An Unexpected Gift - A Set of the 2009 Shell V-Power Ferraris

Got an early Christmas present today in the form of a collection of miniature Ferraris. Certainly cheaper to maintain and easier to store than the real thing, these were marketed by Shell in many parts of the world back in 2009. They have engine revving sounds and push back action. My favorites is definitively the 250 GTO and the F40 My set comes from Puerto Rico where they were offered by local Shell retailers. They are not as detailed as some of the die cast I brought back from Europe but are still pretty decent and not a bad addition the collection hanging around my office. You can learn more about these from real collectors...
