Maisto G Ridez

« on: March 25, 2006, 12:15:27 PM »
Keep an eye out for several "pimp my ride" style VWs showing up in the Maisto G Ridez series.  In 1/64th scale they have several variations of a chopped top Oval Window Bug and a lowered Notchback.  They also have a 1:25th scale 21 Window Deluxe Ragtop Bus in several different color combinations.  There may be others out there, but these are the ones I've seen.  I ran across 4 of the Notchbacks at a Walgreens and 3 of the Buses at Wal-Mart.  I've heard that K-Mart may also have them.

:-k  You know, I guess you could . . . but you would have to take them out of the package first, and I ain't found THAT many of them . . . yet.   :lol:

Unpimp the auto? In that scale would that require a sling shot or a cinderblock?

Got a copper colored chopped Beetle and a PINK Notchback at the Wal Mart in Tifton, GA last week.  Didn't see any buses, though. :(

:?: Is the "Copper" beetle the one with the gull doors on it?? I saw one like it on E-Bay for $10.99 plus $10.00 shipping. If it is the same one I will try to find it locally and save the shipping....

No, it is just the Maisto Chopped Top Beetle, no Gull doors on it.
