Rodeo Sfondafienile - The Italian StuntBuster set
For background information on the Italian stunt sets see the Rodeo Saltoacrobatico page.
As with the Rodeo Saltoacrobatico set, Harbert (under licence from Knickerbocker) produced the equivalent of a StuntBuster set. This set was called Rodeo Sfondafienile, which loosely translates as Rodeo Barn Crash. As with the Rodeo Saltoacrobatico set, there is little change from the Dukes of Hazzard sets other than the stickers. In the case of this set, the artwork even mixes both the General Lee and the new style car together. The new style car is shown bursting though the barn, but the demonstration pictures of the two speed car in action simply reuse the artwork from the Knickerbocker boxes.
It is unclear whether a Barnbusters equivalent of these sets was produced. If you have any more information on any of these sets please get in touch.
There are a few more images of the Rodeo Saltoacrobatico set available on the web so I have rounded them up in the gallery below.
