Ok, just to confirm it was Istanbul, not Constantinople? :D

I didn't want to click on this thread, seeing that model number on the title. That was a great find and a steal @Dazibao. Congrats :). But I am sad at the same time—it's like getting a whiff of something good yet it's something that I'll never be able grasp (ToT)

This was a very lucky find indeed.

I didn't even search for a 959 - I saw some pics online and here we are.

Me and my brother we would look at Tower Hobbies catalogs my dad brought home and dream about these...

Life was so much better before Internet and smartphones!

Without which you would not have found this though?

You are right Internet did help with my purchases over the years.

Just reminiscing over childhood memories :) Don’t get to see family too often these days.
