This one is maybe the last 1/64 car made in Argentina, were only for sale in Falabella stores, for the price of a Hot Wheels, but Hw wasnt for sale in those days, probably bought it 2 years ago, because they were for sale, nobody bought them....

All plastic except the axles, that are really hard (1 mm stell), and the bolts
The only cool idea was the set of stickers included

Only a model was available in a lot of colors.

Well, the stickers are a fun inclusion. The car, not as much. :lol:
It kind of has design cues from a modern Dodge Charger, with a Camaro rear end.

A little crude, but at least it's made in your home country. I myself sometimes go out of my way to buy a toy that is made in the United States.

With the stickers, it looks like a children's meal toy from a fast food restaurant.



I think the only brand that makes toys that is left in the US anymore is American Plastic Toys.

It doesn't look anything like a Charger, to me uit looks more like the Chevy SS Concept car.

The idea with the Stickers is very good :thumbup: but the regret is that the casting itself is not that funny :(

It does have a certain charm about it for a toy. I don't see it ever being a highly sought after toy, but it is an interesting piece just the same. Thank you for showing it!
