Jim 2 Posted June 24, 2005 Spotted a thread on VW Vortex earlier and, after asking Oichan nicely, got permission to give you guys a quick heads up on a new little toy heading out of Japan for Corrado owners :) The UK ordering page isn't available yet but here are a few pictures of them.. Apparently the shells will be customizable in that they come to you unpainted, and you can do various other customization etc.. thats about all the info I have for now!

Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted June 24, 2005 Cool. Want one Edit: But I'd be worried about parking it up next to my other toy cars in case the paintwork got dinked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted June 24, 2005 If my funds were unlimitred, I'd want one, but seeing the bits of money I might still have to throw at the real big version, I'll give the toy a miss :lol: Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 24, 2005 LOL I might be up for one just for the comedy value of them..... although I still feel having mugs, T shirts and models of/about your car is a bit sandals and bad pullover-ish.... :D Are the windback motors made by Da-Da? If they are they'll go like f'ck!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted June 24, 2005 I think there is a bit of a difference between having a small novelty Corrado toy, and doing like you see some Subaru owners do - WRC Subaru team jacket, and matching baseball cap - groovy ;) :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
