Matchbox 1/72 tanks at djtoys.com

Post by Philip » Sun Apr 10, 2005 8:37 pm

DJ Toys has several of the Matchbox tanks that were first released after Matchbox bought the tank molds from CDC. They are listed as selling for $29.95. The following are at their website:

1. DYM37579 - Sherman M4A3 76MM
2. DYM37581 - Panther Ausf A
3. DYM37582 - Wirbelwind Flak PZ IV
4. DYM37583 - Russian T - 34/76
5. DYM37584 - Churchill MK IV
6. DYM37585 - Sherman M4A3 105MM

I have e-mailed DJ Toys to make sure that they have these in stock. If you collect 1/72 armour, these are a very nice addition to your collection. Even at $29.95, it would be nice to have these. They are difficult to find. They do not come in a display case, but are still worth it.

Great find, Philip, thanks for posting it here. For anyone unfamiliar with these, they are superb. True diecast. I think they even come with a Limited edition certificate. I'll have to go pull mine out again.

I have e-mailed these guys 3 times and have yet to hear from them. It has been suggested that they might be out of business. Anyone know?
