Yes, Maisto has been putting out more of the factory colors. I have a Twister Orange and Oxford White GT500 from Maisto.

Same here. If I pick up an Eruption Green some relative's kid will get a used Oxford White. I'm out of parking spots.

I see some gold 77/78 Trans Ams. Picked up a black one last year. Too much to hope for one in the Cameo White I ordered mine as. And its a shame none of the 77/78s from any brand I've seen has the Fisher tops. They all have the crappy little Hurst ones. No doubt for buyers who want the "Smokey" tops.

dammit. When are they gonna bring out any eruption green M1’s. I know there’s one out there but the color looks so bad I would never buy it.

Good question. I haven’t seen Maisto even do the Mach yet. GT Spirit has done them but I don’t think they’ve done Eruption Green. I’d like to add an S550 Mach to my diecast collection but they’re hard to find at a decent price

If I have to buy the GT500 in the picture to tide me over I will. But I’m hoping they eventually do one.

Have seen only one 1:18 M1 and that is the silly expensive FJG car that was a resin model very detailed. I think they made like 12 :crackup:

I actually returned a car I got last year to get the same model in a preferred color. No issues since the box was unopened. These things are selling for twice as much in Amazon. I definitely went to town on this pallet. I think other collectors “trade other cars” this way. I took the red one.

Not just changing colors. The last year's batch I bought from all had the same UPC code. I traded in an Audi R8 for a Chiron. I had originally bought the R8 just to cannibalize silver wheels for my 1:18 white S550 GT that came with black PP wheels. I ordered my 1:1 scale GT with the nickel version PP wheels and wanted the 1:18 to match. But when I got the Audi home, they didn't match.

AutoArt has a Grabber Blue GT500 out. I already have 3 S550 GT500’s but maybe I need one more…

Also, Rapid Red and Iconic Silver. I typically get my AutoArt diecast from Mint Models or Wholesale Diecast Models. If anyone is interested
