The Costco Exclusives

These, as far as i'm aware of, are only avaliable at Costcos. Bought one every year for the past three. They come around October and into christmas time and then they're gone. The '71 Datsun was my first one, then the Charger, and just two months ago, the GTO. They're pretty darn detailed for a Maisto brand, having opening hood, doors, trunk, working steering, and shocks; yes, little springs above all four wheels acting as real suspension. Detail is pretty outstanding, too. Though the cheapness of the brand is evident in certain areas.

I have also bought them in the past. My favorite is the '65 GTO in dark Maroon with a Black vinyl roof. They are starting to get more expensive, and I no longer can justify the expense even though I like the subject. I'll stay with my 1/25th plastic kits for now. But for someone looking for a nice diecast in this scale they are a good deal.
