Neat to see the line-up. See quite a few models I don't recall seeing on the pegs as well as the new '57 Chevy pickup and '55 Chevy. Also see many models that have been a Maisto staple for years. Thanks for sharing these catalog sheets with us!

I like what little new and non-fantasy castings are listed. Problem is, will we ever see them. |

if u mean the 57 chevy 3100 and the 55 chevy bel air, no the are not. a closer look at the page will show that the bel air has fender skirts, none of the hotwheels 55 bel air castings have them. also hotwheels has a chevy 3100, however it is a custom that has a closd bed. the maisto version will have an open bed I already posted this page in the truck of the post fraturing tht msidto Colorado because of the Colorado in this series, but I think ill just leave it here as well Edited by avalanche man, Jul 22 2017, 01:01 AM.

I have always assmued maisto copied these, and mattel just never chose to enforce any rights. the denver pumper surely is a copy of the mb 029 fire pumper, though all metal body with no plastic hose bed, and a little smaller overall. that said it is nice that maisto made this one, but they sure could use a new pumper. and maybe a new ambulance as well. |

I agree there's a lot of models I haven't seen, or at least not lately. Thumbing through the pegs this afternoon I did see one from the next to last page, yellow, called here PB-DRT. Not sure what it stands for, I presume a fantasy design? On a whim I did pick up a green Vantasy... Going back a few years, I remember looking at an online Maisto catalogue and remember seeing a Henry J Gasser. Might have been a premium level model (1/64), but I don't recall ever seeing it hit the market...like it was planned but never made. Does anyone here know anything about that one? |
