Nice ! I wonder if there is any sharing of tooling going on ?

The recent shipment of Maistos to Sams Club didn' have it.
Maybe it will show up in Costco' future shipment

They are available from a massive diecast wholesaler/retailer, comes in Orange too.
Just wait till Costco or Sams has them for half there price if ya want one.

I might... I could upgrade the heck out of this! I like the 1/18 DM '70 but those dog-legs kill me!

..and yes, I did notice the orange. I saw a purple Solido 1/18 A/C Cobra too!

With what? This 1/18 Camaro isn't perfect but it looks ALL NEW to me. I'm sure the trunk opens....
...if not, then perhaps it's an Ertl? I must get a pic of the door hinges. That detail will speak volumes!

If it "all opens" and door hinges are not dog-legs then I think I'll have to buy it.

it all opens & doesn't look to be dog-legs on the doors (they are used on the trunk & hood, though).
not my pics...from Ebay.

Gavin, thank you! These are exactly the pics I was looking for. A great help!

glad to help, Christopher. Looks pretty good to me for very little money. I'm missing an early 2nd gen Camaro in my collection, so pretty excited about this.

I have two FM 1970 Camaros. There were probabaly only a few cars actually issued in 1:18 by FM.
They are very nicely done. (IMHBUAO).
