Finally found the Police 5-pack at Walmart today, and posted my pics over on the Lamley Blog:

I also posted pics and the final prices of the Mattel-donated prepros at the Gathering:

And the Model of the Day is the beautiful GMC Stepside in black:

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Prepros- the Mustang and the Vista Cruiser would be my first and second choices. I'm liking the Magnum and Firebird too! I love the color on the Cadillac but the chips in the paint would make me pass on it. Especially at that price.

I'm waiting to hear what Ivan says about the red glazing in the Interceptor.

Support your local demo derby.

The Magnum wagon, Vista Cruiser, and Firebird with black base sure look sweet.

Welcome back George. :wave:

You got that right, SAK!! A perfectly good Interceptor spoiled by nuclear glass. I like the blue EVO, but too MUCH blue with the blue glass!! If they would have used glass the color on the Porsche, they would have been just right. I just may have to buy two of this 5 pack and make one set "right."
Glad to see you back. It's been awhile!

Although not listed, because it's not new, I got a Mercedes ML, in white resin.

As for the pre-pros, I would DEFINITELY go with the Porsche Panamera, I simply love its bold design, even though I know many Porsche purists and enthusiasts don't. And Swifty's right about the CTS Coupe, it's riddled with chips, and so are pretty much all of the other models, but as Mr. Lambert said, they're thrown in a drawer for a couple of years, so what else can you expect? Wait - did that Yamaho Rhino lose it's hood?! :o
