As more Nuremberg Toy & Hobby Fair pics trickle in, I thought I'd share SOME of what Greenlight - 1/64 has planned for this year:

A whole bunch of excellent models are under development. There will be some great releases coming up soon.

The two 69-70 Boss Mustangs are must haves for me. It appears that the demand for newer models of newer cars is prospering...interesting.

I suspect as younger folks (post baby boomer) start collecting model cars, they want models of things they remember. This actually is good, since it helps bring new folks into the hobby.

A case of mistaken identity. Ed is what I should have said. A good point about these cars bringing in younger buyers. My question about the pics you so kindly show was aimed at you though - if you know; are these 1/64th scale 'bucks' as they were termed by the Franklin and Danbury Mints?Excellent point Chris.
"Chris?"

As far as I know Tony, those are all 3-D printed scale-masters from which body tooling is derived. Not sure if the term "buck" is used any longer as it connotes a slightly different meaning. What I see most often today, regardless of scale, are 3-D printed masters, which get scanned into CNC equipment that precisely machines the necessary dies.
