Continuing larger toy cars, here's a nifty Dick Dastardly car from Wacky Races. What a wonderful hunk of plastic it is eh!
Made by Joustra.
Are there any more big Wacky Races toy cars?
That's not a model? I had the model, and there were several.
I think its a toy Baron.
There were at least four kits by MPC, which were recently re-issued. It seems that Crown in Japan also did some of the cars.I loved the Wacky Races. I would have really loved a toy like that.
My fave was the large Addams family style house on wheels but the name escapes me Paul. Which was your fave?
A few years back, Kotobukiya released a fantastic set of all the racers - small but beautifully formed.
Oh, the Japanese are so skilled at miniature work Paul.
Konami did a set, or are they the same?
D'oh! Yes, Kevin! You're right, it's Konami.
I do get tempted by those sometimes. Also contemplated a scratchbuild.
Scratchbuild! Yes! Kev, do it!
I watched the latest Scooby Doo movie recently and Dick Dastardly is the chief villain!
Really! What a cross-over that is! Genius!
I think the car you mean would be the Creepy Coupe.My favourite has to be the Mean Machine, with Dick Dastardly and Muttley.
