So here it is. I think still about 3/4 month out from hitting the store.
It is a nice model. It might be hard to get.
Next outing might be the bright red.

Oh that's cool. Gonna have to grab a few of those!
MOST Definitely!!!!!!!!!!!
Perfect color (RED) for @jviera
Oh yeah, Ill need some of those especially in red..good job..
Joe I sure will get one, or two, or? John V
Joe, Jay is looking around his shop for some white paint. lol John V
I'm sure he still has some left over john :002:
So awesome Abe !!!
are these going to be sold at official dealers or just on special collector sites ?
Want at least the black one.
loving the Mercedes Polizei UNIMOG. reminds me of an older SiKU model. A friend of mine has the real thing ( 4x4 7ton).
They will be at any retailer that sells Matchbox Basics. In the US Walmart and Target mostly. In Europe I think different stores carry them.
Nice job on the '57 Ford Matchbox! I'll be purchasing some as it is essentially an exact replica of my car.
I've always looked for one! Thanks or the great job! I just need a little white paint!
I want one of those! I can paint it white.
Just got the notice Bradford is making a 1/18 scale model of my Coral Sand and Colonial White Skyliner but, they will sell for about $180. ea. Ouch!!!!
Ron.
I'm just wondering. Why they are calling it a Custom 300?
Seems these co's always seem to get a few of the details wrong. The old AMT's were always more correct than these chinese castings. You would think they would at least ask someone familiar with the year/model they are making to proof them.
Ron.
Hey Ron, what details are wrong? We can try to fix it on the next one.
There are limitations at one 1/64 scale and tooling limitations.
Just be happy I cared enough not to do a hardtop.
Well I found out that Walmart does not have them. I have to keep looking.
Hey Abe...score a bunch of them for all of us! LOL!!! They will all be sold out in hours...no matter how many you grab! :002:
I asked for a bunch already. I think we have about a month before they show up. Currently mix 3 is hitting shelves. This will be the next mix.
Abe, I was actually refering to the 1/18 Skyliner which has the heater blower on the wrong side of the firewall. Most of the Franklin and Bradford models have some glaring mistakes especially considering the price they ask. That 1/64 model looks great for the small scale.

Excellent...I'll take a couple...if I can get 'em. since I don't get notifications about stuff on the site (as many don't) just text me and I'll send ya' the dough. Thanks sir.
SkylineRon- that would bug me to no end also.
we took a look at a few kits for ours and Ford has been really picky on sculpt approvals lately.
I really keep thinking on how to do a 1/64 moving top Retractable bit alas too many small parts.
Abe, It would be hard to syncro all the small parts. Ford barely fit it all in a full size car!
Ron.
Have any of you Mass. guys found a store that is selling them?
Not out yet. Sound like in a month or so.
