That's pretty damn sweet, but where's the Rallye Chargers...a 72 atleast... in Top Banana. Maybe one day.
WANTED: NOS or excellent condition 72-74 4 speed shifter boot for bench or centre armrest car, part number 3467755. It's a rubber boot that looks like it's sewn up leather.

WANTED: My original 440 blocks. Serial # 2A188182 and 3A100002

Revell was about to release a 71 Charger and then they dropped out of the diecast business.  There are a pair of Ertl Authentic series 66 Chargers coming out very shortly so there is a big 3rd gen void that I predict someone will fill next.
Looking forward to that 70.

Cool! And now that they are tooled up, you will find a ton of different colors.

This has been a big void in the die cast market, IMO. It's great that someone's finally doing a '70!
To me, it does need a few detail adjustments, like the front marker lights & hood indents, but this is certainly the best try at a '70 I've seen yet...I'm definitely gonna snag one. :icon_smile_approve:

1st & 3rd gen cars have been largely ignored too. Hopefully the demand will continue & they'll make one of EVERYTHING soon.  :icon_smile_big:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I have the fast and furious 70 charger with th eblower.... I think it's kinda cool :D

:lol: You '69 guys are real comedians. I'm with Brian, a K5 one has to be made...

I need to get in line and order one tonight. I thought I would be before a legit '70 came out.

No. They did the Fast and the Furious car with blower and open headlights. They also did those FF cars in other colors

I hope to see one in top banana,with a black vynal top,and a black stripe ,just like my 70 R/T SE!

They chose the right colour to start with. I think they received a barrage of orders once the news hit the 70 Registry....can't wait until I get mine...think I'll paint V21 option on hood  ;)

MGBRingo

About time. 

It is also missing the Hemi fender tag.

I just ordered mine.  The wife is going to start getting on my case I think.  I keep buying all the Johnny Lightning Mopars I can find when they show up at toys R Us and Target.  I give them to my son (2.5 yrs) but the cool thing is he knows that these are his "special" cars that need to go back on his shelf when hes done!

I also picked up a Hot Wheels drag track at Target and we have bracket racing on saturdays!   :drive: :drive:

That's too cool.  When I was a kid I had the standard 60's Hot Wheels track with the dual strips and you had to clamp one end to a window ledge or something that high and then it went into a loop and a jump and ended with a little winners flag thingie.  Used to have races all the time with my cousin promptly followed by fights over the consistently quicker car.
