Error, Error - 2009 Chevy Silvarado

Yup found another variations, this time its on a 2009 HEAT FLEET series featuring the CHEVY SILVARADO casting. The side flame is darker then normal and that the yellow color has been block by the same flame. The bike is chrome, blue window glass , OH5 wheels, that about all. To date, haven't seen any other on this variation.

Haulers - Green Hauler

The Hauler series, a series of casting featuring truck or power trucks which is big in size then the conventional 1/64 scale casting. Found this over at the "EVIL BAY" and since its big and HEAVY, shipping cost a bit more then normal, over all a nice and rare casting that you wont see nowadays. The series no more in production as far as i'm aware.

Back packaging showing all the others casting available in the series and its variant color. The slogon feature on the series is "Over the road POWER Trucks"

The tempo on the side body is actually stickers and not painted on tempo. One thing for sure, its darn HEAVY.. Diecast body and plastic black base.

And to top it off with a Christmas spirit, Mattel went and put in an additional "SANTA" in the driver seat. Simply awesome and thus making it a chase in the series. More pics below, just click on it to enlarged and enjoy.

Matchbox Haul - Nov 2009

Some Matchbox haul recently. Lots of new casting and new card packaging. But only get a few as not really into matchbox. Just grab some nice, cute and interesting casting. Enjoy.

Some notable interesting casting would be the ICE CREAM CRUISER and the 63'CADILLAC AMBULANCE (the almost similar 59' CADILLAC was use as ECTO-1 in the 80s GHOST BUSTER movie). The white Honda Civic was a pain to get and sold out fast. Its the 4th color release for 2009 as previous color was red, yellow and silver.
