The Franklin Mint issued the Fairlane Crown Victoria in three color combinations. The 1st was issued in 1993; it was in Tropical Rose & Snowshoe White. The 2nd was issued in 2001; it was in Regency Purple & Snowshoe White; it was a LE of 9900. The final combination was issued in 2005; it was in Goldenrod Yellow & Raven Black; also, a Limited Edition, 1 of 2500. Nothing other than the colors changed in the 12 years between releases, they are all based on the original older tech from the 90s, but that doesn't stop them from being very nice models, which I feel represent the Fairlane Crown Victoria very well.

They are beautiful color combos, but I passed on them because of the buttwarts being part of the body casting. 😥 I do love my black/white DM version.😊

I guess I have the rose and white Franklin. Thought it was a Danbury version. I would like to have the black and yellow version. I have that color combo in the 1/18 Yatming. I like the color combo. I do have the Danbury black and white version.
