Wow...well once again you just blew me away. The Limos are wild. I loved the suspension on these. Some Matchbox had it to. They were fun as a kid with little ramps. The bounce, who would land and win the jump races. So many memories. Unfortunately I dont have my youth collection. I do have a couple older Majorette cars with the fat tires. One is a white mobile racer. I also got a jeep 4x4 in a lot I bought off eBay. It was the only Majorette in it. But I was happy to get it. Those police cars with the working lights....also amazing. The ambulance NY city is so wicked. If there is a die cast Hall of Fame....YOU ARE A FIRST BALLOT ENTRY. 👍👍👍👍
Awesome video bro! I'm your American friend from Maine! I laughed my ass off when you through that limousine on your diorama! The door flew off! Hahahahaha! I like the way you say:"out" too! Keep the awesome videos coming!
Never seizes to amaze me with this massive collection you have, thank you for always sharing your diecast museum with us O-Dawg I for sure appreciate all the videos you put and look forward for more to come keep up the awesome work.
I was HOPING you'd do a Majorette video. THANK YOU. I live in Wisconsin and the only retailer that had Majorette was our Toys R Us. I was so happy we finally got them. Our Wal-Mart's never sold Majorette. Unless I missed out. Maybe after TRU closed. Either way this is why I love this channel. Awesome cars and a TON OF INFORMATION. I appreciate your knowledge of die cast cars and the creator's of them. I never knew all that about Majorette. Probably due to out of sight out of mind. Once I got heavier into die cast I started looking into all manufacturers. Add to it your video's, and a few others I got a good idea there was a LOT more out there. Companies that failed and closed. But still had great cars. So please keep up the great work. Your far beyond just entertaining. You provide a lot of information. THANK YOU.
Majorettes and Matchbox cars were my childhood, Hot Wheels came much later when i started to collect diecast cars again. This is a great collection. Sadly, i only kept a handful of my played cars, the rest are lost in time or given away. Thanks for this video!
Big thumbs up! I used to have so many of them. Good to see them again. I used to have a white Toyota 4x4 with arrows on the hood, going to have to find that one again.
I had a couple of Majorette cars of the "Matchbox" scale as a child (still have them) and recall the brand with fondness. I honestly wasn't aware until now of the broad range of scales produced by Majorette so thanks for the enlightenment. It seems they have had a bit of misfortune over the years (such as the factory rebuild and the TRU fiasco you mentioned), despite them producing great models. Here in NZ we still have some of the more recent models available at a couple of stores, but they don't seem to be getting actively restocked. Majorette's RACING CARS line over the past couple of years is my favourite - the WRC cars are especially good with their realistic rally tampos. All the best and enjoyed your video =)
Wow....you have at least 100 of those badboys or more ....I saw a old Honda Prelude I really liked...I like the Police cars, Porches, and VW Beetles also...very cool...that BP oil tanker truck....should be worth 100 bucks...it is real nice!
those oldies are goldies! I've got 2 Majorettes, a Gull Wing BMW M1 Turbo & a Lambo Countach, 200 series) 2 Hot Wheels, a Schuco, a Yatming and a few Corgi Juniors on my non Matchbox display amonst 200 Lesney's, still love em esp their 3 spoke wheels, thanks for the overview on Majorette, quite a collection! or several collections by most standards.
I grew up with that cars, as they were sold at our local shop, my dad often bought me one when we did the shopping. I started restoring some of them now!
I had a few of these from the late 80's. I remember having a Toyota Hilux, a Fiat Strada hatchback, a Renault Encore with opening sunroof, Volvo 760, 2 Cadillac Sedan Deville stretch limos, an Excaliber and a morgan roadster.
Very nice collection! A other type of majorette wheel is the ''hudcap'' style. Produce in the 60s. I have a few sample in my collection with this type of wheel. A yellow citroen / maserati SM, a blue datsun 260z, a plymouth police car and a Jaguar E type :) I'm quite jealous of your unique military vehicules and the car at 4:30, she looks pretty!
