John, I do not remember seeing the Mini-Marque Edsel in person. How would you compare it’s level of detail and sharpness of hood, door, and trunk separation lines with the other two Edsel?

Since this a later release by Route 66 Models (I've not seen an original Mini-Marque model in person) I think this one is very nice and compares excellently to the Conquest versions it's pictured with. I am hugely partial to the '60, as it's my favorite Edsel and my favorite model of the many I have.

Nice Edsel lineup John. My fave year is the '59.

I used to have the MM43 '58 in turquoise, a great model but the paint was uneven due to packaging before the paint was fully dry. Should have kept it, Greg Gunn fixed a model of mine with the same problem in no time and if I had kept it long enough he could have fixed my Edsel too.
