Collectors can finish their diorama display with their favorite model car in 1:18 scale with the latest set of fantastic figurines from the imagination of Motorhead Miniatures. This is the couple you see every weekend showing off their car and mixing it up with freinds and fellow motorheads. The hand-painted, cold-cast resin figures include metal-framed chairs, a floor sign and, of course, the dog. The product is also available in 24-scale for model kits, die cast and garden railroads. "Motorhead Minitures is the market leader in limited-edition figurines to complete displays of die cast, model cars and garden railroads. The Car Show is just the latest in themed sets of figurines and accessories for the model or train enthusiast," Drew Heitner, president of Motorhead Miniatures LLC, told TDmonthly. Launch date: April 2009.

Munipals' first train and track set is a great starter set for any subway fan. The set comprises two 42 Street Shuttle cars and 19 track pieces, enough to build ovals, loops, and straight shuttle runs over 6' long. Being the only IRT shuttle in the system, the real 42 Street Shuttle carries nearly a quarter million people every week. It runs on tracks only 20' beneath the street, with each of the three shuttle trains making an average of 360 runs each day.
