    Ex Military Hoodsticks

    I'm told SII and SIII hoodsticks are different.
    What are the differences? Photo's would be helpful.

    I have a set of hoodsticks and would like to know what is the correct type of Landrover to buy to put under them.

    One has a couple of extra bends, IIRC.

    Apparently you really have to look to notice it though.

    Are you sure, Digger? I might need a tricorder to determine the age of the metal.
    Where's a Starfleet science officer when you need one?

    I don't have anything to compare them to. Where are the extra bends?
    Again, photo's would be helpful.

    If I had a set, I could give you some photos.

    I can't remember if the extra bend is in the upright, or in the top.

    I think the S3 sticks were simplified, with fewer bends. Ultimately the same shape, just the S2 sticks were a slightly gentler profile.

    I'm reasonably sure the S2/S3 are the same shape & dimensions, the S1 were different altogether, cheers Dennis
    ps of course the 109 set will have more items, ie 1 extra hoop and 2 bars,.

    Perhaps you could sent them down here for me to try and see if they fit.
    We'll start with that big sandy coloured one.
