maybe he has an explanation

Response from seller ...He knows there are existing two different versions from this set. He bought this set directly from Schleich. It was part of a job lot so he can be sure that version is no fake......

So I think I need the other version too :)

Interesting question Cheesy.

I am still after my first BP petrol pump so I can't offer you much advice but it seems from the others that there are 2 variations..... :banghead:

I didn't need to know that :( :) :)

I have enough trouble trying to find one of these :?

Good luck with it Cheesy as it would be nice to have both variations of this BP playset

Take a look at this- one of my best smurfy friends sent me this pic....

I love stuff like this-I presume it wasn't mass produced like the National smurf???

Wouldn't it be great to own something like this??

Hope you enjoy Cheesy :)

The seller told me the other version was coming only in a blister packaging so not very interesting....

This is another rarity.
There are many items never seen before that are popping out in the last days.
Are there some kind of hidden deposits somewhere?
