Yep - deffo Mistrals you want Mr Costa - from memory they were standard alloy up till '92, then '93 you could get them in that hard anno grey/blue colour.

The one's on Olly's look like the precursor to the Rhyno (well they are Rhyno's but before they branded them Rhyno's) - *think* they were available in the early 90's unbranded on completes, the decal on Olly's look to be 93-94ish when they went over to the sun burst logo thingy - and I'm sure they still made them in the US until 94/5ish? Maybe later - dunno - they deffo had stopped having the 'Made in the US' logo when the first BFR's (with the black vinyl surface + eyelets) first came out.
