What Tripod was this...

In my previous excursion in photography in the mid 80's I had a small tripod which would convert from a shoulder stock to a table top tripod, I think it was by Hama but don't seem to be able to find them "out there" now, does anybody remember them? and are they still available?
it was made of black engineering plastic, and had 3 curved legs/feet on it.....

Sounds a bit like one of these Cullmann products

I bought one as a shoulder-pod. Build quality only average but works ok as a shoulder-pod. Very flimsy in table tripod mode, only really suitable for a compact IMO. I paid about £10, which is about what it is worth.

Yup, that's the one allright, but as you say it does seem rather overpriced....
thank you for finding it though...
