I'm thinking that's an invention of Mattel's...like the GTO wagon. Looks good, but not exactly factory. |

No, the only 55-57 Sedan Deliverys made were based on the 150-210 handyman 2door station wagons, they were the same roof as a window wagon, only the Nomad had the slanted pillars, ribbed roof and ribbed tailgates. While the Hot Wheels 56 panel looks great No 1/1's were ever produced as such. |

I think they look great. Come on Sean! Have you ever heard of custom made cars. They could be real or at least there could be a possibilty of them being made into a 1:1 car. |

Albeit I do have an example of the GTO wagon, but I have to draw lines somewhere. I have far too many Tri-Five Chevrolets in my collection as is. if it's a new bodystyle, it may have my attention. Custom bodies, not so much. Don't get me wrong, if Hot Wheels did a customized 1960 Edsel panel (something I also think never existed) I would snap it up because I don't have other 1960 Edsel station wagons in my collection (or really, that many Edsels in general). But for a car that has been covered so thoroughly in this scale? There are much better rides to spend my money on. Maybe if they do a really stunning two-tone sans delivery logos it will get my attention.

Support your local demo derby.

I might spring for one of these wagons when they trickle down to the $1 line. The first one reminds me of the recent MB Lesney release of the GMC pickup. |

Ah....just think of it as a vandalized Nomad that some kid spray bombed the rear windows over.... |

Another way to look at it is Mattel cost cutting strategy. Take an existing casting...in this case the 56 Nomad that's been around for a couple of years...modify the tooling *slightly* and block out the rear windows...and call it a Sedan Delivery. In fairness, the Nomad roof, tailgate and B pillars do look a lot better than the Handyman or standard Sedan Delivery. And this series is pretty cool with all of the old speed part logos. Have they done Hooker Headers yet? Somehow I don't see a mom buying a panel van that says "I love my Hooker....Headers" on the side of it for a ten year old!

These were released in premium series back in 2010. |
