Is anyone aware of a scale model Marauder kit or die cast car on the market?

There is not a real Marauder Model on the market yet. The ones you see are CVs or GMs converted. Some look better than others, but they are still not a Marauder. Many people have tried to get one made, but its a hard process to get done. There have been many threads about this, you can search them if you like.

IMO It is highly unlikly that a Marauder Model will be produced. The ones on Ebay are converted Crown Vic's.

My son picked up a couple for me off of E-Bay. :D Here are some pics of 1:18 scale models. :)

I got 1/18 and 1/24 models of my car from apparently the same source as Bluerauder's son. Sorry it's been awhile and I can't remeber his name, but check the old threads. My advice is-get the 1/24 and skip the 1/18. The problems in the clumsy conversion of a Crown Vic police car are much less obvious in the smaller scale, plus the paint finish is better. The color match of my blue car was spot-on, so he's using factory colors, but the 1/24 car is actually smaller according to my measurements, more like 1/26 or 1/27. Get it soon, because it's likely no manufacturer will ever produce a Marauder diecast (but you can get a Saturn LS, for chrissake..)

Maybe if enough of us ask http://www.revell-monogram.com/info/ , they might make a kit for us, worth a few moments of time IMO :)
