Majorette Porsche 934 Porsche Edition

Maisto Diecast Icons 2009 Corvette C06

I only had small scale Corvettes and always thought that they were just another muscle car. When this larger scale model came out at a wholesale store, I took a chance of getting one in addition to a couple of cars in the same series. Good thing I did it because I got to appreciate the beauty of Corvettes with this C06.

The model is 1:24 scale and has more details than the smaller diecast cars such as side mirrors, spoked rims, and plastic on the metal body. The interior is easy to see because of the opening doors. The paint designs are the large paint stripe in the center over the yellow body and the Corvette logos. The interior paint designs are extremely minimal and applied on the steering wheel. There is a sticker attached on the dashboard console behind the steering wheel, a regular feature of Maisto models.

I think this Icons series is a level below the Special Edition series because it lacks a fourth opening feature and the wheels do not turn. I remember Maisto making models at this scale that has the wheel turning feature, but those were in the 90's. They most likely omitted this feature to lower costs.

The Corvette looks good in this basic Icons series in its signature racer yellow body appearance.

Matchbox Porsche 911

The Porsche 911 Turbo is the third car in the 5-pack. It comes in red, shiny body paint with some paint designs in the right places. This is a cool car because it is very detailed for a Matchbox model. It has wipers, side mirrors, same sized wheels, and detailed interior. The model is an old casting, based on the date. I checked the date and it says 2001 with the old Matchbox logo during that year. I noticed that the 911 is a wider model compared to the present releases. It may be the standard size during those years that allowed the designers to add more details than usual.

Hot Wheels Aisle Driver

The Aisle Driver is a fantasy model of a racing pushcart. I don't think this pushcart can hold any grocery item with its appearance. The pushcart has an open front and back basket that will certainly make grocery items drop the floor as it moves. This idea most likely came from role-playing a pushcart as a race car that some people do when they do groceries. The pushcart uses the Hot Wheels default wheels setup with the large wheels at the back and regular wheels at the front. The metal part is dedicated to the basket. The basket has some mesh patterns and a couple of pegs in the middle that is most likely can be used by Lego minifigures. The plastic base has a bumper in the front and footstep at the back. The yellow driver figure does not move but can be detached from the handlebar and attached to the other parts of the basket. The figure can stand on its own and is similar to a Megabloks figure. I was wondering how this model can run if this becomes real. I cannot see any...

Majorette Porsche 934 Porsche Edition

Hello Reader! Welcome to the blog! If you are a frequent visitor, you noticed it has been a while since I posted here. My supposedly once a week plan kind of have gotten off-track because of things outside of my hobby. I still make time to continue with the blog like now, and will try to restart my once a week post plan. To begin the restart, here is the Porsche 934, Porsche Edition by Majorette. Porsche 934 Right Side. The Porsche 934, or the 934 is a car from the 5-car Porsche Edition set by Majorette that is exclusive to Target stores. I found this set at a Target and it looked like it was a peg warmer since there we multiples of it. The multiples looked like it had not moved much and a kind of dusty. I took one home for my collection because I know Majorette is a premium brand and it has nice details. Porsche 934 Front Right Side. Out of the 5 cars in the set, 2 were exclusives to this Porsche set. The 934 is one of the exclusive cars and it looks really good. The paint designs are...
