#637 Mira – Autorremolque Rulot, Hípica As Well As Moto-Cross (Around 1992)

I convey commented this several times already, simply hither it goes again. By the commencement of the 90s, the Castilian marketplace was already opened upward to unusual toys as well as the initiative off products from China were already beingness sold inward stores. At first, they had real bad quality, simply afterwards they started improving. These were extremely cheap, for example, 1 MC Toy motorcar costed 100 pesetas (0.60 Eur).

The die-cast market, dominated yesteryear local brands addition Matchbox as well as Majorette had to react against those inexpensive products, as well as piece Matchbox launched the Super G.T. (this was before the 90s, since to other countries the Chinese concurrents arrived earlier), Guisval the “Club” series, as well as Mira simplified its cars therefore much, that they were as well as therefore fifty-fifty hard to recognise.

The final Mira serial comprised a few motorcar models, real simplified inward its design, withouth interiors. The cars had a metallic element body, dark chassis, nighttime windows as well as the wheels amongst the axles attached to the chassis. Each motorcar was applied roughly stickers amongst the cite of the car, inward illustration yous were non able to recognise it at initiative off sight. These are inward my opinion, roughly of the worst die-cast made inward Kingdom of Spain always (together amongst the Gisima models I already presented).

In society to cut down stocks when the companionship was already losing marketplace portion as well as making fewer as well as fewer business, they re-released the “Autorremolques” series. This serial was originally released inward the 70s, as well as consisted of larger boxes that included 1 model as well as 1 trailer. The trailers are copies of Matchbox, Corgi or Majorette, equally roughly models at that fourth dimension were.

The master copy serial included normal street cars, similar Renaults, Seats, Fords, Fiats as well as 1 of 5 available trailers. Some cars had stickers related to the tráiler they were carrying, therefore at that topographic point was roughly logic that matched the motorcar to the tráiler:

Hipica – Based on Matchbox’s Horse Trailer
Moto-Cross – Based on Matchbox’s Honda Motorcycle as well as Trailer
Rulot – Based on Corgi Juniors’ Caravan
Fuera-Borda – Based on Majorette’s
Regata – Based on Majorette’s

In this afterward release, the cars were to a greater extent than modern, cars that were amidst the best selling cars of their time. Most accurately, these models were:

Seat Ibiza
Ford Sierra
Renault 11
Peugeot 205
Nissan Patrol

About the trailers, I convey entirely look packages including 1 of the iii initiative off from the listing above (no boats). Needless to say, that cars as well as trailers were mixed randomly inward this afterward series:

Hipica – Based on Matchbox’s Horse Trailer
Moto-Cross – Based on Matchbox’s Honda Motorcycle as well as Trailer
Rulot – Based on Corgi Juniors’ Caravan

And I said they are likely leftovers, because, equally yous tin come across inward the pictures, the wheels of the trailers are all the same the ones used during the 80s. If these had been produced at the same fourth dimension that the cars, likely they would convey the same type of inexpensive Wheel (1 business office instead of hubcap as well as tyre).
