Support your local demo derby.

I found one in a five pack several weeks back. For a sub $1 model it's not half bad.

Nice details on that! I like some of the Maisto 1:64 cars. :thumbup:

Good find! Their catalogue shows them available in red and blue as well. Three colours! Unusual for a company that doesn't change the colours of their models often.

Never knew that Maisto was making a Colorado - one to look out for! As per many of their models, the wheels aren't the best, but the casting itself looks to be well done for their pricepoint.

Nice truck, I'll like to collect this one, if any newer Maisto ever show up in the stores here.

I was interested in the Colorado when I was in the market for a new truck, but I didn't like how the rear side windows flared up on the newer ones,
that's just me, I like vehicles that have body side lines parallel to the ground, or mostly with maybe just a small flare here or there.....
........unfortunately most vehicle makers these days have embraced this angled look to appear fast or something.

This was in a 5 pack at Walmart for $3.77. :thumbup:

the five pack one is pretty easy to find, although I think the blue may just be easyer to see on the page.

I shall require one of these. Though I must admit I like the styling of the Canyon better.

I've been hunting for the Blue Colorado for a couple weeks now. It doesn't even seem like any of the Walmart's near me carry any sort Maisto. Anyone here have a suggestion of where I might be able to find one of the blue Colorados? All my internet searches have turned up zilch!

Where'd you find the blue one? I've been to 6 different Walmarts in SE MI and Toledo, and all the walmarts I've been to only have the Black one in the 5 pack. I'm still hunting for a blue!

It amazes me that the casting has only been available for about six months, and there are already FOUR variations. While other Maisto cars keep being re-released to death in the same single color for 15 years straight.

Here's the police version, which so far has only been available in 9-packs at WalMart (and may be an exclusive (?), as each pack has one new emergency vehicle in the bottom left slot).

I had no idea Maisto was still doing small scale. I need this. And the new Camaro.

actually, there is a fifth one in solid white, its a 1/64 pullback from a series called real gears, which is a re- naming of the older pocket power racer series. as for the emergency vehicles, maisto has gone the way of mattell with 9 packs, most hotwheels and matchbox 9 packs usually have a vehicle in one corner(top left for hotwheels, top right for matchbox) with a specific paintjob that is only done for the 9 packs, not for the singles.(recent versions of the hideous hotwheels Datsun 620 come to mind) maisto is doing an exclusive decoration for the 9 packs, with emergency vehicles as the theme

the real gears casting list so farPosted Image

As much as I want that police version, I don't know how I feel about buying a nine pack for the one specific model. Especially since it's Maisto, because there might be two or three keepers out of the bunch?

Mark, were the blue and red variations found in a single or multipack? Assuming you found them in Canada.

I saw that nine pack with the police pickup but didn't realize it was the Colorado. I took a photo to post but got waylaid....thanks for posting the photo of the truck alone. I just may have to buy it to get that one model......sheesh!

Yes. They were found at Wal-mart here in Canada. Both Colorados and two versions of the '16 Camaro were in new boxed 5-packs:

I might have to pop across the border and try my luck in Canada. I've finally seen a red one in MI, but still no luck with the blue.

Well, after a long search...a dozen different Walmarts in Michigan, Tennessee and Ontario...My search is over. A Walmart in Richmond Hill, Onatario had 4 blue Colorados (same package as Mark's). They now only have 1 :bangles: :woot: Thank you everyone for your suggestions and help. :bowing: I can't wait to get home to see my 2 year old's reaction when Daddy gives him a little Daddy's truck.

The red one has officially been spotted as a single (at Dollar Tree this morning), and I'm confident the black and blue will follow as singles, as well, for anyone who was patient enough to wait (I was not / am not / never will be).
