My iCons 1.25th scale 427 Cobra. The overall shape is spot on and there are great details throughout. The only "flaw" is that the tires lack sidewall detail and are a little plastic-y, but that's really nit-picking at this price point....

The "heat discoloration" on the side pipes is a real nice touch.....

Icon has done several models that looked great even next to a Danbury or Franklin Mint. Sounds like you got a good price too!

That looks like a nice one for the price.

Could not agree more Gene, great engine and interior detail regardless of price. I have the competition "Elvis" version too.

Looks great Gene! I see what you mean by the tire sidewall but not bothersome. The engine and interior detail is nice and the stance and fidelity to body shape seems to be spot on in your excellent shots. Love the burned-in side exhaust system!
