Went to sapphire toys (next to lifestyle) here after coming to know that welly make cars are available there. It's been many years since i've been blown off my feet seeing completly new range of scalemodels and this christmas day, i was thrown off my feat when i saw what they had.

They have tons of 1:18/24/32 etc scales of Welly make cars! Here's a list of 1:18 cars that they have:

1955 OLDSMOBILE SUPER 88 (CONVERTIBLE)
1962 FORD THUNDERBIRD SPORTS ROADSTER (SOFT-TOP)
1963 CHEVROLET IMPALA (CONVERTIBLE)
1966 PONTIAC GTO
1948 CHEVROLET FLEETMASTER
1956 FORD F-100 PICK UP
PORSCHE 911 (997) GT3 RS
PEUGEOT 207CC
AUDI TT ROADSTER (SOFT-TOP)
1972 PONTIAC FIREBIRD TRANS AM
1975 PEUGEOT 504
1970 CHEVROLET CHEVELLE PRO STREET
2003 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER
1970 FORD MERCURY COUGAR ELIMINATOR
1970 FORD MERCURY COUGAR XR7
1964-1/2 FORD MUSTANG COUPE
1969 FORD MUSTANG

Needless to say, i first concentrated on 1:18s,Few were of same colour and most were of different colours.

Here's today's haul, all are Wellys and 1:18 scale (My first haul of wellys in this scale! Am elated!)

1963 CHEVROLET IMPALA - Red
1970 FORD MERCURY COUGAR ELIMINATOR - Lime Yellow/black stripes
1972 PONTIAC FIREBIRD TRANS AM - Mustang Blue colour
1969 FORD MUSTANG BOSS - In Orange colour
There you have it, my first haul of wellys and that too with 3 musclemen in it! I couldn't have asked for a perfect end to this year!

Came across these two cute little Kinsmarts there and picked them up:
1:34 Honda Integra Type R - Auto racer version, white with awesome logos all over
1:42 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor - Amazing Blue/white cop car with lights and stuff.

Picks of all the haul will take time, but i have around 3 pics which i clicked in sapphire toys which show all the cars in display, will post them by tomorrow

Scalemodel guru, praveen sathaye saab was in town this weekend and what started off as showing him around diecast hubs turned out to be a mutual diecast shopping spree! I had bought the 4 welly muscle cars and the two Kinsmarts on Friday, then i met up praveen saab on sunday and we hit Sapphire toys. We both ended up picking lot of things. I picked up the following:

1:18 Welly 1970 Chevelle SS 454 in Metallic Yellow

Following 1:30 something Kinsmarts:
2009 Nissan GTR R35 - Dark Grey
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII - Rally Art version in Red/White
Subaru Impreza WRC 2007 - 7 Solberg

I had overlooked the yellow Chevelle during my last visit, i
found it this time around and praveen too suggested to pick it
and so it came home. The Subaru too was his suggestion. The GTR
was my pick and so was the lancer, the only lancer i had so far
was a chotu tomica!

Again on Monday, met up praveen saab and casually went to
reliance time out in cunningham road, the shopping spree
continued and bought home Optimus prime and bumblebee quick
conversion chotu kits. Not exactly scalemodels, but they are
admirable vehicles and these guys were needed to guard my garage

Then we headed off to pantaloons in sigma mall cunningham road
and I picked these up @ 15% off
All 1:24 Maisto Assembly kits:
Ferrari 550 Maranello - Ferrari Red
Corvette Z06 - Yellow (finally a yellow corvette!)
Dodge Viper GTZ - White with Blue stripes

Will post pics soon.

R1 2009 available in Bangalore?

Hi Guys! I have been hunting for the R1 2009 scale model in Bangalore, but to no avail.. Is there a place I can find it at? Some places had the R1, but were 2008 or older models.

[srini]

even I searched like hell.We may be able to get our hands on it next year...
As I've noticed,scale models of recently launched bikes are hard to find and that's not the case with cars...

Hmmm... Maybe it will come once the official 2009 R1s are ready to burn the roads here in India..
Do update once you can lay your hands on one..
