Majorette Porsche 934 Porsche Edition

Matchbox International Terrastar

The International Terrastar is one of the cool realistic models released by Matchbox in their mainline models. The metal part of the front has features similar to a real International truck like the downward-center sloping grille lines, lights, and bumper. The body has line shapes for compartments, doors, and a vent on the roof. Windows are present on the cab and passenger trailer of the truck. An ambulance warning light bar with the same color of the windows are on the roof of the cab. Paint designs mixed with white and gold cover the sides of the red body. It looks like an ambulance for a real hospital instead of one in the fictional world of Matchbox Originals.

The model was made as a plastic body and metal base. The interior is non-existent. I tried peeking under the front wheel wells to see if there is some detail inside, but there is none. The plastic body and blank interior are probably cost reduction measures Matchbox did for this model. With those cost reduction measures, the International Terrastar feels hollow if you hold it.

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...

Hot Wheels Deora 3

The Deora 3 is the latest version of the Deora from Hot Wheels. I read online that the first Deora was based on a concept prototype of a real vehicle, then followed by the Deora 2. The second Deora looks like a fantasy vehicle unlike the first. The third, featured in this post looks more cool..and impractical. I will go back to the impractical part later. The Deora 3 looks like an roofless racing SUV. I estimated the SUV size of this car because it was able to fit a bicycle and a surfboard at the back. Both are long and ate up the passenger part of the car. The front of the car has the passengers, one for the driver and one for the passenger. The car retains some of the elements of its predecessor like the surfboard and general front shape of the Deora. Paint decorations are on the sides filling the middle of the car. Now for the impractical aspect of this car. The fantasy model is usable only in sunny days. If there is rain, I am certain the riders and their stuff at the back wi...

Bburago Ferrari F355 Berlinetta Blog Review

  I tried to write creative titles for my blog posts as suggested by the site, yet visitors don't seem to notice the changes. I found it ineffective, so I changed back to a more simpler way of giving titles to my blog posts. I will call the post review as Blog Review after the title. Maybe I will get back to learning and writing entertainment-style (click-bait) titles when I get desperate for attention. XD Back to the topic. I checked my collection for diecast models to review for the blog and stumbled upon my Bburago cars. All my current Burago cars are Ferraris so you will get plenty of this brand when it comes to Burago models. I have here the F355 Ferrari Berlinetta by Bburago. It is part of their Race and Play series with the scale of 1/43. The F355 is a 90's Ferrari with a box appearance that may be the supercar fad during that decade. The Burago 1/43 interpretation is decent and similar to the real car. The wheels are large enough to fill the wheel wells unlike other B...
