Mazda5 DIECAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Benfolio]

I know they exist, I've seen them on eBay from time to time, but is there any other way to find them? I'm talking the new 1:18 scale ones with the super-high detail, as you can see in the pics attached. Any idea who makes them? An online store to buy them? I e-mailed the guy that had the last couple on eBay and he never responded, can't remember his/her name. Would have bought the black one he had for sale, but I was trying to find one in Carbon Gray.

That is SO freekin sweet!

Freaking awesome, what a detail! (spin)

Sorry, no answers on my side :(

That reminded me. Volvo in Germany (?) mails you a die-cast model of the car you buy with them, just some weeks after your purchase is delivered at the stealership (new cars only, of course). I think that it is an inexpensive but really cool customer retention idea...

Oh well, if you find them let us know...

is that a 7th person seat I spot in the photos??

[5phreak]

[mazdadude]

I had to look at some of those photos twice to make sure it was a model and not the real thing (omg) ....If anyone identifies a supplier pls let me know.

[meackerman]

[raspykart]

looks like a Euro version, with the rails, 7th seat, and backup sensors... hrm.

i believe they made the diecast based on Taiwan, Hong Kong version

[Benfolio]

Manufacturer is Mondsee. Very detailed and worth the $80 I think.
Even comes in a box with the Mazda5 logo embossed on the lid. It is a officially licensed product of Mazda's, but made in Taiwan and apparantly only sold there. There's a black one on eBay right now, $80 plus another $30 to ship to the US. Yikes.

Too bad none are made in Carbon Gray.


Yet.

[paging_drburgos]

nah, i thought it was cool for $20. A hotwheels version would have been sufficient. I can buy 3 or 4 HDDVD's for $80. I mean why do i need to be able to open the doors and sunroof when i have the real thing? :P
