For me the disappointment is trying to find the Volvo 240, Moving parts Mustang Boss 302 and the Freightliner cab over in the Montreal area. My personal favorite was the AMC Eagle wagon.
The Karma GS-6 is actually a hybrid, like yeah the gas engine is used as a range extender and doesn't run the wheels but it's still under the hood so it's still a hybrid
The Best new models for me are the RX-8, the Eagle, and the Autozam - the RX-8 looks dang fine, the Eagle was executed perfectly (as far as I can tell), and the Autozam has the headlights as part of the window piece (love it when they do that) AND, being a '90s kid, takes me right back to that era of automotive design - I *might* have even seen one on a poster at some point in my early childhood, though I'm honestly not sure ;-) My one pick for Most Disappointing HAS to be the Freightliner, and here's why: where's the trailer?!? I love those old cabovers, I love the tooling, and I love the color and the graphics, but without a trailer, it's worthless to me. This is one thing that I think that Matchbox needs to STOP doing, is releasing all of these tractor cabs as permanent "bobtails", because A. bobtailing is SO last century and B. where's the fun in having a truck with no trailer, anyway?
@brandongaines1731 They are gonna put a trailer with it, In the Convoy line some day. Don’t be so don’t be mad about it not having a trailer when if you want a trailer, go buy a matchbox convoy a put a trailer on it and then wait til matchbox does an official release with it in plastic tires and a trailer. damn
I don’t care if the Polaris ranger and monarch tractor are not in the vote those two are my favourite 2023 new casting so I’m voting for them anyway and that’s final
The Classic Porsche & Jaguar models look amazing! I actually dig the colour scheme however I aint digging that off centre Mercedes hood badge on the SL 🤦🏼♂️
Already voted. Sentra, RX-8, XC40 for best cars. The Sentra & Volvo are such plain regular cars and were executed perfectly and with very good proportions. RX8 just looks damn good. Most disappointing for me is the Autozam. The AZ1 is a tiny TINY car in real life and I was so excited to see it in the lineup. But probably for safety reasons, it came out a huge casting and I wish they could've captured some of that smallness in close to 1/64 scale IMO the Twizy is too obscure (like the Ami) and shouldn't have been included as well
The most disappointing thing about the new m/b are the fact that we cannot get the later issues up here in the northeast. I saw 2024 's in the store last week
- The AZ-1 is a kei car. 660cc, mid engined tiny sportscar, very small irl (scale in Matchbox a bit weird) - The Twizy is indeed an EV, but two-seater in a row. Has nearly no competition until the new Ami came Hope they make a civillian version of the Commodore. Cleaned with no livery in green, orange, or dark blue and it'd be 🔥Even better if they make a HSV GTSR W1 version
Hard to be disappointed by any Matchbox models. Their execution is normally spot-on, even if the car is bland or maybe not for me. The Autozam wins for me-the car IRL is so fun and interesting, and Matchbox hit the model out of the park. Not that I was looking forward to the Gemera, but that’s the only model that looks “off” to me. It’ll get my most disappointing vote for sure.
I didn't buy too many MBs this year, but i do try to get all those classic coups. The only modern car I bought this year of new models was that blue Karma GS6. Loved its silhouette. Hope Hot Wheels mainline gets one soon. Hey I just picked up that Morris Minor Saloon. Huge candidate for my 2023 MB fav. Another silhouette to die for. I was probably most disappointed with the Auburn Speedster. I love all those older coups but they foiled this one hard. Looks toyish and plastic. The old Hot Wheels version looked like a classic car. New MB version? No classic vibe whatsoever.
Does anyone know why the Tesla Model S has an ugly bump on the trunk? XC-40 is the best imho, worst is 911RSR bc of that ugly tampo work And what about the Sprinter & Model 3? Are those not new or for 2024?
Koenigsegg is the most disappointing for me, by far. Looks atrocious compared to Hotwheels' casting. Ride height is too high, casting is too skinny and too tall. Was super thrilled to be getting it from Matchbox but ultimately did not end up picking one up after seeing it in-person.
To the people who got the Honda up to almost 5% on the votes, you guys are delusional. I love how diecast collectors don’t even attempt to know anything about racing heritage.
I’m biased, but the AMC Eagle is grossly underrated. I hope they make more of them
It’s so cute that he thinks people actually pick the most “disappointing “ and not just something they don’t like
My favs are the Volvo XC40, 240 and the Porsche Macan Super Chase. Got those and the details are so accurate. Wonderful pieces.
Jaaaaag for me. Awesome little casting and I'm really glad I was able to find it in the wild.

MB does Bentley very well. Bring out a few Rolls-Royce models, Phantom, etc.

Some of these were hard to find this year in the Pittsburgh area. Finally showing up now.
It was a fantastic year for matchbox

The best, IDK, the worst IDK, haven’t found recent matchbox in a minute
The Classic Porsche & Jaguar models look amazing! I actually dig the colour scheme however I aint digging that off centre Mercedes hood badge on the SL 🤦🏼♂️
What happened to the 57 Ford Custom 300? That was a new model for 2023 - never mentioned?
Already voted.

The Twizy does appear to be scewing the results in the Most Disappointing department....
I think porsche 910, gray jaguar, amc eagle, volvo 240 and mazda rx-8 are the best new models of the year.
I want all those matchbox!!!

Awesome diecast 👍👍👍👍
13:42 I like this one
- The AZ-1 is a kei car. 660cc, mid engined tiny sportscar, very small irl (scale in Matchbox a bit weird)
- The Twizy is indeed an EV, but two-seater in a row. Has nearly no competition until the new Ami came
Hope they make a civillian version of the Commodore. Cleaned with no livery in green, orange, or dark blue and it'd be 🔥Even better if they make a HSV GTSR W1 version
For Renault, wasn't there a version with 2 seats (1 in front & 1 in back)?
@@AzVfL oh wait, shit, the Twizy is actually two seater all along, I forgot. Thanks for the reminder sort of
Nissan Sentra and 4Runner for me..!! And that Tesla..!
Is there going to be a Lamley Award for Tarmac? When?
I need that AMC
Can someone explain the point of the white glove?

Why is the small Mercedes star not centered 🥵 21:16

My vote goes for Porsche 911 RSR 🤩
Going to be a hard choice for me.
The Jeep Avenger is a European-only electric crossover.
Very cool video lamley group
Like I said, that Freightliner never made it to our area.
Where is Lexus Ls400
When are you doing a poll on Hot Wheels Premium new castings?
I think those are unique matchbox cars some ive seen some a havent
AZ-1 kei car connection with Suzuki
Does anyone know why the Tesla Model S has an ugly bump on the trunk?

Mind me asking is it wide in real life?
@@totally_not_lorenzo kinda
if they twizy didn’t exist I’d agree that’s the worst but the renault is the worst looking thing by far
The matchbox Koenigsegg is smaller than the Hotwheels one. Hotwheels Koeinigsegg Sucks😂 Lol
@@IdontKnow-jt2ozCan ask in what sense is it worst looking. It’s definitely an ugly car but is it not a well executed replica of the real thing?
Porsche 911 RSR Best car.
Toyota 4runner rulz 😊😊😊
Not all of them are basic cars are $1.18 plus tax ones.
Im glad that the scewers arent in the vote even is the tractor is cool

Lamley. Awards. What. Was. The. Best. and. Most. Disappointing
Disappointed about the blue Volvo paint.
