The Taurus looks great, but which model do you think looks best? (NOTE: The pics below are not mine) "Fargo Police" (My favorite) "Airport Police" ![]() "MBX Police" "MBX sheriff" Here are some other ones: "Police Pursuit" & "MBX Police" (5-pack) |

The 1st one is best. The last one is cringe-worthy. |

I am drawn equally to the designs on the first two. However, the Fargo would win in a showdown, based on the Airport Police car's blue windows. |

![]() What's with the numbers on the roof? Isn't there a more discrete place to brand these? Not to mention, if the purpose is to identify them readily in a toy box so you can rob a kid of his unsafe plaything...isn't the roof the most likely place for the numbers to wear off?

Support your local demo derby.

Wes, that's the numbers they put on pre-production ready new MBs these days. Those are not used on production versions that are shipped. |

What Crafty said. That is the photo that was shown as a Sneak Peek by Mattel. That version is not yet out. |

The Fargo police car is certainly the best of the bunch. I missed the airport and K9 versions, did find the cring-worthy last one though!

If it wasn't for the blue windows, I'd vote for the airport Taurus...However the Fargo PD wins hands-down. |

I've got 3 of the Fargo ones, although I want to have every single one, some don't look as good as I want it to be.

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

Okay, then switch the glass to clear or smoked before production!!! LOL. The blue and red glass certainly isn't going to increase sales, kids or not. Edited by ivantt, Aug 16 2012, 02:02 PM.

Yeah, I agree with JustDavid. The Airport security looks absolutely brilliant with the hub cab wheels with metallic silver and the blue stripe going down the side. It really makes the 2012 Police Interceptor looks a lot more modern in my eyes for some reason. But, because of that window tint on it, I'd have to say the debut model gets the ticket. And I'm somewhat disappointed that they made the mistake with window tint on the "Taurus" again, and they did it to the Evo too! Well, at least I can still look forward to that Airport security model!

Just passed through Fargo and fortunately didn't have any of the Fargo PD cars keeping an eye on me. I could say I am prejudice since I live in ND and truly enjoy having Fargo police cars in my collection (both Matchbox and the Greenlight version). Of those shown I would give my vote to the Fargo car, closely followed by the Airport Security version.