I saw a lot of majorettes that I have in this video. I have one no 201 ford model A pickup in blue colour. Paint was bad so I did a custom . Also have one 4×4 toyota pickup no 292. Great video.!
That Chevy truck with the (really well modeled) gun on the back should be WAY more popular. It looks better than a biwayman or snow plow. Maybe even the beloved '83 Silverado Premium Hot Wheels. Thanks for the show!
In my country town in Australia the only place you could buy these in the 80s to early 90s was the chemists (drug store for North Ameracans). Great memories of these making you feel better after picking up medicine when crook. I've seen these in Toyworld in Ballarat with pretty good rotation over the last few months but still more of a fan of the originals.
wow! what an amazing majorette collection , you have. I learned something today about series 100. I didn't know nothing until now. Thanks for sharing your video.
I had a few hand me down sonic flashers as a kid, those batteries did last really long, I was playing with them back in the early to mid 2000s. Really neat gimmick! I alwayed prized the few 90s majorette’s I had.
Majorette we’re rare to have in shops when I was a kid mostly matchbox and corgi but I did have a few they had the best suspension, the casting could be a bit brittle, they often came with extras like trailers with boats. Cool to see thank you for sharing brother
Great selection of cars on display... I have had some Majorettes in my collection and used to play with them... also I remember they were one of the few brands in 1:64 scale which offered opening doors hoods etc. and had suspension. The variety of models was also varied from normal cars to tractors and trucks... infact I have restarted collecting majorettes recently and even did a review of one of their theme sets. Lovely video and as my motto goes.. collect and show!!!
I had some sweet *Tomica* and *Siku* cars during the early 80's, I remember our local Chemist/Pharmacy/Drug Store had a massive selection of Majorette probably the best in town 👍
2:57 We can see your "Plymouth Police", a casting lauched in March 1973. Your variation is from 1979. Rarest variation ever is a KHAKI Plymouth with a number on the hood, released in 1976 in USA and Canada in Super Singles blisterpacks. Super Singles and Super Tandems cards read "Distributed by Charles Merzbach Company, NYC".
Omg the memories of me playing with this cars i just turn 29 and i remember playing with my 1st majorette in 1992 that's 27 years ago wow thanks for the nostalgia
I started looking at Majorette cars when they came out with the Sonic Flashers. I still have several that still activate, as you said, over 20 years later. Having just recently started collecting again and realized that I have a couple of the military versions still on the card. Great series but were heavily undervalued here in the US when they started. Great episode.
Something I grew up with too. I like how their die cast buses and trucks are compatible in size with their 1:64 cars whereas Matchbox, Tomica & Hotwheels had buses in much smaller scale. And way back in 1984 my dad bought me a Renault Taxi but was stolen. A few years ago I managed to get it back, thanks to Ebay and the internet. Also lost a green Paris bus while moving house but got it back the same way.
I'm surprised Hasbro hasn't thought of buying majorette because think about it, Currently in the USA, MATTEL has a monopoly for toy cars aimed at children yet Hasbro is the leading toy company in the USA yet they don't have a diecast brand, if they did buy majorette, they would become king since Hasbro has been trusted by many families for years now for price and high quality, and that's what's majorette's goal has been as well.
They wouldn't even have to buy them completely, they could just buy the distribution rights and then both companies make money. And if Majorette wants to cancel USA involvement again then they can and it's no big loss to them.
Do you really believe that Hasbro didn't consider that? There's colossal market research to evaluate whether the money spent is worth it and/or it would bring more profit being invested in other toy areas.
