ALSO... Does anyone have one of the AutoArt Green Hornet Black Beauties???
... I've been thinking about possibly getting one, but all of the pictures I've seen of them show the little "satellite launch doors" (or whatever) on the trunk in the opened position. It's a cool feature, I guess, but I wouldn't want that to remain open all the time!
Do any/all of the weapons doors close??
Thanks in advance for any insight!

NEVERMIND... I found Rich's review on the website...
... What a HUGE disappointment!!! As much as I hate shelling out big bucks for diecast models, I would have gladly paid the extra $100 (+/-) for weapons doors that close!
At the very LEAST, I would think that someone at AutoArt would have been bright enough to come up with the idea of offering two different versions of the car: a weapons-showing version and a weapons-hidden version. That way, I'm betting they probably could have sold twice as many to all the idiots out there, like me, who just HAD to have one of each!
Hmmm... I wonder what would be involved in "altering" one-a-these things!!?
