Supersize Me: Die-Cast Cars and Their Real Life Counterparts
I said it in a previous article: "A man's most expensive hobby begins with $0.97" ($0.88, if you can find them on sale). Car enthusiasts are typically kids at heart, and as such, we love our cars as if they're actually toys. So it'd only make sense to want a toy replica of our car/s, if it's available. In most cases there is never an exact replica, but wouldn't it be cool if there was? Until the day my friends and I can find them - or EightyOne81 can be convinced to produce 3D replicas - we're just going to have to do with these mini-me stunt doubles. Of course, creativity is big here, so if you can trick out a "base model" from a toy store (like some of my friends do), all the better!
