Ambassador Update 02 September 2015
Hello Matchbox friends,
Summer time is vintage car time...at least for me...several smaller and bigger meetings, rallys and lots of fun.
Beginning in August, I went to a small place near the river Rhein called Hitdorf and did that with a very special car – see pic below.
Sorry – pic is from a local newspaper so you normally do get a better quality from me! You know that Matchbox sold a model of that vehicle only some years ago?
(Check: http://www.mbxforum.com/11-Catalogs/00-Software/jnmb75nds.php?uSeries=ClassicEuropean Economy Cars&uCatalog=3002)
With the special protection the trips to follow will surely be safe!
Having fun with our Messerschmitt KR200 Convertible – my Mom and me!
But know show you some new stuff coming:

New models from the 1-120 series:
New color for the very sought after Tesla:

And a new layout for the police Dodge Charger:
Even better from this angle?
All these pics will surely also turn up on Johns and David's Lamley Group (http://lamleydlm.blogspot.de/). My friend John Nijhuis has devoted an extra page for my updates and report – check: http://www.mbxforum.com/01-News/900-Ambassador/jnambassador11.php
Rather sad news is that the supreme heroes series has been canceled. Only wave A with four models was produced and the other models shown from coming waves were just samples and not produced. But don’t be too sad – the best of world series is coming and surely fill the gap – check pics of three more models coming:
Lets start with the bike – surely special even in this very special set:

Printing on the seat proves that it is still before production and the pic came in really hot from the design team at the ToyBox at Mattel. I include big pics so you don’t miss a detail...
And it surely would be wrong to miss a detail on this Land Rover with emergency layout!

One more pic to enjoy!
Also we need a Cadillac – check out this beauty:
But we are not finished yet – highlight surely is Michaels 5.000 design – the bus:
And the other chocolate side...
But also the front view is nice and shouldn’t be missed:
Last time I did ask you about new Matchbox Originals to do and I still keep that question alive. I do get several ideas of licensed vehicles to be produced and surely everybody can name on the point 5- 10 castings never done before and surely worth doing. But I think these ideas will help the design team even more!

Because it bends in the middle to turn quicker:
Sometimes you find funny things on the way/road. This time a plane pulling kind of car...
If you know the wheels – yes – it is a duck (Citroen 2CV). At least the most useful and needed parts of it and surely it pulls a plane – prove picture!
I did take the picture on my rallye last weekend – the rallye was called “GoldRace” and took us from Jülich near Aachen (Aken) into the Netherlands and back home. Good weather and lots of fun:
Every team do get a Matchbox model Duesenberg with their own race number on it – so ours was number 2...
From time to time I play with the little explore the world model ;) You surely can guess its purpose?!
