Oh, so that's the new Lambo 'Polizie' they made for the premiere line? Looks good. Sad to know it won't hit here in India. You guys are so discriminant! Uhh! |

Oooo! The Karmann Ghia Type 34 is a convertible! The Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 looks like an identical model to the car, but, as I said in a previous post, the Lamborghini Gallardo casting will only be able to be used as a police car because the lights are incorporated with the windows, and that's a big bummer for me, but I still like it. The Renault Master Ambulance looks great!! It's the brand-new 2012 model too, which I found surprising! It also looks realistic, because it's not too small; it looks pretty big compared to normal cars. However, that might mean it might be made out of plastic with a metal base but I'll keep my hopes up! I'm just glad there's more European models in the line-up like the Renault. Thanks for the info Shabbir!

The Mad Documenter!

After seeing the photos, provided they aren't covered in crazy graphics, I will probably end up getting the ambulance and the Karmann Ghia as well. I hadn't planned on either but they look pretty good in blue resin. |

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

Thanks to you and Shabbir both for the reports on the Gathering! I wish I had been there, but I will be there in 2013! Some nice cars in the pipeline. But the generics are taking a turn for the worse. The fire truck and whatever this is supposed to be in particular: http://www.shabbir.com/pictures/mbpictures/ambassador/gathering/2013min05.jpg Thankfully it looks like the ship is turning around now. The 60th anniversary line has my attention, and I'm digging the Renault ambulance, Lamborghini police, and the VW! |

Man, that Gallardo looks nice, but do we really need another Polizia Italia version of it? I've seemingly accidentally accumulated 4, 3 from different brands, already! |
