HO Vehicles Are these new ?
Posted by lyctus on Thursday, May 6, 2004 1:54 AM
Recent visit to my LHS I discovered a new line in 1/72nd and 1/48th scale vehicles. I'm not into vehicles in a big way, so these could be well known to others, but I was impressed with the quality and detail of these little beauties made by Hongwell out of China and marketed as "Cararama". Not a great variety on offer, VeeDubs and Ford '48 pick ups, but very nice. The other great thing was that they only cost me $A3.95each for the individual cars and even less in sets. Rubber wheels with nice hubs, crystal clear windows and interior and underbody detail. Working tail gate on the pick up and nice paint jobs.[:)]
Has any one else seen these babies ? What makes and models have you seen ?
Geoff I wish I was better trained.

I've seen these listed in UK magazines for a while now - they are indeed ludicrously cheap! Check out www.m-s-i-m.co.uk as they have a lot of them listed
