The Chinese bazaars of Sitges have seen very slim pickings on many of my recent visits. Still plenty of 1/43 scale or bigger diecasts can be found but the amount of 1/64 assortment grows ever smaller, Europeans on the whole obviously prefer to collect larger sizes! My favourite bazaar did yield a few Mondo Motors branded items on my April visit, this being one of the nicest. In a cheapo kind of way of course! ;-p
Made by Donbful, a Chinese company known more for its diecast trucks and farm related vehicles.
Its styling seems so familiar yet i'm still struggling to identify whether its based on a real truck, maybe Hino? Its styling definitely doesn't belong in the modern era with its very square cut chiselled edges and small round headlamps and its for that reason why I do particularly like it.
Obviously designed to be a budget diecast with its so-so quality but overall rather charming.
Mint and boxed.
