From the twisted mind of our friend George Bojachuk came this bullet-riddled 1932 Ford B400 V8 Convertible Sedan. When the first run of 1500 went out, the Columbine shooting rocked the country and hastily attempted to get them off the shelves of their brick and mortar outlets. Managers were told to throw them in the dumpsters. I happened to be at one of the stores when the directive came out and the manager just gave me one because they were deleted from their inventory. George got the order to "fix this" and with their vendor began pumping out a more pristine version. It was called the "Bonnie and Clyde" Ford but, again, according to George it was not meant to be the car they were killed in (which was a '34 Ford Deluxe Sedan) but rather a V8 Ford that they stole and dumped after a police chase. The model is very imaginative with well modeled bullet holes on the outside of the body and simulated horse hair insulation poking out of the fenestrated door cards, A legible copy of the Joplin (Missouri) Globe protrudes from the map pocket. Either in the trunk or the back seat are enough small ares to equip an army squad. The model itself is well detailed down to the ignition key with embossed FM key fob. I don't know if anyone - certainly not Franklin Mint- knows how many of these bullet-riddled models are out there, but I sure enjoy mine... lotsa smiles!

Congrats on your catch Geoff, it always amazes me when I think these models were first sold almost 25 years ago!
