French Friday: Questions de taille

This one is from my French holiday this summer. I found it at a Carrefour, a local supermarket chain. It’s a 2CV obviously, by Welly, and the scale is somewhat odd.

The blue one next to it is the Norev 3" which is a bit odd in scale as well actually as it is just made to fit in a 3" sized box so no idea on the actual scale. But it’s definitely smaller than the Welly.

This Welly is 1/60. It says so on the packaging. No idea if there’s more Wellies in this scale or if it’s just made to fit Welly’s packaging. This was the only Welly I saw when I got it. And I’ve never seen such a small Welly again.

It’s certainly not perfect but the line going on the side over the door is spot on, as is the “gap”/hole underneath the bonnet actually. And look: Welly apparently had this 2CV customized at Dagonet’s looking at the headlights.

Not exactly completely separate assemblies the regular 2CV comes with.

Yeah I know: I should get some additional garage diorama for my smaller casts! But it’s French at least.

Not much else to add actually (as you all know the 2CV and Welly I suppose) so I’ll just bother you with more pictures of this 2 euro goodness.
