If only more original Hot Wheels models could have realistic plain looking colours like this. Fortunately LR of China are happy to oblige with their range of cheeky Hot Wheels copies including this Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Nicely proportioned, well detailed and finished this is on par quality wise to the HW original and probably explains why as far as i'm aware these aren't available for sale outside of China. Mint and boxed.

Well for me at least this chroma flair style paint finish is certainly a first for my collection! Made by a Chinese toy company who use the LR logo it is part of their pretty vast range of mainly Hot Wheels copies which are usually actually decent in quality and finish. For an unlicensed casting this is an impressive looking Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 which even sports the five spoke wheels used by HW though LR go a lot further by offering much more blingtastic paint colours such as this and other chrome based finishes. Part of their Speed Racing GT series and bought directly from China where they are safely shielded from Mattel lawyers! ;-p
Mint and boxed.

If you are going to make a range of diecasts which directly copy that of Hot Wheels it pays to make it a big range and one that uses some of their better more modern castings. Made in China by a company called LR it is admittedly a very good quality copy of the HW Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 and has a very impressive level of quality which you may not perhaps associate with a cheap copy. Detail and finish are top notch and is as every bit as good as the original. Part of their Speed & Furious range. Mint and boxed.

Apart from its strange lack of front headlamps which certainly wouldn't fool any BMW licensors this is actually a decent little model of a BMW MINI Cooper in van guise which is unusual in itself. The five spoke wheel design and the colour scheme all hint at Hot Wheels though I strongly suspect this isn't a copy of any of their castings. The colour and licensed logos are of course a blatant copy of the HW Morris Mini which appeared a few years ago and probably suit this more modern looking vehicle than the original. Well finished and just as well made as an equivalent HW it shows not all cheapo Chinese diecasts are poor quality tat. Part of LR'S amusingly title Speed & Furious series which I bought directly from China. Mint and boxed.

The weird and wonderful range of LR diecasts is a mixture of original designs and blatant copies, usually of recent Hot Wheels castings. I'm not entirely sure if this is a copy of a Tomica but either way its a decent looking cheapo Chinese model of the mighty Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG complete with accurate shape, painted lights and a modern matte black finish. In keeping with this toy companies blatant disregard for copyright this model is part of their "Avemger 2" range which basically copies the artwork for the Avengers films franchise apart from the deliberate spelling mistake and unbelievably also incorporates a picture of all the real Hollywood characters such as Robert Downey Jr, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson etc...!
Mint and boxed.
