Got this one today

 

thats the one I was talking about

 

Nice!!!

 

Thought so but wasn't sure. I wish the color was a little closer to the car on the package but never the less it's awesome

 

yes it is awesome

 

I saw a Maisto 2013 Boss 302 the other day at my kid's lower elementary school. The student had used it in a diorama. I have never seen one on the shelf.

 

This one? It's just now coming out. I'm anxious to get one.

 

Lol I can see you now, wowed by this kids project all because the car he used in it

 

I know I would be!

 

Me too, just a funny concept

 

Never heard of this brand where can you find them? And what scale are they?

 

Maisto 1/64s are found at Walmarts, Targets, Toys R Us stores and some others. They are the same size as Hotwheels or Matchbox. One drawback is they do not have interiors. The windows are blacked out. But, you get nice details of the bodies.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

LOL, I did mention it to my wife. I believe it was more of a red color and had 5 spoke rims though.

 

Good observation. The pic I posted is a preproduction. The version that is in stores and which was used in the kid's project has the five spokes.

 

I have a good eye for die cast. Been collecting for 40+ years and have about 14,000 pieces myself, Johnny Lightnings, Greenlights, Autoworlds, Hotwheels, Matchboxes, Tomica, etc. If you have ever visited www.jlcollector.net or www.glcollector.com, those are both my websites.

 

Wow! I have visited those sites for many years! I had no idea they were yours. Very cool. I've been a diecast collector for a while, too. Not that long though lol.

 

My gf picked me up about 10 hot wheels this morning after her class

 

Glad you enjoy the sites! I have one for matchbox, too, but it only has certain series on it. I haven't added anything to it in years either. http://mboxcollector.tripod.com/.

 

I need a girlfriend like that!
