Search for "Taurus" in "Toys & Hobbies" > "Model RR, Trains"

Bought the set of two for about $15. Came in a nifty little case, and they're AMAZING QUALITY.

They're N- scale (about an inch long), built by Atlas.

I'm in love <3 I'd been wanting a set of these for a long time but could never find my color.

They come in 1996 paint colors, but a similar color could easily pass for a 98/99 cause they used all-red taillight piece
and the front grille isn't detailed enough to be obviously a 96/7 vs. 98/9.

Not only that, but I'd usually seen them for around 10+ each. So $15 for 2 is a pretty good deal in comparison!

As of this post the following are listed on eBay from around 10-12 dollars plus shipping:
  • "Undecorated"/Primer
  • Rose Mist
  • Toreador Red
  • Light Saddle
  • Pacific Green
  • Medium Willow Green
  • Moonlight Blue
  • Vibrant White
  • Midnight Red
  • Iris Frost
  • Charcoal Grey
  • and "Ebony" which looks to be non-metallic black.

Oddly enough, the only 1996 color missing is Silver Frost... Hmmmm?

The ones I bought were from user: plasticmodelkits


I also added a pic of the car on a holographic Poliwrath card for a size reference. If you don't know how big a Pokemon card is, then... well, then you simply aren't cool enough to be allowed to know how big this car is.

almost forgot to add the "Devin Pitcher Disclaimer"....

These exist because Gen 3's are the best. Pretty sure that these prove that and annihilate any doubt that they aren't the best.

Case. Closed. The. End. K. Thx. Bai.
