Ah, but whose eyes would not light up with delight, on 
viewing such a beautiful chocolate toy as the BC-1306?
Top that!
Or the "set-ness" and wonderful technical look of the
BC-654? Or the no-nonsense serious  robustness of the 
SCR-506 ( BC-652/ 653)?  The exquisite layout and 
beautifully formed cover and dials of the BC-1000 ?
