#560 Scalextric Rallyes De España 1967-1998 (Part 1)

This was i of the Scalextric collections released yesteryear Altaya. To endure exact, this was the sixth collection released, starting inwards 2005 but finishing inwards 2006. I remind y'all that Altaya is a publishing household from Kingdom of Spain generally known for selling their collections inwards weekly fascicles available at press kiosk. After a few dozens of fascicles y'all get got your consummate mass addition something else. In this case, it was famous Scalextric cars from Castilian rallyes.

I volition demo all the cars inwards the side yesteryear side ii entries, today I desire to focus on the books. They are ii bluish folders amongst some index tabs. Each fascicle included i page to endure separated in addition to placed inwards the correct chapter, for example:

“Coches de Colección”: Showed many variants of i Scalextric model
“Coches de Competición”: Told the storey of a existent car
“Avences Técnicos”: Told the storey of some excogitation or exploit inwards the motor world
“Trucos”: Showed how to construct y'all Scalextric models (they were sold inwards unassembled parts) in addition to how to customize them for competition.
“Historia de la Competición”: Nice reviews of competitions from the final decades.

The books are great, but equally said before, the master copy declaration for selling this mass was to collect 12 reedited automobile models from the 60s, 70s in addition to 80s, in addition to if y'all subscribed, y'all would too instruct a overnice lead maintain to comport them. Many of these cars were sought-for collectibles, could solely endure flora for perhaps hundred Euros. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few of them had already been re-released equally “Vintage” models, in addition to now, they could endure bought for to a greater extent than or less xl Euros each… Each automobile came inwards iv parts: body, chassis, wheels in addition to motor, in addition to each fascicle costed vi Euros, if I am non wrong, or a niggling less if y'all subscribed or if y'all were a fellow member of the Scalextric Club.

Together amongst the trunk of the automobile (first part) y'all got a carte du jour amongst a printed issue of it that was a proof or the issue of your model inside the express edition. The occupation amongst the express edition is that nobody told me how many units of each automobile were made... I estimate many, since collectors bought many “bodies” to restore sometime damaged cars.

I withal get got some advertising that was included amongst the outset upshot where every item of the collection is explained. It is rattling interesting that all models are actual models except the Mercedes Wankel in addition to the Mercedes 250 SL, which are sometime models taken for the photoshoot only. Final versions would get got some other colour in addition to dissimilar decals.

The collection is great, in addition to the choice of models is too perfect, but the Castilian die-hard collector would get got preferred to get got a Seat 600 in addition to a Seat 850 inwards it. These ii models would seem inwards afterwards collections from Scalextric in addition to Altaya… or Scalextric in addition to Planeta.
