  1. I remember seeing that at the time and so wanted it! As I was already getting Quest from Marschall Cavendish, it was a stretch too far. I do have a Quest special on the 1990 World Cup though. Shall have to dig that out :)

  2. Remind us all what Quest was again? Sounds familiar... :)

  3. Quest was a science part-work from Marshall Cavendish which I collected (and completed, IIRC), but sadly threw away about 15 years ago.

    Chris O: Did you notice that one of the "Great Goals" was actually Gordon Banks's save v Pele in 1970?

  5. Thanks for the confirmation about Quest, Anonymous and Rich J! I have vague recollections of the TV advert for it but never actually collected that partwork. Come to think of it, World Cup '90 is the only partwork I've ever seen through from start to finish!

    Brilliant observation, Anonymous. That's a great spot! I shall have to look into that and find out why Banks got himself a special inclusion in that section!
