Car Lamley Group: 2013 Lamley Awards Poll: What was the BEST Matchbox New Model in 2013?

Let's shift gears just a bit. After several weeks of Hot Wheels polls, let's head across the hall to the orange brand...

A few years ago, before the Lamley Group idea was conceived, I ran a goofy little poll at the end of the year on several Matchbox Forums asking what was the Best New Model of that year. I did it four times, and I think collectors enjoyed participating. It was those polls that led us to start the Lamley Awards, which are now in their second year.

So after sadly skipping 2012, it is time to pick the Best Matchbox Model of 2013.

No need to review the year when it comes to Matchbox. There were a lot of strong opinions about what new models were released this year. From a collector perspective, there were a lot of duds, but a few gems as well. At least the number of collector-aimed models was higher in 2013 than in 2012.

So it is now time to pick the collector's favorite. Take a look below to see all the Matchbox new models released in 2013, and vote in the sidebar to your right, or follow this link:

2010 - Holden Ute

2011 - Aston Martin DBS Volante

2012 - Maybe the Seagrave, maybe the Buick. We never voted.