Thanks for showing your nice collection:-) I have a small collection of Majorette cars from the 70 sand 80s. Some of them never been opened from the blister cards. I do think the quality from the 70s and 80s are the best with opening parts, the working suspensions and metal base and same size as Hot Wheels and Matchbox. From mid 90s and up till today the quality differs, e.g. going from metal base to plastic and the metal base IMO from the 90s are slightly thinner. And today’s Majorette seems slightly bigger, just like German Siku, than Hot Wheels and Matchbox. I definitely like the size better from Hot Wheels and Matchbox better than Majorette and Siku. And I think Majorette today focuses to much on French cars - or at least they used to back in the 90s and early 2000s. And I’m not really a fan of a French cars although some of the cars today actually are quite good looking IMO. But I would never buy a French car though. But I guess you don’t see many French cars on the road as a Canadian or in the US for that matter. Have you any new 2018/2019 Majorette cars not featured in the video or are you out collecting them and what are your thoughts on the new Majorettes? I do like the new Majorettes. I just think it’s a shame they don’t have a “premium” line with metal base and rubber wheels and the and still not a fan of the size of the cars. But I’m thinking of starting to collect or buy at least some of the cars that I like. Only thing is in Denmark Majorette is pretty hard to find as well as Hot Wheels and Matchbox. 1/64 diecast collecting isn’t very popular in Denmark. In Europe 1/64 scale isn’t very popular amongst collectors
A great video and a lot I did not know about Majorette, I did not like them much as a child, but they made some good stuff here and there and their modern stuff is great, I have and early toyota celica by them that I bought at TK max and it has great suspension and is a cool car and one of my treasures, so give majorette another look as they are good cars for the money!
Great video, history lesson and cool collection you have there. Was a bit sad to see only 1 Mustang SVO, if you need some of the different variations let me know. Since this video is a bit older you have probably added to this collection

Majorette is still cool today. I am in Ontario and just found a store that stocks some of their latest releases. I am in Ontario, and just found a store that stocks some of its recent models.
It's funny when I was really young I had a huge collection of Micro Machines, but for some reason I sold them off years ago... regretting that nowadays...
@@wtffor majorette literally disappeared here in ireland around 1990 & have only begun hitting the shelves here again in 2018 but much more limited compared to the 70s - 1990.Glad I have a lot of my childhood majorette in decent condition.
Great diorama. I was a big fan of the Series 3000. I had the blue Saviem truck with the yellow & blue trailer with the Michelin wordmark. What about the F1 transporters with the opening window and the two Formula 1 cars inside? I seem to remember I had the Ferrari one but I'm not so sure - it's been more than 20 years since I have last seen it :D
It's not Majorettes fault for failing, it's just cheap parents buying hot wheels and Chinese brand cars as they claim it keeps $$$ in their pocket, if they want toys that last forever and don't break and have high quality, get majorette!
It's not even that, it's just the USA has way too many diecast brands. The market is already oversaturated with cars and any newcomers have to afford to cut the loss and do something innovative to prosper in order to make their cars stand out, like M2 and Greenlight have done. Back in the 80s you had Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Playart, Kidco, Kenner, Summer, Tomica. Today it's even worse because you have Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Johnny Lightning, M2, Greenlight, Jada, Racing Champions, Daron/Realtoy, Maisto..and it goes on. Other countries are barely lucky to get Matchbox or Hot Wheels so Majorette prospers there.
O Dawg! Have you ever thought about restoring or customizing? It seems a natural progression for collectors, and is a great way to spend some quality time without the old ball 'n' chain demanding "favors" on those terrifying cold winter nights. Seriously though, my old hag was serviced not 8 months back and is already hassling me for num nums. he he he he! Oh crap...she's standing right behind me, isn't she?....gulp...goodbye cruel world. ;) Jack - Canada R.I.P.
