1:43rd scale Sandman model

They have working steering and opening tailgate on the ute, havnt seen a van, I suppose they open too.
The box is heaps better too. The trax is simpler. I reckon $45 isnt to bad.

The one i'm looking at is a carlectables one.

I can show them to you if you like. I am not really a model collector but I like the couple I have. Buy it, you will like it.

Trax currently have 1:43 1977 HZ Sandman Van in Valencia Orange with Blue/white stipe and writing on tail gate new for $39.95
no opening parts, wheels are chrome not GTS stanndard, does have spoler under front bumper.
I would say under $50 with no postage if fair if you are getting the modle and colour you are after.

I thought the trax would have been better mainly because they are more expensive mine are all carlectables back opens and closes had a tail gate fall off the hq though and can't find a hz

I'm more into collecting 1/8th scale models but do have the classic carlectables 1/43rd Absinth Yellow HX Sandman. Carlectables models are far better quality and better detailed.

Soon to be released by Biante in 1/18th are a Mandarin red HX Sandman van and a Jasmin Yellow HZ Sandman ute so a Carlectables version shouldn't be too far away either. Biante have picked up their act in the last year or so and I'll probably buy the van and ute when they are released.

Some of my model collection.
