1/64th Case
« on: May 22, 2019, 10:58:12 pm »
My youngest has shown a strong interest in hot wheels and toy trucks/tractors. When he's by himself they are all perfectly lined up... when his brother's around, that's a whole different story  :D

I have seen these for years on ebay in my "steam engine" searches and probably could ave found an even better deal, but I figured I better get him set on the right track sooner rather than later  ;)

Prices vary quite a bit on these, boxed ones in the $75 range, so I was very happy when my $10 offer was accepted, especially with the bonus separator thrown in.

Here she is, dust and all, his first Case steam engine. Maybe some day he'll by a 1/4 or 1/2 scale for me to play with  ;)
