The Fast and The Furious drifts into your collection

Anyone who has even a passing interest in cars or movies has most likely seen the Fast & the Furious movies. These films are full of high speed chases, daring stunts, and generally make the person watching want to drive incredibly irresponsibly on the way home.

We know you tried to peel out after the movie in the parking lot. We did too.

Obviously your normal person doesn't have the skills to parachute drop a car out of the sky and onto a highway or to perform flawless drifts in the middle of the city while being pursued by law enforcement. In fact, most of the things done in these movies are likely to get you arrested or injured. As a result, perhaps the best way to live "2 Fast and 2 Furious" is through these newly released 1/43 scale models from GreenLight.

Just Arrived: Chevorlet Corvettes from New-Ray

Ever since the Corvette was first released in the 1950's, they have been synonymous with cool. Only a handful of makes and models have stood the test of time like the Corvette, and anyone who has been lucky enough to see one perform- or to ride in one- understands exactly why.

My first experience with a Corvette was with that car-crazy uncle that everyone seems to have in their family. Years ago, he happened to own one and wanted to give my younger brother and me a ride in it. When he promised to be careful, my mother reluctantly agreed to allow us to go with him. She probably should have known better. When we turned the corner, my uncle floored it, and we were immediately going 60, 70, then 80 MPH in his small neighborhood. 

Was it dangerous? Probably. Was it exhilarating? Most definitely. 

These are the kinds of memories that New-Ray is hoping to evoke with their just-released 1/24 scale models.

#71983R

#71983Y

Whether you are getting this for the car enthusiast in your life or you are buying it because you cherish the memories of flying down the road, living in the tension between danger and exhilaration, this model is the one you are looking for. Visit 3000toys.com to get yours; and, while you are there, check out some of our other sports cars from GreenLight, M2Machines, and American Muscle.

Mattel Meets Marvel

#CFP58 - 1/64 Scale
Groot - Surfin' School Bus - Hot Wheels® Pop Culture  

Everyone loves a superhero. I think the reason for this is that, while their stories are far-fetched, they are also relatable. Take for example the nerdy kid who got bitten by a spider and developed the ability to shoot webs from his wrists. He was a normal kid; now he’s Spider-Man. There’s an element of “what if it happened to me?” in stories like these, and they challenge us to act justly in our everyday lives. Marvel has been bringing us these fantastic stories since 1939, and Mattel has been working hard to bring us Marvel-inspired models. Take a look at a few of our favorites.

#CFP60 - 1/64 Scale
Spider-Man - '64 Chevy Nova Delivery - Hot Wheels® Pop Culture

M2's Astounding Details Perfect for Chevy's 100th Birthday

I love beautiful things.  Who doesn't, right?  Ever since we started carrying M2Machines a few years back, they've been one of my favorite product lines.  

One of the first times that I actually got to handle an M2 car was at a trade show in Chicago three or so years ago, and I just couldn't stop marveling at the astounding details and quality, turning it over in my hands again and again. 

M2Machines is one of those manufacturers who stays on top of it, continuously coming out with new, interesting cars, both in 1/64 scale and 1/24 scale.  Recently, they've been working on several releases of Chevrolet Centennial cars, celebrating the 100th birthday of the beloved automobile brand.

As a part of that, they just announced the next release in their 1/24 Scale Series.

These are available for pre-order now, and we expect them to be here this month or next!

Celebrating 100 Years of Chevrolet

Chevrolet was founded in Detroit, in November 1911, by racer Louis Chevrolet and General Motors founder Williams C. "Billy" Durant, who developed cars that quickly earned reputations for performance, durability and value. Those traits remain at the core of Chevrolet, which is the world's fourth-largest automotive brand.

M2Machines has been chosen as the EXCLUSIVE die-cast manufacturer to design and create a Centennial Edition to commemorate the 100th birthday of this great American brand, and you better believe that 3000toys.com will be carrying every piece of this limited edition line.

Special Edition "100 Years of Chevrolet" - Six-Piece, High-Detail SET in factory-sealed case

From the very start, Chevrolet brought technology and features typically reserved for more expensive cars to its lineup of affordable cars and trucks. The first Chevrolet - the Series C Classic Six - offered an electric starter and electric headlamps at a time when both were rarities among even luxury cars. In the decades that followed, innovations such as safety glass, fuel injection, anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control systems were used on Chevrolet models at the same time as more expensive vehicles. As one of the largest - selling brands in the industry, Chevrolet's early adoption of landmark technologies fundamentally changed the way they were applied to new vehicles.

AUGUST - SEPTEMBER ARRIVAL

Auto-Haulers Release 2 - 100 Years of Chevrolet Special Centennial Edition - 3-piece set 

Chevrolet also made performance affordable. Its early four- and six- cylinder engines were known for durability and strong performance, but it was the 1955 introduction of Chevrolet's small-block V-8 that began a new era in attainable high-performance. The engine would power millions of cars and trucks in the next 50 years, with its legacy passed on to a new generation of small - block V-8s used in today's trucks and SUVs, as well as performance cars including the Camaro SS and Corvette.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 RS "Centennial Edition"

The performance characteristics of the small-block V-8 helped establish Chevrolet as a force in almost all forms of motorsports. Chevrolet-powered race cars were immediate contenders in the fledging stock car and drag racing worlds of the 1950s, growing to dominate them in the next decades. Chevrolet is top winning brand in NASCAR and has collected more NHRA Pro-Stock Manufacturers Cups than any other brand.
