Yonezawa Cheetah 4WD

Here is a very rare 1/16 Yonezawa Cheetah 4WD buggy new in box . This car comes from 1981 and it is a true permanent 4WD with front and rear differential. These features are really a treasure on a frame buggy of those years. See also the attached video below.

The buggy has also 4 soft tyre in Tamiya Hornet style. A load of batteries are needed in order to use this car. It still works great.

The car also comes with light and double speed with two switchs under the buggy. Still made in Japan.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ertl Precision Key Series International 5488

Here is the 1/16 die-cast farm tractor International From Ertl Precision Key Series. In my opinion is really a masterpiece; a very heavy tractor with loads of metal on it of course. Details are amazing. The front engine door can be opened, like the two lateral doors and rear windows.

Like a previous post, always in this blog, i bought also the International 1455XL by Universal Hobbies in the same scale but the general quality is not good like this Ertl. You can see a pic of this 1455xl tractor here below.

 

 

Universal Hobbies International 1455XL in 1:16

Here is my die-cast Universal Hobbies International 1455XL in 1:16 scale. It is in limited edition. Only 2000 pieces worldwide. The real tractor comes form 1983. My model is the no. 544 producted.

This model is well painted with a lot of details. I'm not fully happy due to door and rear window. They cant be opened like the ertl 1:16 prestige series. The price is very similar to ertl so i cant understand why UH choiced this bad option.

In the pics you can se also my other 1:32 International tractor by Schuco and the very nice (and heavy) 1:16 International 5488 by Ertl Key prestige. Yes here you can open the two lateral doors and rear big window.
