I still need to find one of those Majo police cars with the two sets of lights on top....or maybe ALL the variations of that one model.....it's eluded me for a long, long time....(rather than ME eluding the police driving that car..... )

I think Corgi had a similar one but I could be wrong That one shown does resemble the Metropolis Police ones Corgi put out

Nothing good ever happens after midnight.

The Corgi police car was a 1974 Buick Regal. The Majo police car is actually a Dodge Phoenix (1970 Plymouth Fury export model). I've been chasing the Majo version down myself...the only ones I've found are a little above where I want to go. Haven't looked lately though... Edited by 94cadillacfleetwood, Sep 15 2017, 03:53 PM.

Great photos Serge, and what a fun thing to do, making cool scenes with your models and scale buildings/accessories. I miss being able to do that myself, having fun with the collection. Thanks for sharing it! Still need one or more of those Majo police cars myself, I'm remembering back in the early 2000ths, probably '00 or '01, one of my guides listed its value at like $25, which sounded alright, about the max I'd want to pay for something really desired in those days, anyways, you could never find them for auction listed less than $45 at the time, so I never got one, I imagine the prices have gone higher by now. |
