What Happened to the Camera Strider that Camera Scientist 1337 used to ride on?

I wonder What Happened to the Camera Strider that Camera Scientist 1337 used to ride on? In 76 and 77. Scientist Cameraman 1337 rided on a Camera Strider but in 79 part 1 the Camera Strider he rided on didn't appear. will it appear again? I hope the Camera strider at the end of 79 part 1 is just some random Camera Strider and the Camera Strider that Scientist Cameraman 1337 rided on is at the Speaker base getting Upgraded.
