Great looking set. Neat to see them making use of the horse trailer. Know Blair will be hunting this one down as will I! :thumbup:

Absolutely! But having a picture of the "finished" product just makes me wish I could time travel to the future. (I just found out yesterday that the L and M batches--the final two of 2017's model year--are out. No info on what happened to the "K" case....hmmmm. Anyway, that news had me running to stores I would have ignored yesterday after my TRU run...and I found some of the L case models at one local Walmart. More on that later after I visit the other area WM this morning.)

Can't wait! I would have maybe preferred the Rapids Rescue in the mint green color as well, but it is still a great set, especially since it has the Blazer and Pony Trailer in it.

Does make you wonder why the Rapid Rescue is not in the mint green color?

It doesn't, unfortunately.

I'll be buying the set for the Blazer. I've loved that casting since I was a kid.

That's too bad the Blazer wont pull the trailer, unless I guess perhaps they may modify the hitch from what is shown on either the Blazer or trailer, assuming this is preproduction photos, I wonder though, but possibly one of the past National Parks releases, maybe an SUV like the Land Rover Defender would work.

I wonder if maybe "they" decided the initial appearance was "green" and having a "Forest Service green" was too similar?! At least the National Parks logo is printed on the front fender....
