I've got a couple of Corgi '65 Fastbacks that need some TLC, so I have started trying to watch for beaters to scavange parts from. Here's a cow pie being peddled on eBay as made from old Corgi dies :



It has got to be the absolute WORST 1:43rd I have ever seen attempted. It may attempt to resemble a Corgi, but it's NOT from a Corgi die, that's for sure. :stubborn: Note the remainents of the suicide bomber behind the wheel. Suprisingly, the starting bid is a mere $10!! :shock: jeeze...

I think this clenches the notion that there are some diecasts/toys/models not worth adding to the ol' collection.

SO, what's been the the worst thing you've come across?

 

Well, it depends on what scale you're referring to. For me, the worst 1/18 scale car i came across was the MotorMax '58 Vette. Their '64.5 Mustang is a close 2nd.

 

oh... looking at that I'd swear it smaller than 1:25... I have to take my hat off you your 1:18ths... It's a commitment when you try to display a collection of them! I'm not sure how I'll get just the hot Wheels/Johnney Lightning cars up much less my larger stuff. may after my divorce is final... The pride of my 1:18ths, a GMP trio of the LeMans winners was in a box that turned up missing 2 years ago in a move ...
