The recent classified for a TFA 914 pillow kit from the '70's got me thinking - "who else has one of these and are there other 914 related toys out there?"

So, in the interest of wasting even more of our valuable internet storage space on yet another thread....

Here's my TFA blue 914 my then girlfriend (now wife of 30+ years) made me in 1977. it survived my two sons with only a bit of fading and one small stain!





What you you have?

These are kind of cool, a set of Kyosho 1:72 mini 914's with good detailing.

Mine was/is not for sale but there are probably others as the guy that makes them is in the Phoenix are I think and still doing it? He had a red one and a yellow one when I bought mine if I remember correctly.

Here's one that I got as a gift last year from my girlfriend. It's an Advent (division of Revell) model. Someone had already assembled it in the past, but it's really awesome nonetheless. Details are nice, 1/25 scale, and the top comes off and stores in the trunk!

Inspiration for my 73 914-2.0 / "914-S" Resto ....... and to help with my "I really do like white 914s" 12 step program!


.... it's the AutoArt 1:18 1970 914-6 diecast added last year.

Yes, it's a candle mold

This is a Siku I found at an antique store when I was 11 in a display case. The store owner said it wasn't for sale. 13 years later, I went back to his store and talked him into selling it.

This old model I have from Bandai never has been built.

That blue rusted teener with the for sale sign is my vote for the best #1 toy.

Been looking a long time for a nice light ivory toy. Didn't want to put out the $250 for the AutoArt model. Scored this Marklin from Lithuania for $25 including shipping. Going to restore it and change the color to light ivory. There is rust in the hell hole.

You can enlarge this a bit if you want. Print it on photo paper (for strength) cut, fold, insert tab A into slot B etc. You might even be able to change the color.

Finished the restoration and color change of the orange Marklin from a few posts ago. The cool thing about this little diecast is it has a little metal pull at the back of the car that pops the headlights up. I even added blue California plates.

Sorry about focus.
