They hatin.
NOT.
These are great models. The recent uptic in higher end 1/64 models abounds. And we are better for it. The attention to detail on these is impressive. Each of the 4 models are distinctly different. There are 3 different push bars. 2 different light bars. 3 different wheel choices. What is to complain about. Well the wait was excruciating and I didn't get my complete order. And when compared to other 1/64 models they are pricey. The regualr NYPD, LAPD and black are all limited to 799 pieces. Chase NYPD Auxilliary is just 5% of the run so about 120 pieces.
A kit version would be awesome. My only wish is that they made a version with no side trim.
With these GOC and 596 my modeling juices are flowing a little freer than they had been.

Re: They see me Rollin...
Thanks Jeff. The potential for all these new lines is huge. The LAPD version is the pick of all the releases so far. 596 have seen the potential of the Crown Vic and we should start seeing police versions of their Crown Vic soon as well.

Re: They see me Rollin...
It is nice. I just wish these companies would see the benefit of other models besides the Crown Vic. A classic for sure. But there are other models I think would sell just as well. A 91-96 Caprice comes to mind.

Re: They see me Rollin...
Happy to see new and improved models of the Crown Vic at this stage. Fingers are crossed that down the line we see different car models. Would not be disappointed to see a 90’s Caprice or even the last of the Caprices from 2010’s. However the top of my list is for one of these new companies to do a 1988 to 91 Crown Vic.

Re: They see me Rollin...
I agree that the late 90s CV wpuld be great. Greenlights is actually pretty good. But it is a major pain to work with. For the amount of castings it takes to make one good model something at this level makes sense.Mark B wrote: ↑Fri Sep 13, 2024 12:50 amHappy to see new and improved models of the Crown Vic at this stage.
