I just got a six pack of these in the blue livery. If they were ever used I certainly couldn't tell. There does seem to be lots of stuff out there that people bought and then they didn't do anything with it -- cars and engines. I've actually purchased some early model PS2 engines with 5 minutes on the chronometer. If I buy it I run it, but I store it in a way that keeps cars/engines clean and pretty much dust free.
