C3 is the 3rd gen (current), 2016+ according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citro%C3%ABn_C3#Third_generation_(SX/SY;_2016)
but it may be the 2020 restyled version too, no idea how to recognize it :grin:

The Corsa is the F generation (current), 2019+ according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel_Corsa#Corsa_F_(2019)

got to buy two pieces of German engineering today . I like the 500E but i'm more than happy to get my hands on the RS2 ( if only it was a real one... )

Got a japanese one-of-a-kind too .. Funny part is i wasn't even supposed to get in the store as i was sure i'll be deceived ( looking for this , saw blue, white but no yellow anymore.. )

Haven't seen those yet. HW & Matchbox availability is rather patchy this year. Just last week Lidl had some HW on sale, but they were the leftovers from last year. And the only Matchbox I've seen in stores are the horribly overpriced Collectors Series (and yet they look cheap).

At least there are still some "part work" models in librairies. I've bought a lovely 1/18 Datsun 240Z in East African Safari livery, it's just cracking.

Nice, but i'll be honest, before looking at Google i thought the Z would be painted like those Land Rover that brings tourists for some wild animals pics.... :whistle:

Matchbox is kind of same since a few weeks/months... different liveries but same models . I got a Bentley Bentayga but not much more..

kind of fell in love with those Greenlight Series
http://www.greenlighttoys.com/index.php?id=470
http://www.greenlighttoys.com/index.php?id=510
and another series called Vintage Ad Series ( not on their website anymore.. already finished ? )

But not with the price, at about 10$ each ( including taxes ) it could easily get a costly fun..

and there is that funny LLV one..

Still no new Hot Wheels around since the blue Ford Bronco/yellow Corvette C8R/red Ford Mk IV batch.

However, I saw a few of Matchbox's Moving Parts series models during a short trip to France this week. Nothing truly interesting in the selection, and in the end I just bought the '88 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. I also found recent and less recent Welly 3-inch models : the latest Supra, Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, Jeep Gladiator, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and a Dodge Charger Pursuit. Nice.

Went to a Greenlight shopping spree... nice for the saved space ( they are 1/64 ) but it gets expensive about as quickly as the bigger ones when you can't control yourself... :lol:

Did you buy them online or are there stores who carry Greenlight model cars locally ?

I went on a day trip on the other side of the german border, last week. Not really a shopping trip, but I managed to find a few Matchbox & Hot Wheels. I don't know if this Facebook image link will work, but here goes.

i really hope that MR2 will make it that way here... :bave:

funny, i bought the 500 and the Land Cruiser pick-up a few days ago
recently got the RX-7 , the Formula E car and the Rampage ( twice, 2nd one had a damaged packaging but i'm ok with that, i planned to open it anyways.. )

( wait, its already 2 months since the 1st Rampage i bought, time flies fast.. )

I've just purchased these three Hot Wheels at my local Lidl store, among them the Rampage (I found it very nice!)

Don't hope for too much. The MR2's windscreen is visibly too tall compared to the side windows. And the lack of livery makes the car look cheap.

i won't mind... i'm waiting for the last 3 decades to have one... :wink:

the German M5... not sure if its available here but i found a UK Police livery one .

there was some other UK cars but i'll wait , i don't really see why i should pay the double for the same car just because they put them in a different packaging ...

to Bux48 : i got the 500E too, i guess its the closest i'll ever be to own one... :grin:

Yes, in this case it was used by the official Peugeot team in the Group B era: https://www.diecastlegends.com/Images/Product/Default/xlarge/SPK2680_1.jpg

It's the first model of a very interesting kiosk collection of rally assistance vehicles already seen in France and now starting here too :wink: but I don't think I can buy others.. :whistle:
