The ones that gave us those beautiful Dodge Challengers is bringing us some new 1/24. 1967 Shelby GT500. This will also be available in dark moss green w/white stripes. This is the pic of the pre-production sample. Expected date is supposedly June of this year.😊

@bob-jackman Bob, I love these Shelbys. I'll probably end up with both. From what I'm seeing the price is supposed to be $55.😊

At $55 that would be a bargain.

Hopefully they will not be static models and have working features.  And the price is reasonable if they do.  I have always said that if M2 can produce a decent vehicle and sell it for $25 at Walmart, someone can really make a nice vehicle and sell it for a little more and it will sell out.

@carsman1958 John, from the pics I've seen it does have opening features. Even internal door hinges.😊

that's great news but for heavens sake we need models, and I suggest the whole hobby, needs models that have not been done before!! Even from a manufacturer perspective, how big is the market for 1/24 Mustangs? I have 19 beautiful 1/24 Mustangs, including FMs 1967 Shelby GT500. Sorry to be a dampener on the whole thing but personally I'd much rather have a quality 1/24 diecast of the 1964 Pontiac Catalina kit I bought yesterday.

Correction 1961 Pontiac Catalina

pontiac
