Toy Model Trials Bikes

Featured Replies

As popular as trials is, why doesn't a company make die cast or plastic models of popular and vintage trials bike?

I would buy them, would you?

Some people do make their own scale model trials bikes from scratch. There are some particularly well done Sherpa T models that have their photos on the web.

There were at least two brands of plastic scale model kits for the TY175 made in the 1970s and 1980s and some of those kits are still available new-in-box. I found one in a hobby shop in NSW, Austraila (by searching on eBay) to give out as a rider award a couple of years ago.

Dave, somebody posted a Bulto M10 model on ozVMX a while ago but I can't find it now, can you remember seeing it? The accuracy was uncanny and without any scale reference I thought it was the real thing.
