Been searching for this for more than a year. Finally got a seller that too at a reasonable price.

Not able to find a single one after visiting around 7 toy shops today. And everyone still keeps saying there is enough stock you’ll get at mrp on reddit. Are the stocks finished or will there be more? And how many of you have actually got it?

Pop Race vs Mini GT McLaren F1 🧡

Had these two side by side and thought the difference was pretty cool. Bought the Poprace first and then i had this cool idea to get the Mini GT one for comparison!

The Pop Race has noticeably more detail, especially with the opening engine bay and the engine underneath. The orange also pops way more.

The Mini GT is based on F1 chassis #075, which was commissioned by Aziz Ojjeh and finished in this really cool Yquem golden-orange shade, named after Château d’Yquem wine.

The car was later owned by his brother Mansour Ojjeh, who was a shareholder, Executive Director and Vice Chairman of McLaren Technology Group, and one of the key figures behind McLaren for decades. The Yquem colour also went on to inspire McLaren’s Volcano Orange.

So the Pop Race is more flashy with the colour and detailing, while the Mini GT is going for that specific real-car accuracy. Honestly, pretty cool having both versions. 😅

Which one would you guys pick — the more detailed Pop Race or the more historically accurate Mini GT?

I'm so happy i got this for only rs 400😭 Closest to the Initial D car ...no ugly wheels or weird stance. Even if hw releases it it will be very hard to find plus the pop up headlight feature is soo cool. Truly one of a kind

I bought Majorette Wave 5 BMW M3 from toyfort.in on 26 Sep. Since I wasn't familiar with their website, I opted for cash on delivery. On the same day as i ordered (26 sep) I got a whatsapp message from the toyfort, sending me the ss of the product asking me to confirm, that kinda gave me slight assurance that the website is legit.

The product was shipped via amazon shipping the next day 27th september. I received the package on 1st of october. Dumb me didn't really unbox and verify before paying, because the earlier message from them asking me to confirm the product, so I trusted them blindly. Then onto the next dumb part by me, i unboxed it right away without unboxing video. Surprise, surprise there was nothing inside, just two layers of box and thermacol. I was so upset at myself and the seller.

I assumed that the seller is scam so no use of reaching out to them. So i reached out to amazon shipping support, which is of no use as well, their customer support was rude af telling me to reach out to the vendor that they can't do anything. I was insisting that the cash on delivery was facilitated by them, but the customer support guy kept repeating the same thing in rude manner. Never imagined amazon support to be this bad, I always had good experience atleast from amazon website's support.

Then, I was like okay, this is an 800+ rs lesson. At last, I did reach out to the seller via whatsapp, I was furious and called them out for scam. They got upset saying they did send the product, its amazon shipping that would have scammed, their delivery partners might have taken the product and sent it. The product when i received it, didn't look tampered. They offered to give me refund but when i shared my upi, they didn't send any money.

Anyway I don't know who to trust in this case. I know my money is lost, I just wanted share my experience with you all so yall can make informed decision.

I have attached all screenshots and order proof whatever I have available.

TL;DR: Ordered a Majorette BMW M3 (₹800+) via COD from toyfort.in, verified order on WhatsApp, and had it shipped via Amazon Shipping. Paid upfront and unboxed without video proof to find an empty box stuffed with thermocol. Amazon Shipping support was rude and refused to help since they only handled delivery, while the seller blamed courier theft,. Lost the money, posting as a PSA.

Got some genuinely amazing pics this time.

Hi guys, i am again here to yap bout my JDM collection, today just by looking at it again, i came to know that half of my collection is jdm, which is damn awesome and I love it.
Also to add I have the matchbox gtr, j imports rx7 fc, matchbox honda offroad pink, mitsubishi j imports incoming. Excited for them 🙏🏼🔥
Please feel free to drop down your views about what should I add next and what you like about it.

After impulse buying 110+ castings(80+ HW and 30+ matchbox) in last 2 months, i have come to conclusion that maychbox mainline card is of better quality than HW mainline card.
