Yeah.... 😒 😒 😒 Sadly, these are all just re-paints.
You'll recall I was VERY excited about "Mr. Tomato" until ACME confirmed with me that they will NOT be replicating the "funky wheel cut-outs" seen on the car - as it raced in the 1960's - but rather, they'll be replicating the "restored version," minis those funky wheel cut-outs. 😔 😔 😔
The Hudson looks good in blue & red. 😉
I'm still waiting for their ALL-NEW TOOLING '55 Nomad - 3 years overdue. They promise by December '26 "Fingers crossed!"

This one looked sharp. Is this one a repaint also??

@perrone1 Oh yeah..... years ago, ACME re-worked (rounded out the rear wheel openings ) the 1961 "Mad Man" Precision Miniature's '61 Vette and have been offering different liveries ever since. This "modern blue with red stipe" is their latest.
