Postman On The Rails Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Interesting to see that out of top 10 for 2023, five are TT:120 models. Taking 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Spots 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas120 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I noticed the very same thing and it put me in mind of the comments Sam made recently. Time to think again Sam. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge1965 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Its weird how they don't do more in the 1:120 scale. Maybe still early days for them and the scale.. Who knows 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artyp Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I hope this result for Oxford Diecast will spur them, and others who maybe waiting to see how things go, to start producing more for our scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taunmarc88 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I can’t wait to get the mini and the London bus. The price is so good, I’m pleased they are doing well for Oxford. It seems TT is the future for a lot of companies, those who model in OO will already have the vehicles they need so a fresh range and scale is bound to continue to do well as long as we adopt it as modellers.That video of Sam’s is not ageing well at all… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a distinct lack of lorries that needs the Oxford Diecast touch. These are great models and I think good value, it’s no wonder they sell well 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need some for my industrial area to flourish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbo2 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Although not TT, it made me smile that the Austin Maestro was No.2 . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rallymatt Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I’m not surprised Austin Maestro was No2, in its day sold 1000s but no one models one… Montego must be next.. maybe even the estate 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John-L Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 It’s really interesting that the TT models all scored so highly, hopefully that success is mirrored in the sales figures too. We could definitely use more vehicles. The new Routemaster and Tractor look promising too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is that the manufacturers only tend to do Fords and VWs with only the very popular models of other makes produced. So when something comes out that did sell well and what people want it'll do well in it's first year, the Allegro and Princess both sold well in the past as well. I'm hoping for some more 70s and 80s non-Ford cars in due course, and a Rover 214/216 would be nice as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a bit out of place at a country station outside London? What I find impressive is that they're all a lot better compared to the slightly smaller N gauge models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
