Hot Wheels Talbot-Lago T150 (H9065) - 2005 Mainline

Today's offering is a selection from the 2005 Mainline - the Talbot-Lago T-150 (H9065). The art deco vibe is great, and the louvering on the hood is well rendered. The ridge line along the center line represents where the body panels were riveted together. Love this casting and love this version.

Matchbox Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG from the 2005 Regular Series (MB673)

Here is another Matchbox model that looks great. It's MB673 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG from 2005. It has a nice paint job, nice lines, and nice tampos, including a EU license plate. Matchbox says it 1:61 scale, and I have no reason to disbelieve that. Even the interior has a fair amount of detail. As Matchbox is not as popular here with collectors, got it for $0.50 on the card - cheaper than when it was in the stores.
