Suspect this is the model that most MB collectors are waiting for this year. Looks stellar from the pics. TY.

This will be a very popular model with the fire engine collectors - really looks well done by Matchbox. Now to actually find one on the pegs. |

I usually don't grab the reg. version fire engines due to their size being so small, but this one will be the exception. Very nice!!! |

This is the only Matchbox issue of 2012 I am really looking forward to...I didn't know it was due out, I didn't even bother to check the Matchbox section at our Wal-Mart when I went in this past Saturday. |

^This. I will grab this one for sure! I think it's supposed to be a 1952 if I remember correctly from last year's announcement. |

I found two of these today after visiting my local Wal-mart. First I'd seen of them. Pretty sharp firetruck, the detailing is excellent in my opinion. I think it'll fit in perfect with my HO scale train and diecast. Jerry

I agree this is an excellent model and even though i don't collect fire apparatus models. I have ordered this one from Kiddie Kar! But the one I am really waiting for is the 56 Buick Century 2 door in police logos. It reminds me of the TV Show cars of Highway Patrol starring Broderick Crawford; one of my favorite cop shows as I was growing up as a teenager ! |

It was a good day to go to Kiddie Kar in Reading. Dave Specht went with me and we both added this outstanding Seagrave to our collections. I purchased 7 other models as well and Dave bought even more. Fellow PMCC menber Bill Deegan arrived just as we were leaving. (After Kiddie Kar we stopped at an animal shelter just a few blocks away and I found a new dwarf hamster named Rose. She made it back okay from the hot car ride and is now adjusting to her new home.)
