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!! :lol: 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!

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:

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!
