One of the big mass-producers of plastic 1/25 models (AMT?) put out a
Get Smart Tiger, with all the hidden machine guns and the like. It was a
sort of bargain-basement 007 Aston-Martin.

I don't remember this. Maybe I outgrew Get Smart before the end of the series'
run. Years later, my kids were watching the cartoon version,
"Inspector Gadget". I didn't find his minivan as interesting as a Tiger.
>(man, I wonder if he noticed the SIGNIFICANT dropped in HP?).
He'd have to. Adams can't be as oblivious as the character he played!
