Vintage Majorette treasure
Everyone has heard those stories of people ‘who know someone’ who finds this incredible vintage die cast cars treasure, all mint in box, like they have been in a time machine travel.
Well, this time I have such a story to tell. On a Dutch trading website I noticed someone who put up MIB Majorette cars from the early ‘70-s once a few weeks. After the fourth Majorette (MIB again), I contacted him if he had more available. His reply was amazing: yes, I have 11 left, all mint in mint box… Who… An appointment was quickly made and that evening I travelled only 10 km’s from my hometown to discover this treasure…

Only to find out these models all were too young for my personal collection (I only collect till the ‘click in’ hubcaps, not the younger wheel versions) and the colors did not fit into my collection. Almost all cars are metallic!
But then, 11 mint in box vintage Majorette cars in one haul… I am sure it will be years again I can tell such a story again!

Neo Scale Models Ford Scorpio and BMW 520
Just arrived, two beautiful new model cars from Neo Scale Models. First a picture of the almost forgotten Ford Scorpio. The model has nice details and the brown sunroof is a nice feature (although not operational).
The BMW 520 (Serie E39) is a very nicely done model. The previous M5 by Neo Scale Models was not quite accurate in dimensions (when you create such highly detailed model cars, your customers expect top quality), this new 520 is very well proportioned. The wheels are great and the brake calipers are visible. Not unique, but a nice feature.
Norev Originales (Repro’s)
No, no retro… although… Reproductions made by Norev (Originales) from their first model cars released originally in the 50’s! I think these are very cool, mainly because of the accompanying cardboard box. If these were 1/64 scale, I’d buy them all, but these are scale 1/43. The price is very, very reasonable with E 13,95 (E 11,72 ex VAT) at Tiny Toy Cars. The bodies are made of plastic and except for the cabrio, they do not feature interiors or windows. They do have beautiful wheels & tires, metal axles and a tin base with NOREV and model name engraved. Even the paper ‘flaps’, wrapped around the front axle and peeking through the front windshield, were added! The cardboard box is in full style by not having a barcode or whatsoever!
Enjoy these classics with me!
