Got them opened up. Now to find the F50

I have a stupid question: Is there a website that shows all of the cars produced in a given year? When I was younger, many decades ago, I lost a truck at the beach and I'd love to find it again some day. I don't know the brand but I know the timeframe when I owned it.

I hope this thing gets a Silver Series version, with the original windshield.

for hot wheels/matchbox there are the "fandom" where you can somehow find models per year. Don't know if the many other brands have something similar

>>11663943
I'm actually surprised there hasn't been a silver series or premium release for it. I know it doesn't really happen for "fantasy" cars, but the Deora II is one of their most iconic original castings. I'd argue it's on the same level as the Twin Mill and the Bone Shaker.

>I'd argue

Deora II is far more iconic than Bone Shaker.

Got one of these for Christmas for Gaslands. It has a weird lock/unlock plastic switch on the button but idk what that does.
Not sure what colour to paint it and what weapons to give it. I think I might do BRG and maybe keep the Union Jack on the top.

Should unlock and lock top on the body. Not form every version tho.

Was thinking about Micro Machines recently. They had trains (highly flawed, would topple over because of their monotrack design, and I don't think they had any railroad crossing pieces), they had playsets (some fantasy like military ones, some things that were fold-outs like a big van that folded out to a city, some were IRL buildings you'd find in American suburbia), they had all sorts of car models, and yet they disappeared around the turn of the millennium. Were they that unpopular or were they just culled when Galoob was acquired?

I have a few very old fold-out brochures that were the cars for 1993 or 1994 or whatever. I'd scan 'em but they're buried deep at my parents' house.

>>11666271
These would be from around 1985, so thank you, but I'm too old.

WCT/Jazwares did a reboot of them, a few years ago, but I haven't seen them in a couple years. Haven't seen them at my Walmart since, I think, 2021. Found some Jada F&F cars, though.
