by A real battle unfolded at one of the online auctions for what seemed like an ordinary insert from Turbo gum. More than 70 people watched the lot, and in the end, the wrapper was sold for 2000 hryvnias, which is a record amount for such a lot.
It should be noted that the sold insert depicts a Dodge Conquest, which was produced in 1984-1986. The wrapper has the serial number “30”, which makes it valuable. The first 50 numbers are considered the rarest. More common but also valuable are the first 330 pieces. Recall that TopGir has a whole section Cars from Turbo Gum dedicated to the cars from Turbo inserts.
It is also worth noting that lately, there has been a real boom in collectible car models. For example, a toy truck model was recently sold in Ukraine at the price of a real car. By the way, ordinary Soviet models have significantly increased in price in recent years. Some of the early toys can cost over 10 thousand hryvnias, with an average of 1000-2500 UAH, depending on the collectible value and condition of the scale model.
