bought a Matchbox F-150 today. Do someone at matchbox has access to internet or have a clue about Ford trucks ? its not the first time they mess them up ( i have that one too, with the corrected F350 )
What was the problem with those ? I don't see a difference between the two photos.

packaging says F-150 while the truck is a F-350
i don't think it was someone who did it , or they did it for each one they had in store
wondering if they might be worth a little something.. in 300 years...

I've got many model and old toy cars, maybe I'll post some of them in the future.
But first of all, I've got a question. I bought some weeks ago a very nice red 1990 MB 300 GE (W463) by AutoArt.
But it has some logo at the rear and I don't know what it means. Does anybody recognize this logo??

I've found a larger photo, but no idea about that logo.

2020 might have been an horrible year for almost every one ( except masks & hand sanitizer companies , they must be loving it.. ) but at least it brought something good... some Majorette cars in a local pharmacy .. i bought 10 !

i don't know how recent they might be but in the pack there is an Audi R8 Spyder ( and a coupe , current model , at least to me...
) , Porsche 918 , McLaren 675LT recent-looking Toyota Hilux Revo ( mine is drk grey with a bed cap ) & HiAce , a Corolla that looks mid 2010's
the others , that i don't know really well ( ok, in those i named above there is a few i don't know much either.. ) are Opel Adam , Renault Twingo ( looks way bigger than the original so i assume its a recent one ) and a VW Multivan ( said to be T6 )
i guess they might be old stock in Europe but when you didn't saw any in years...

The Hilux and Hiace are from last year, the others are a bit older. Anyway, there is a date de fabrication printed on the chassis of each car, so you can see how recent they are. It begins with "BK".

assuming it goes by day/month/year they would be built between february and june 2019

Which is as recent as the ones I see in Belgium and France, in these COVID times...

some hope for Hot Wheels.. after seeing way too many weird designs, i got a pair of 1996 Chevy Impala SS , a pair of 1991 GMC Syclone and a 2020 RAM 1500 Rebel, among others...
What makes it even more strange is that i bought them at my local Dollar Store, which has by far a greater choice than Walmart or Toys R Us ...

Coincidence, I bought them too this Friday ! I thought I wouldn't be able to find much in term of 3-inch toy cars this year, for obvious reasons, but I managed to find most of 2020's interesting Hot Wheels, a few Matchbox and some Majorette cars (thanks to unexpected local sales outlets, a few trips across the french border and one to Germany).

well.. that's a coincidence..
good thing is now they did the Syclone, maybe we'll have the Typhoon too..
