Default Trailer Counters

Hi all, I am looking for the product/expansion that has non-oversized trailer counters. I bought the "give me everything" kickstarter and I think I got 2 15-foot trailers out of it, but I would like other ones as well.

Does anyone know what product the trailer counters are in? I seem to remember them when I was a kid.

The AADA Vehicle Guide Volume 2 counter set had a few smaller trailers.

And if that doesn't work, there's the time-honored tradition of "make your own for personal use" :) .

I just can't remember what the card-stock used is called these days.

We converted a couple of damaged b&w Busnought counters into a 30' & 25' Foot Trailers . Had to remove front Turret from shorter one , but replaced it with a cut out Rocket Platform mounted further back .

Budget Box & Collector 40' Trailers Counters can easily be cut down & coverted to smaller Trailers . Tipex ( correcting fluid , White Paper ) , very fine tipped pen , then stick on tongue from copied illustrations .

I honestly never thought about this, it is interesting problem. I like the concept of it.

There were five images of trailers in the old (white cover) Deluxe Edition rulebook (one of these was on the black and white counter sheets for that edition). Some of these made it into the Compendium's illustrations. Some didn't.
The Midville supplement also had a couple of car trailers.
Plus, of course, the VG2 counter sheets.

Which of Course is one of the few things that Warehouse 23 isn't reprinting yet.

Sheets of counters can be bought easily online . Black & White or Colour . Perhaps even use them as template or ideas to create your own with simple art or graphics programs ?

Getting them printed of cardstock would be fairly cheap , if you know right sort of printer shop who don't charge fortunes ?

Not sure if there as many around as 15+ years ago , so perhaps online . Death Trick paid about £2 for an A4 sized sheet a few years back .
