That !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is a gold mine of strange and unusual diecasts! I just found that deAgostini sold a collection of USSR cars there. There are so many nice models, and many of them you can find on eBay at reasonable prices!
Nami Belka - what a cute little car!
Microbus Start - complete with fishtails!
GAZ 13C Chalka - Save the wagons
CMZ C-1L - Looks like a Dalek from behind

Interesting fact: the 2nd pre-production design for the Dalek proposed a longer front skirt to conceal a three-wheeled frame. The production Shawcraft Mk. 1-3, however, ended up as just the familiar shape on casters with a dwarf actor inside to push around.

Also, that Belka is very similar to some other microcar out there, can't remember whose. Tail somewhat like a Heinkel, but there's a closer match out there...
