Yup, there's a much larger following in the vintage Maglite world. It's kinda like being a Trekky where only Captain Kirk matters. My son has a "10 reasons why Picard is better than Kirk" t-shirt and I have a "10 reasons Kirk could kick Picards ***" t-shirt.
Anyway, about the only interest in modern day Maglites with collectors was the 40th anniverssary ML300 edition and most are waiting on that to go on clearance price. As a collector I have a few low volume Maglite LED products but as a user, now that I have discovered a variety of their LED lights in thrower versions I'm all over that.
Thanks for showing that short time 40 lumen solitaire. Is it Marquis rare? Probably not but it would be cool to have one still in the package. Side by side with a 37 it may not be a noticeable difference unless there was something unique about a shape, a stamping or even a way it is regulated.
