Different diecasts - '52 Rambler, Metropolitan by Widea, 1/87th scale...

[Jerry Casper <gremlingts@xxxxxxxxx>]

 I've been trying to locate Motormax cars, and found
this reference to the Rambler and Metro cars by a
company I've never heard of before. One blurb on a
website mentioned "new in 2004", so not to old a
company. HEre's the reference :

"...Another new brand of 1:87 scale diecast models is
called Widea and has been created by the Hong Kong
company Oriental Toys. On their first appearance at
Nuremberg Toyfair they showed two ranges, one
consisting of four different Ford Escort and Focus
rally cars, the other consisting of four different
compact cars from the 1950s: Morris Minor, Austin
Mini, Metropolitan and 1952 Nash Rambler. "

The Rambler look neat. I'll have to find some for my
HO scale train layout project. :)
