I complete get and agree with your point. The sandbox toys fit a part of my modeling mindset. It is my modeling roots but they are also enjoyable to do.

What I don;t see in Greenlight that I see and have seen in every other manufacturer is a real passion for the product. Be it Tom Lowe, Scott Schellhase Arnie Rubin, Dennis Deal or many of the Mattel guys, they all had a passion of making a great product their customer not only wanted but felt they needed to have. I just don't get that feeling from Greenlight. The last several people I spoke to don't seem to be engaged or want to talk about the models, good or bad.

Your example of the CHP Tahoe is an excellent one. $20 for a model that inaccurate is tough. Especially when there are Welly models out there for $5 each. Another example is the Border Patrol markings on the new Durango, many have told them the colors are wrong. But yet they move forward with it. The price point on the GL models is high enough they should be more accurate than the lesser sandbox toys or items from Welly, Motormax, etc.

I know I am much more selective in what i buy from them. Especially with new or announced models I wait until I see it before going crazy. I also worry how they will fare with the loss of the Toys R Us stores. Can they survive on the hobby market alone. It would be interesting to see if AutoWorld jumped into the fray how they would do.

I just noticed the Durangos have closed hoods. And the one SRT has holes on the roof for light bars. That and I messed up the watermark.

There were a few other items around but nothing of note to us here. The event's main attraction is a warehouse sale. But I didn't really get too much of consequence. Some beaters for parts and a few for some other collectors. Many there were buying case lots. Price were not a lot better than online but there isn't any shipping.
