(PICS) **BREAKING NEWS** New tooling 1/18 FULL FUNCTION model coming!

Made by ACME:

A diecast 1:18 scale 1969 Chevrolet Blazer 4x4 in Red with a White with a removable roof, opening hood & doors, and a fully detailed engine, interior, and chassis. Below is a photo of a real one (the actual 1:1 being referenced/duplicated) and the pre-tool resin mock up.

Expected in May, 2019 with a retail price around $135.00
This is SURE to be a BIG hit!

I've had the Steve McQueen '69 Chevy 4x4 / Baja truck on order for months.

I believe it's distributed by Greenlight using HWY-61 tooling....which is suppose to be 'new'.
Wonder if ACME is using modified HWY-61 tooling?

Who can keep track? Better yet...does it really matter?!

Last I saw, the McQueen 4x4 was due any day. But, like I said - who knows?

There are to be "new parts" not a complete new mold for the Baja GL/Hwy truck #Hwy18007. It's just new suspension and wheels/tires I believe. The newest information/update says expect them in January. Just thought you may want to know.
