Subject:microbus matchbox 1:58 at Wallmart

Hi volks

While shopping at Wallmart for gifts for children this week-end, I
came upon a Matchbox microbus, scale 1:58. It's white with the sides
in blue.

For those interrested, it was in a Matchbox vertical packaging of 5
or 6 cars. There was the Mercedes Smart and Porsche Boxter in there,
don't remember the others.

I do appreciate the new microbus, but looking at it, I personally
think that the new microbus looks more like a Toyota Previa than the
classic vw split bus from the sixties. VW should work a little bit
more on it's nostagia...
