I replaced the decals on a Topping Mercury Atlas model and cleaned it up, it's pretty nice now. It's all silver, I don't know if this is an early version as I've seen one with a black Mercury. The capsule has two tiny little dots one either side, I don't know what that's meant to be. I'll post pics later. I want to sell this as soon as possible, I just don't have the room for it. The first good offer gets it before I list it on eBay. Thanks! |

I've had a few people interested so to be fair I'll list this on eBay as a short auction $500 start price and a $1200 buy it now.Does anyone know why some had black capsules versus the silver? |

Just a thought, but you might want to add to the description that you did restoration work on the model. I for one would be ticked off to receive a model I thought was original when I paid for it but then found out there was work done so it is not all original, for what it's worth. |
