I just got my latest Classic Gold shipment from Milezones.. I'll be the first to admit, I'm not a big fan of Gremlins, buuuuuuuuuuut...... LC/RC2 did an AWESOME job on that Gremmy P/S.. Pic courtesy of Milezone.

You know, that's R/W/B- DadsCoronet is going to need that for his American Glory collection!

I never thought of the American Glory part. I guess I got wrapped up in the theme. They have a brand new hood on it, similar to the P/s Vega and it comes equipped with a rollcage which is also new. I wouldn't swear to it, but I think the rims are new too. I can't remember seeing them on anything else. I am getting old and my memory is failing. lol :lol:


Heck, it even comes with a tampoed rear window.

What's the tampo on the rear window? Please tell me they got the little Gremlin on the car somewhere!

Nah, it's actually an AMC emblem.. But it's still cool. I guess you, Ray and myself are the only ones who like this car over here. <_<

Everyone else would rather say 'It looks great' over on that other board.

Of course, the nice thing about the Garage is we are 100% free of corporate sponsors and can say exactly what we want about any given release. This one looks awesome! But the next might not.... Remember the '79 Mustang pace car casting trying to rear its ugly head? Wasn't mentioned there (to my knowledge).

For reference: http://swiftysgarage.net/index.php?showtopic=1228

Swifty's Garage- where you can speak your mind without fear of stepping on corporate toes.

Come to think of it, I hear there's a thread on the AMC Marlin that's current at Hobby Talk.

We covered that one back in May: http://swiftysgarage.net/index.php?showtopic=1393

Swifty's Garage- ahead of the rest!

Seems like I'm going to have to start an American Glory collection too!

Hey Swifty, since you started a BWF forum, are you going to have a PIP and American Glory forum too?

I wondered that too when they first came out with the car.. My first guess is it's probably going to boil down to whether or not LC/RC2 wants to pay Levi Strauss for licensing it. I think it'd be cool for sure. I've only seen 1 of those puppies in real life and I always thought it was a cool idea.

I haven't seen that one yet. Going to have to see if I can't pick one of those up!

I'm going to have to talk to Russ - my distributor is a lot slower that his is. I haven't gotten any new release stuff I've ordered - just a bunch of Assortment cases!

I'd snap one of those up myself! Then again, I love Gremlins and snap them all up!

A PIP section will come if the BWF section takes off. American Glory, with the exception of DadsCoronet, I don't know anyone specifically hunting these cars down.
