Newer batches of U.S. sourced Matchbox vehicles are hitting Poundland stores which include the latest version of the 1985 Toyota 4Runner. A very popular casting with collectors, this latest grey version doesn't seem to have taken off with many even though I personally quite like it. Matchbox should have been the brand to carry off classic Japanese stuff like this but alas that appears to be the job of Hot Wheels these days!

Went way out into the Cascades yesterday on a shoot and crossed this stream on the way.
Premium Car Culture themed Hot Wheels 2018 Toyota 4Runner which due to how expensive they are here in the UK I would normally have left behind had I seen any at Smyths Toys where twin packs cost 18.00!
Luckily for me, my wallet and collection Home Bargains recently acquired a large one off allocation of various new sets and were selling them at an unfeasibly cheap price of 5.99. Predictably it created a frenzy of collectors hunting them down though I was able to snag a couple of sets one of which included the above.
Its not a dressed up basic Mainline, all that extra detailing and metal content does make you feel like you've purchased something a lot more premium.

2002 Toyota 4Runner Sport with 109k miles. This vehicle is in great condition with only a few minor scratches in the paint. It runs flawlessly and has recently had the tires, brakes, radiator, and battery replaced.
I'm selling it to buy something cheaper and do some repairs on our house. Asking price is $11,500 - email me at detzelpretzel(at)gmail.com for more info. I'm located in Cincinnati.
It's not just Hot Wheels who get to produce good and original Japanese classic vehicles, Matchbox got a bite of the apple with their 1985 Toyota 4Runner. Thankfully this boxy but crisp casting makes a return for the 2015 line up plus it also gets a fairly sober and realistic colour scheme.
As ever, distribution remains a problem here in the U.K. but thankfully I managed to get a few from my local Morrisons who remain my only source of modern Matchbox models.

It was 20 years ago last Sunday (the 14th) when I bought this 4Runner new off the lot with only 8 miles on it.
Cars last a long time here in the rust free desert of Arizona.
Hot Wheels doesn't have the monopoly on older type Japanese vehicles thankfully as Matchbox usually have a couple up their sleeves. One of the most prolific of these castings is the 1985 Toyota 4Runner which has been seen in a variety of different colours and liveries over the years including this new 2016 blue version which can currently be found in 10 vehicle sets. The cheap matte grey grille is an obvious cost cutting exercise but overall this is still a nice chunky looking model which looks great in this new colour scheme. Mint and boxed.
