New to Brick Picker, looking for help identifying a specific model

[Benjaminduncan]

Hi guys, i'm new to Brick Picker and am hoping someone can help me with a specific model i'm looking for...

I believe it was called Super Helicopter Transporter or something like that, it was an early nineties model which retailed for about £80ish at the time I think. It consisted of a large American style truck cab, a trailer and of course a helicopter, all in black/red. Of all my Lego from my childhood this was my most precious but for some idiot reason I sold it when I was at Uni about 10 years ago. I would love to get my hands on another one, hopefully the price isn't too mental now!

Any help identifying the model number is greatly appreciated
