Just Unveiled: Kyosho Lamborghini Series 6... Posted: 11 Aug 2015 11:48 PM PDT Kyosho
has unveiled its newest set, coming in September, and it is a welcome
sight: And yeah, of course a new set of Lamborghinis is always welcome, but considering the disaster that was the last Lamborghini set, this one is extra welcome. As far as I know, all of these are existing castings, or at least most. The Veneno hasn't been part of a Series yet, but all - I think - have been seen before. And of course new models would make collectors a little happier, but based on the these pics they look much better than Series 5. That series was full of poorly executed duds. If I remember correctly, Kyosho used a different factory and the models just didn't look right. Wheels too big, proportions off, and quality bad. Since then seems to have gotten back to normal, and thankfully this Lambo set reflects it. Hopefully that will be the same once we have it in hand. Look for these models at Japan Booster in September, including the Karuwaza exclusive in blue instead of matte black. (Thanks to 829 Japan for the info.) |

Finally! The Hot Wheels E Case Zamacs are arriving at Walmart... Posted: 11 Aug 2015 07:52 PM PDT A
quick heads up for our readers... It looks like the long lost Hot Wheels E Case Zamacs are finally appearing: Lamley reader Jamph Phillips sent us this pic from one of his local Walmarts in the Northwest US. It is nice to finally see them. If you remember, earlier this year, a strike at the Los Angeles port threw a ton of things off, including Mattel's toy distribution. The E cases in particular sat on the docks, and by the time things were resolved, Walmart had already moved on to the next order. I was assured by my contacts at Mattel that they would appear later, and it appears now is the time. So, if you are like me, there is a 3-car gap in your Zamac collection that you can now fill. Hopefully. We assume these will appear everywhere, but being an older batch it could be sporadic. Let us know if you find them... |
