My question now is did Do It ever make the Zonar Blade (aka Silver Buddy) Mold in a size larger than 1/2 oz. Better yet, does anyone have a 5/8 - 3/4oz Zonar (silver buddy) mold they would want to sell or trade. I have a group of friends that wants this style and only this style but they really want the 5/8, 3/4 or even 1 ounce models. I cannot find any info so do not know if they exist but I occasionally see the lures on Ebay and know that the Paul Banks version is once again commercially available.
If I know the mold exists my searching will be a challenge but right now, I am wondering if it even exists. Mold number would be nice to have.

Seems like there is a lot of confusion regarding the bait(s) I am trying to locate. Thus a couple pictures might help,
The current model vibe is on the left and the older model is on the right, The arrows shows the major differences.
The new Model has an Eye Socket added and a different blend of the head to the blade and the lead portion is a bit wider and thinner.
All I have found of the old style is the 1/4 - 1/2 combo but would really love a larger size. The differences in the 2 designs are subtle but with the right rod and line the difference in feel is astounding.
