Fire Truck is High Speed...no doubt. Readers Digest issue. Pretty sure the KW Anteater is a Summer by the wheels. ![]() A few more from the series. They can also be found packaged as Grell. If memory serves yours is the '39 Ward La France. |

#1 is a Realtoy #2 is a "T.C." (often sold under the Imperial distribution). The actual name always eludes me. Tack Cheung or something like that. This is one I always have to double check in my copy of the Small Scale Encyclopedia. (I'm not at home, so I am not able to check at the present time). #3 I can't remember. Someone will know this though, if I can't remember in time. #4 I have a set of these, and can't remember the name off the top of my head. The Majorette-looking dot wheels and blue windows are the "tells." #5 silver Porsche appears to be the same manufacture as the purple Corvette. I don't remember having that casting, but my guess would be the same "T.C." |

#4 - Happy Kind Yes, that's the brand name! I was going into my Photo bucket, to try and find a labeled picture of one of mine, and the name hit me before I could find a pic.

I believe all of those are the new generic Motor Max castings, from the Toys R Us (Fast Lane) gift-sets. It's a shame Motor Max stopped making their licensed cars - they were some of the best budget line models. |

Yeah, Motormax, another brand down the tubes, their generic castings are just not in my area of interest, bring back Fresh Cherries, American Grafitti, even Hi-Riserz.... |
