Love them or hate them 50 years ago they broke the ground for other Diecast brands to become big. They changed how Diecast cars were presented in the toy market. No longer plain looking they had bright colors and a style that screamed 60’s muscle cars that were seen on drag strips and at the local dinner or drive in movies. Threw out the year I’ll be showing them off and once the 50th anniversary sets are released will do side by sides of them next to the original 16 cars.
