I had one; albeit it had been overpainted in gloopy white gloss paint - and then I had a crack at it with my infernal Tamiya chrome paint pen. Then the baseplate fell off it. I don't remember what happened to it, in the end. Probably for the best; it'd keep me up at night otherwise...

Entertainer on the moor has loads of hot wheels, the one in Meadowhall has the Matchbox as well.

Datsuncog Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Oh no. They were right. It's total carnage. There's no way Terry's gonna have a hoop big enough for this in the store...

Came up when I was searching Matchbox Super Chargers - base is 1987 Macau Don't remember ever seeing anything like that in real life, but the Matchbox Fandom wiki page does have them listed under the Super Chargers range as the Monster Tractors, with adjacent numbering to the Mud Racers: Super Chargers (Super Trucks) Series | Matchbox Cars Wiki | Fandom Possibly US-only releases? I don't think that sort of competition tractor pulling is so much of a thing in the UK (or wasn't in the late 80's anyway). bunglebus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't, though they did have another three of these same Auto Shop sets on the shelf, still priced at £6.99. Just sayin'. 😉 Split_Pin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bible according to wiki suggests there's a 2023 release so it's probably easiest to find one of those. It doesn't have a number yet so may be a while. Maybe Poundland/Poundstretcher etc will throw up one of the previous releases Christine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Wrong shop then ! I took a chance on this crushed box Revell Mini Cooper last week being complete . All 3 bags were sealed , taped up , distructions were present .. it was £3 .. A bit choked though, most stuff is 20p usually . Anyway i made it and it was all complete . Even had 2 new humbrol tins and a double ended brush . I gently sprayed it with my Fiesta touch up cellulose aerosol and polished it up with Silvo. Not made a kit for hundreds of years .

bunglebus Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I didn't buy that Airfix MK1 kit, but the 50p bins turned up a few bits Red Rider may not be the rarest of the bunch, but they don't often turn up with the engine intact Countach has the pleasingly sproingy 80s suspension Is this the last use of these wheels? Copyrighted 1977 and made in Thailand later than that I would suspect Someone has tweaked the torsion bars on this Corgi tin snail for a nose-down stance Matchbox buggy This High Speed Merc SL has been in the basket for months. Took pity on it I don't really "do" Bburago but I do like a Ritmo/Strada. Missing a wheel but the peg to retain it is intact. Sure I had a Saab donor somewhere... Ebay turned up this Yatming BMW 2800 Smyths netted me this Countach - apparently these fly off the shelf, may give this to my mate as a birthday present Found the dark blue (not black) Art Cars van in BuMs MiniMinorMk3, FakeConcern, AndyW201 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibbler Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Some plastic stuff. VW T3 from Swedish maker Vikingplast and a Stahlberg Volvo. The Volvo is quite large, around 1/20 is my guess.
