Scale and Subject

This Oxford Diecast model replicates the 1949 Mercury 8 Coupe in Calabash Yellow at 1/87 (HO) scale. It is made for adult collectors and hobby enthusiasts who value officially licensed, true-to-scale miniatures. The diecast metal body includes plastic parts and a detailed interior and exterior. It arrives in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging inside a plastic display showcase.

Display Focus

The model has no opening doors, hood or trunk, so it is intended for static display rather than interactive play. Collectors upgrading from simpler toy cars will appreciate the licensed accuracy and showcase-ready presentation. The jump is worth it when the priority is shelf presence and scale fidelity over moving features.

Ready to Show

Installation consists only of removing the model from its clear showcase and placing it on a layout or shelf. At approximately 2.375 inches long, the piece is small enough to be knocked over easily, so a stable surface or secured display case is advisable. The sealed packaging means no assembly is required, but the fixed parts cannot be repositioned.

Questions about this item

How much space does the 1/87 scale model occupy on a display shelf?

The diecast measures approximately 2.375 inches long, so it fits easily on a standard HO-scale layout shelf or in the supplied plastic showcase.

What is the correct way to place the model in its showcase without stressing the diecast?

Gently lower the car onto the showcase base; the model has no opening doors or hood, so avoid applying pressure to any panel gaps that do not exist.

Keep the model away from direct sunlight and handle it with clean, dry hands; the diecast metal and plastic parts require no polishing or lubrication.
