A Gremlin and a Pinto... really? The models have about the same quality level as the 1:1s.

I really marvel at the baseball bat size turn signal lever on the Gremlin.

Overall, with a little detailing they might not be so bad. Who else is going to make them!

Remember the Gremlin Levi Edition. That was cool.

Ok for budget models. Not every car lover can afford precision diecast. Who made these?
