It's been a couple of years since I got it from Mark A. at JJ. Nice truck at any rate. Prior to M2, this was the first 1/64 diecast with opening doors I had since I was a kid. Of course, not being into as many brands as i am now back then, I just became enthralled with Jr. here. The grill is tampoed here, as the front of the truck is molded smooth. This is the last of my photo-playing for the day. I've been spending way to much time here lately. I guess I'm becoming a garage guy who just likes to lay back and babble about as many different types of diecast as i can get my hands on these days...or as far as my wallet allows, I should say. Got some cool things coming this month. Should make for some interesting babble. Have a good weekend, people Edited by Dragnet_Supporter, Feb 5 2010, 08:37 PM.

Only thing this doesn't have is a metal base. This Mack was the hardest to find of any in the series. Wish Yatming would release these in some new colors sometime soon. Really enjoyed all the pics you've posted this week Robert. Look forward to see some more in the near future.

Hood doesn't open on this casting to my knowledge. And nice pics of a classic- I love this casting!

I have the red and yellow version. (I like the red version better). I saw a light blue version, but I didn't buy it.

Thank's for the encouragment on the pics, Zach. I'm going to pick up some better background paper today and hopefully that will work out better still for next week's pics. I have to go over my camera book more thoroughly to see how I can adjust the exposure better. I still have some bluring issues...though not as bad as before.

Did anyone buy these at a big box store?