I know what you mean about your favourites and the military also used have lots of vans and tow trucks and Jeep Cherokee the sheriff's one my favourite is the little Avis van think it's a Renault they are a big part of my childhood we used go to Spain and i bought must of them from there i'm trying to buy as many as i can there very hard to find apart from E-bay they rarely see them in UK shops i'm not into the new ones at 25 i have many more years of collecting ahead 👍
Thank you! I do not have a Tonka collection, not of small scale anyway... I do have one shelf in my garage with a few big old beat up Tonka trucks and tractors, but it's nothing overly special, just my nostalgia kicking in once again. I would love a Tonka collection, but simply don't have the room!
When I was a kid I had that grader! And the the crane I had a limo two I also had the bulldozer some ambulances and dump trucks I had a shell tanker ! Still have some of these to this fucking day! Cool brand bad bases 😂😂😂😂😂😅😁😁
Wow...well once again you just blew me away. The Limos are wild. I loved the suspension on these. Some Matchbox had it to. They were fun as a kid with little ramps.

Best Quality at my childhood. Beautiful collection.
Nice, nice, nice!!!
Congratulations for your majorette collection! !!
It is pretty clear you care them a lot

I saw a lot of majorettes that I have in this video. I have one no 201 ford model A pickup in blue colour. Paint was bad so I did a custom . Also have one 4×4 toyota pickup no 292. Great video.!
I loved Majorettes when I was a kid!! Always thought they were more detailed for the times.
So many memories! Thanks!
I love this video- it is beautiful
and the reverence is truly appreciated- I love it and share it to anyone who will listen
Awsome vid man love the vintage majorettes.
Awesome collection and I still have some in my collection, and my favorite one is the Cadillac limousine that my grandmother gave me.
I got a lot of memories playing with this (majorette cards) my favourite ones!
That Chevy truck with the (really well modeled) gun on the back should be WAY more popular. It looks better than a biwayman or snow plow. Maybe even the beloved '83 Silverado Premium Hot Wheels. Thanks for the show!
It's one of my favorite trucks in my collection! Hard to find them in "the wild" I've noticed

I'm very fond of old diecast majortte i have more than 50 still in my collection since 1978 to 1989.
All I can think about when I saw that white Countach was that scene from The Wolf Of Wall Street.
Yes! So true! What a wreck LOL
I love cars I have 280 models,majorette
Citroen acadiane, Renault express,Saab turbo,and more I can't say how much love em,most people,trusted

Can’t wait to watch this! Thank you!
That majorette 1957 black chevy bel air, I used to have one just like that I got it for my 12th birthday😊❤👍
..at 17:43, I cracked up.. the most amazing collection and backstory I presume. great vids~
Awesome! thank you sir.
Good stuff. It’s a shame they can’t get more of a foothold in stores.
loved the vid, thanks so much!! my limited knowledge is with hot wheels and matchbox.. love vids on the less well known brands!!!
A great video and a lot I did not know about Majorette, I did not like them much as a child, but they made some good stuff here and there and their modern stuff is great, I have and early toyota celica by them that I bought at TK max and it has great suspension and is a cool car and one of my treasures, so give majorette another look as they are good cars for the money!
"Here's a Lamborghini Countach made in France" Throws model. LOL!
My favorites are the "Majorette Miami Set" and the "Neoplan" bus with "Miami Beach" written on it.
Wow.and that surrounding in green is awesome
Great video, history lesson and cool collection you have there. Was a bit sad to see only 1 Mustang SVO, if you need some of the different variations let me know. Since this video is a bit older you have probably added to this collection
Love the red Honda prelude!

I think this video may have inspire me to start a Majorette collection!!!
I was collecting in the 80s. I am sorry I did not collect them with matchbox and hot wheels.
So cool
awesome collection thanks for sharing
Excellent presentation, thanks man.
Majorette is still cool today. I am in Ontario and just found a store that stocks some of their latest releases. I am in Ontario, and just found a store that stocks some of its recent models.
Love the video very informational as always 🤘🤘 would love to see a more up close one on one car to car on the series 100 cars
I love all your oddball collections. I was wondering if you collect micro machines?
