Super Cool Show Chris 👍 I collect some M2 and about half of them have issues, that Cougar really looks incredible, but my favorite is the Regal, I am a Buick man, and i really like that color and that casting,so of course i would pick that one 👌 very very nice. Thanks for posting 💯👍😎
@cradiecast8407 10 күн бұрын
I agree, that Buick is an awesome looking model, luckily no issues with that one. M2 should just make diecasts without opening parts as they can never get it quite right. Thanks for watching. ps. I no longer will be posting any further videos as the amount of views they get, it is just not worth my time and effort to post anything anymore unfortunately. Thanks again for watching.

I have alot of M2 pieces in my collection . The quality has definetly got alot better in past couple years . The auto drivers line is the best and cheaper. My problem with them like hot wheels is availibility. can never find these walmart exclusives that I want and they go for crazy money on ebay . I have already stopped buying hot wheels for this reason m2 may be next. great video bud

Thanks for your thoughts, Chris. I did go back to the hobby shop where I get them and found a few on the pegs in boxes with bent wheels, so I never got any more. If I buy any more in the future I will have to inspect them closely before purchase. Hope all if great with you. Thanks for watching.

Hey Michael. I do have quite a few of these M2's and generally, they do a decent job. Just every now and then I may get a couple with issues. A bit like Greenlight, they also have some issues which never get fixed. Hope you are well and thanks for watching. Cheers.

M2 makes cool castings but letting stuff like the Mustang slip through the cracks is terrible! I collect the brand only if I find the best examples. From what I’ve seen in stores there’s a lot of poor quality. The Cougar is very nice although the tail light tampo is on the bumper too, if I’m seeing that right? I’ve been told I’m too picky. Even the best examples can have problems after you take ’em out of the package, like a bent wheel which is annoying. Since each release is made in limited numbers such as 9600 world wide, even the bad ones gotta go.🤔 For what you’re paying I’d be more picky!! Have a great weekend!✌🏻🇨🇦

I can't really comment on the quality issues of GL or M2; I've never bought any, but like Bigkeg, I've heard a few collectors on KZbin complain about them. I dont see how that Mustang could have possibly passed quality control ! The other 2 look great, especially the Buick Regal. 👨🚒👍🇦🇺🍻
@cradiecast8407 28 күн бұрын
Yeah, That Buick is a real looker. A shame about the Mustang as it is one of my favorites. Just very slack quality control on behalf of M2. Just put it in a box and send it off!! No one will notice - lol

Awesome Review Video Chris 👍 Excellent show 👌This Holden Monaro HQ GTS, is definitely my favorite out of these so far, absolutely stunning car😍 What an incredibly detailed model, and the Magazine looks super cool with all the historical data and pictures. When I think about Australian Horn cars , this is usually the car that comes to mind, love the paint scheme on this, very similar to the Chevy SS Chevelle of that era, even with Magnum 500 mags too. Very , very cool car 💯😎Thanks for posting 😀
@cradiecast8407 29 күн бұрын
This generation of the Monaro is my favorite model. Love the curvey looks and that big rear glass area. Must have pretty hot in the back seat though - lol and for only $25 it is a bargain. Thanks for the compliment on the video, really appreciated.

I have been able to grab only a few of the range at the newsagent,great quality for the price.Have 2x HK Monaro,2x Charger,Cobra and EH.Displaying loose on the shelf one each of the 2 models i got an extra of.Will not be chasing the missing releases or Oz Wheels models through scalpers.
@cradiecast8407 29 күн бұрын
I think that $25 is a great price for these. I have others from other brands that cost near $90-$100 AUD. The only one I bought 2 of was the HK Monaro in Red. The Charger is a hard one to get and so is the Green Panel Van and of course this HQ Monaro. I would only buy from a scalper IF i really wanted that particular model. I still wouldn't mind a few more OZ Wheels if I can beat the scalpers to them. Thanks for watching, much appreciated. Cheers, Chris
