#670 Metalbox - Datsun 126X (Around 1976)

MONTH OF THE BOOTLEG AND THE KNOCK-OFF AT TOYS FROM THE PAST!

This machine is quite a mistery. I constitute it inwards a flea marketplace too bought it inwards a lot together amongst really erstwhile cars, almost of them were from the 70s.

The machine represents the Datsun 126x, which became pop inwards the 70s too was reproduced yesteryear Matchbox (in 1973) or other toy companies, similar Payá.

Compared to the Matchbox model, this model is slightly smaller: according to the inscription on the base, it is made inwards 1:70 scale. Both bring a practicable bonnet (rear part).

The consummate inscription on the base of operations is:
DATSUN 126x
280 Km/h
MODELL 1:70

But at that spot are no indications of province of rootage or manufacturer. I bring constitute pictures of this machine on the internet, too I bring observed, that at that spot are at to the lowest degree 2 types of wheels. This ane is the almost elaborated one, since it has grayness hubcaps. The simpler type is completely black.
Also interesting are the stickers used amongst the car, that resemble a piffling flake the German linguistic communication flag.

I would tell this toy was made inwards Hong-Kong. At the time, these form of toys were made too bootlegged there. The fact that on the base of operations says "Modell" too non "model", too the speed is given inwards Km/h, made me idea that it was intended for the German linguistic communication marketplace (or that peradventure it was an guild from a German linguistic communication toy manufacturer for the German linguistic communication market). However, I bring seen this same machine for sale inwards South America, North America too other European countries, too therefore I guess, it is impossible to know today the exact rootage of this model.

If you lot bring whatever information, delight piece of job out a comment. Thanks!

My friend Steve sent me an e-mail telling me this is an hungarian model made yesteryear Metalbox. I'll drive to update this entry shortly amongst novel information.
