And since my cat keeps inspecting whatever i bring back home, i bought a another feline to defend the whole pack.. :grin:


Aww, Baube! :grin: I'd also say that 'other feline' can keep your cat company as well!

went to my local Walmart today and came out with a 1950 Studebaker truck ( PEZ candies not included ) and saw a pair of Mercury Econoline . The card ( in french , a rare thing ) says Ford and Mercury pick-up trucks but both have Mercury written on the tailgate . I might buy it but i'd prefer by far them to be regular versions and a Ford paired with a Mercury .

Not a vehicle but as i don't usually buy this brand ( the one i buy was out of stock ) , i just realize that Tata is the owner of this company.. if someone had told me one day that i'd be drinking tea made by a car manufacturer.. :lol:

does this means that the tea bags are Nano size ? .. :whistle:

Nice one, I remember seeing that one in catalogs during my childhood, but got it only much more recently secondhand.

Got my first ever Alpina B7 and i think my only 3rd Hyundai ( am i getting :crazy: ? i even consider buying the Kona while i hate both designs in real life ! )

Another Urus joins my little garage ( i think i have a fixation on that truck.. :lol: )

Finally , i guess buying pink cars had to happen at some point.. even if its not the only pink one i ever wanted ..

And.... I just got my first "Americans regular car" in big scale
A 1:24 2006 Ford Fusion, made by Maisto 😍

I remember Maisto's Fusion, and seeing it in a german toy store. I liked it, but its tyres were grey and chalky. Most large scale Maisto models had the same problem at that point, so I didn't dare buying it.

One day, I realized this was a chemical reaction with the rubber, and cleaning the tires with water and soap made them look alright. But I've never found a Maisto Fusion since then.

Thanks :smile:
It always been my favorite gen

I'd like to buy another one to unpack it but unlike Hot Wheels/Matchbox , they're a little bit expensive to do so.. :ohwell:

I finally got the Toyota Yaris GR from Solido:

Probably the closest I can get from my orange Yaris in term of color, but I still hope that some day they will release the regular Yaris in addition to that GR model.

I wouldn't hope too much for a 1/43 model. Toyota Europe doesn't commission promotional model cars anymore, and Toyota Japan keeps sticking to that weird 1/30 scale since fifteen years now...

Maybe. But just after I first read your post a few days ago, I learned that Bburago will also release a 1/43 GR Yaris. So will Majorette at a smaller scale. Something already done by Tomica. This looks like a "tree that hides the forest" situation, with scale model manufacturers choosing the wilder GR Yaris rather than the standard ones.
