Title:
HW Superfine Turbine
Description:
The Superfine Turbine, designed by Larry Wood, is one of three castings that debuted in the 1973 product line that
were never used again, the other two being the Sweet 16 and the Double Header. Since the Superfine Turbine was
produced for only one year, it is one of the hardest-to-find castings.
The design of the Superfine Turbine is one of the more disparate of the concept castings. Collectors in general love the casting or despise it, with no middle ground. In spite of the love/hate relationship, a mint piece still commands a good price.
The Superfine Turbine is characterized by the prominent jet engine in the front. At the rear
of the vehicle, there is a plastic door that pops open to expose a two-tiered shelf.
There are no known casting variations among Superfine Turbines, which is likely a consequence of the
brief span of production.
