Shite in Miniature II

[Split_Pin]

I've been after one of those Cougars for a while.

[RoadworkUK]

The same company also sells a version of the first Ford Ranger that came to the UK

 

 

 

There's a bit of a gap around the leading edge of the bonnet, but it's otherwise pretty much beyond criticism.

[Junkman]

I got a 2CV model with Dollywobbler painted on it!

 

 

 

[Junkman]

I also expanded my 1/24 Hachette collection.

 

 

 

[Felly Magic]

Those Hachettes look mighty fine there JM, and LOL at the 2CV with our very own WollyDobbler on. Groovy

[MorrisItalSLX]

Ex-display models have been purchased today

 

 

Some shite

 

 

Some not-so-shite

 

 

Unsure of maker as they were un-boxed and no markings on the bases

[Split_Pin]

Most are Oxford Diecast I think. I have the 1100 in white, very nice it is too.

[quicksilver]

They're all 1/76 Oxford Diecast, I have all of those except the Moggie Trav. The yellow Princess is a model of the one owned by our very own 'rovamota' that I photographed at Gaydon on Sunday.

SD1 I picked up from Mr Lobster At Gaydon

Now that is nice!

[Junkman]

I think I can stop collecting now, since this is impossible to top.

Excellent RAV4!

 

A rather obvious decision here to reissue the 1:24 Escort Mk2:

Aoshima have recently brought out a Brian James car trailer and of course the Transit Mk2.5 is now readily available, so there's a fairly predictable combination there.

[DVee8]

I picked this up yesterday from Brunswick yard Penrith.

 

 

 

[Split_Pin]

That is another lovely 1970s and 80s Corgi casting.

I can't remember if my ESCI/Ertl ones are 1/24 or 1/25, is this a reissue of them or another unrelated line?

[Pillock]

Can you get 1:24 balaclavas and HiAb?

[eddyramrod]

The HiAb shouldn't be too difficult, you need what used to be called the Truck Accessories Pack by Italeri (I think).  In fact there may have been two different packs.  You used to be able to buy figures too, I remember a truck drivers set (2 men, 1 woman) and a set called Campus Friends (at least 2 each male/female, plus a Vespa).  Not sure if any of these are still available though.

[Bren]

The more realistic option is when the essy is in convoy with the italeri 1:24 transit on false plates.

[puntopaul]

PIcked up this Majorette Renault Recovery truck for a bargain £1!!  at a local car show a couple of weekends ago.

 

Bit big scale wise ( 1/45 ) compared to the usual Majorette stuff, but goes well with my Majorette Fiat Punto which is 1/43.

 

[Split_Pin]

Photobucket says no on that one I'm afraid but I know the model you mean. Unless there's a partwork one somewhere then that's the only Master MK1 model I know of.

I've attached it properly this time, so lesson learn't! But same here, I've not seen another Mk1 Master by another brand. 

 

[Split_Pin]

Nice little Punto too

Nice little Punto too

Bet the electric power steerings failed on this one too!

[plasticvandan]

Would anyone be interested in making me an offer for my colelction of tasty Commers?

The only one I can think of is the not inexpensive resin kit by Mini Vehicles.

There is one on eBay atm:

For those looking for a Master beavertail, don't mind newfangledness, but do mind expensiveness,

this might be interesting:

[sierraman]

I have the Renault Master in the pick up variety. Really nice model, remember getting mine on a trip to France sometime in the early 1990's

[RoadworkUK]

Was it the Corgi Renault Trafic or the Matchbox Transit Mk3 that had a full compliment of seats despite non-glazed panel van sides? I own both, but they're twenty miles down the road.

Here's mine
