Yat Ming 1/24 scale Vibe GT w/trailer

Post by Jethro »

Stopped @ Walgreens today looking to see if they had any of the new Matchbox Vibe. None found. But as I turned around in the aisle expecting to leave empty handed I found a new release from Yat Ming - the Vibe GT w/ a hitch mounted to it pulling a trailer with a Polaris 700 MRK snow mobile! They had a couple of different versions. The Vibe was in Lava, Abyss, and Satellite; pulling a trailer with a snow mobile, motorcycle, or jet ski. My guess is the Vibe is also available in Neptune and Frosty since these appear to be the same Yat Ming models several of us (myself included) have already purchased.The real kicker is they are only $9.99!!

Interesting how it doesn't have the center bars on the roof rack either...Dangit why won't they come out with a die-cast in the 2-tone, or not in a GT?

As for "not in a GT" just remove the decal - only other indication it's a GT is the shifter handle. Heck, even the floor only has a gas and brake pedal - no clutch pedal!

Picked mine up tonight at Walgreens. Had a choice of a silver Vibe with a Sno-Mobile on the trailer or a Red one with a dirt bike on the trailer. Since my son wants a dirtbike bad I got the red one. No Neptune darn it!

i don't think you can lower it . But i did just buy another cast vibe. it is larger at 1:18 scale. i did see it on another post here. i will post some pics when i get my camera back(wife has it visiting my daughter in San Diego). but anyway it is lowered and looks sweet. a copy of a GTR Vibe done in canary yellow. i purchased it at a local Big Lots for only $9.99. and the detail is much better than these 1:24 scale models...
