The 2023 Toy Fair starts this week. If you see any nice links, maybe they can be posted here so they’re all in one place. Like you, I love seeing what’s new and coming up
Considering how many models are being made in that god awful resin nowadays, or models that have already been made in die cast and nothing exciting, I should think my wallet at least will breathe a big sigh of relief
I was told Autoart will not be participating in this year's fair nor will they be announcing new models all at once like they did in the past.
Announcements will be made through the year as they have been doing post Covid.
Autoart, PMA, Spark, CMC, GMP/Acme etc won't be participating. Don't expect much from this show.
Like motor shows and other trade fairs the costs are too high and attendance is low...
Instead new announcements will be done online like the past 2 years.

I always feel that it's never as good as I think it's going to be. I guess I just build myself up too much! I'll check it out though as there might be some new ones I'm interested in.
Fully opening Giulia GTA, Maybach landaulet and The Quintessential Ricer, that's what I call a variety 😁 I see they're milking that R34 dry, for a good reason.
The MK1 Ford Granada Shown in unpainted prototype under the MCG brand is interesting.
The wipers suggest right hand drive, now we need the MKII Granada the same way....
Let's look on the bright side: most (all?) 4-door Benzes by Norev have opening doors. If it's anything to go by, the hood of the T and the trunk of the sedan seem to show slightly increased panel gaps...#buildingexpectations

Here you can find photo of w124 (among other models) and it looks like it will be openable, and what is important, with correct front door shutline (unlike their c124).
Looks like the W124 and S124 open Think the saloon has the eight hole alloys (yes!!), and the estate has the manhole cover alloys (can’t remember their name in German now). Please let that be a 500E. I still think it is

Anyone know anything about the VW Golf rally on the trailer shown here?
If it's something on the way, I hope it's a Solido available separately.
I don't have the space for the whole outfit, and would prefer a metal representation.....
It has been showed as a preview by Ottomobile some time ago... according to their last policy when they released the Rothmans Porsche set, they should come as separate models so if anyone is only interested in the car or the van it's possible to buy just one model and not both.
Do my eyes deceive, or does that rear door look proportioned like that of a V221 long wheelbase? Could there finally be a long wheelbase V221 model, and full opening too?
And it's also available in black? My favorite S-class! I need that!
Although if that's the engine out of the model, I imagine it's going to cost a ton. That might be more detail than I can afford. I'm used to the molded 1-piece plates of Norev.
That's one of my favourite generations of S Class too!