It's funny when I was really young I had a huge collection of Micro Machines, but for some reason I sold them off years ago... regretting that nowadays...
love my older majorettes, great video very informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The white Novacar Sheriff SUV is a Nissan Pathfinder (1st generation), not an Isuzu Rodeo!
Thank you for the correction!
Novacar were made in Portugal, yes its a Nissan Pathfinder or you can call it also Nissan Terrano 1 in Europe!
@@wtffor majorette literally disappeared here in ireland around 1990 & have only begun hitting the shelves here again in 2018 but much more limited compared to the 70s - 1990.Glad I have a lot of my childhood majorette in decent condition.
Love the Countach's!!
Awesome collection
Great. Collection great to see you weekly Tom long isand ny
GREAT video my friend GOD BLESS🚘😎
I'm a simple French man, I see franch Majorette I upvote!
Thanks I got some big feels off the lights and siren 928 porche it was like one of the only majorette I had
Ciao bellissima collezione di modelli ormai obsoleti, di questi ho tantissimi ricordi di infanzia complimenti 👍🏻
Amazing junkyard 😍
Great diorama. I was a big fan of the Series 3000. I had the blue Saviem truck with the yellow & blue trailer with the Michelin wordmark. What about the F1 transporters with the opening window and the two Formula 1 cars inside? I seem to remember I had the Ferrari one but I'm not so sure - it's been more than 20 years since I have last seen it :D
Picked up maybe 20 Majorettes back when Walmart carried them in Canada.
Wow good job i also have some of these cars nice.
2:00 Oh man that I got that ice-cream truck

O Dawg! Have you ever thought about restoring or customizing? It seems a natural progression for collectors, and is a great way to spend some quality time without the old ball 'n' chain demanding "favors" on those terrifying cold winter nights. Seriously though, my old hag was serviced not 8 months back and is already hassling me for num nums. he he he he!
Oh crap...she's standing right behind me, isn't she?....gulp...goodbye cruel world. ;)

Hahaha..... Good one! Lately I haven't had time for customizing, but when I do I would enjoy it. Winter is a great season for it here in "the North"
Great video and narration!
Thanks!
Cool collection, I am guessing not but are you missing any castings? I do not collect Majortte and have aquire a few. I can send photos.
Did your cat bite your hand? If so hope it gets better soon.
Work related injury, it's healing nicely now, thank you for your concern :)
I know what you mean about your favourites and the military also used have lots of vans and tow trucks and Jeep Cherokee the sheriff's one my favourite is the little Avis van think it's a Renault they are a big part of my childhood we used go to Spain and i bought must of them from there i'm trying to buy as many as i can there very hard to find apart from E-bay they rarely see them in UK shops i'm not into the new ones at 25 i have many more years of collecting ahead 👍
Awesome video and collection..wondering if u have a tonka diecast collection?.. would be awesome to see if u do.. ;).. big thumbs up.. :D
Thank you! I do not have a Tonka collection, not of small scale anyway... I do have one shelf in my garage with a few big old beat up Tonka trucks and tractors, but it's nothing overly special, just my nostalgia kicking in once again. I would love a Tonka collection, but simply don't have the room!
Majorette cars are very well built and detailed
interestig vid, though i think you should mention the quality and durability of their opening parts.
I forgot to do that, it would have been a notable mention...
pour moi ça me rappel que des bon souvenir 🤩
"Cadillac and Mercedes limousines with four opening doors, opening sunroof..."
Don't forget the ejector seats for irritating passengers.😁
Amazing!!
Great vidio bud!
When I was a kid I had that grader! And the the crane I had a limo two I also had the bulldozer some ambulances and dump trucks I had a shell tanker ! Still have some of these to this fucking day! Cool brand bad bases 😂😂😂😂😂😅😁😁
The only thing i hated about this brand is that they didnt fit on hotwheels track because they were too wide.....
Funny how I have most of these!
