1:18 scale model TT

[Michael L. Riebs]

What scale are the small Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars? I know they're much
bigger than 1:87 (HO), but I don't know the actual scale.

Anyway, I bought one (TT Coupe) for my son in the Matchbox series. It's not
silver - it's blue - but it does not have the spoiler.

The matching TT convertible (also blue) DOES have the spoiler. Andrew (age
3) has both! A real car nut, that one! Every time we go to the hobby store
for parts for the older one's R/C, Andrew goes to the matchbox section, and
brings back some car he MUST have, and NAMES IT BY MAKE! (3!) The last one
he brought was " I want this Mercedes Convertible!". And of course he
absolutely MUST join me and Alex (age 9½) every weekend at the R/C race
track.

Expect to see Andrew on the list someday in the very distant future.
