GL is offering us a lot of great models. Know I will want to get the postal police from the blue collar series and at least a couple of those pickup trucks would look good on my diorama whenever I get it set up again. I grew up in a small town where Standard/Chevron was one of five stations in a town of less than 500 people. :huh:

What is the 'thing' about those VW double-cab pickup trucks, anyway? Everybody seems to be coming out with them......Matchbox, M2, now GreenLight?! Don't get me wrong, I like the models very much.....but Matchbox was 'first to market' (hope that's not a Kmart/Hot Wheels copyright.....); does that mean M2 and GL are capitalizing on the popularity/anticipation that has been expressed for the Matchbox model?

I mean, the M2 and GL models will have much more detail than the MBX, so there's that.

Greenlight always finds new ways to lift money out of my wallet. I love the new series they come up with. The Running on Empty series should be huge with the gas and oil collectors. I like about 4 out of those 6. And 5 out of the 6 from Blue Collar 2.

It's just another Volkswagen that people can flock to. I, personally, don't get the type of following that anything VW brings in..the horse is getting beat

For me, it'll be the Dodge RAM 2500 with snow gear, Postal Inspector Explorer, and maybe the VW. The Running on Empty series looks really nice. But, I swear the F-100 would look better with a tow crane. Hard to pick which one I like best.

Wow I'm really please with these. Man it's going to be hard to pick just a few. Is the Ford F-100 a short bed? The Mississippi one. I'm tired of the M2 extended beds. Sorry but I'm being honest.

This is a great series. Maybe Sunoco will show up in a later round.

If that Charger has the same stance in the flesh I might not be able to leave without one.

I pre-ordered the "Runnin'" series, but passed on the Charger. I understand why the Charger was chosen with the Petty/STP connection of NASCAR, but really wish another truck had been chosen. It just seems out of place. Maybe I'll be sorry when I see it in the flesh.

As for Blue Collar, I'm most excited about the Dodge pick-up, but surprised at Grump booty Garage livery. Is that fictional or is there such a place like Gas Monkey maybe? Also might select the Yenko van. That Chevy van casting is still absent from my fleet.

The Ford's "Tupelo Grease" is a trendy clothing line.

I hope they will. GL had Sunoco on the Mark Donahue Javelin.
