Only in 1/64 scale. :( Well I guess that is better than nothing and a start. ;)

[RoyLPita]

In that size, one could make a keychain out of it.

[Egon Spengler]

Only in 1/64 scale. :( Well I guess that is better than nothing and a start. ;)

That really stinks that it is only 1/64th scale... 1/18 scale would be AWESOME!!!

[DOOM]

FINALLY!!! I like that there doing the 04's.

[Embassy]

About time. This is better than nothing.

[huot5]

did someone inquire with the company about making one? that other company ( Corgi) or whatever makes old school firetrucks when they get enough requests to make them.

I would hope it's a Silver Marauder w/ black tints all around. and headers!! :rock:

So I guess that means no REAL Blues. :( Sux !! ;)

you might just have to do a little modding....with some Duplicolor dark blue pearl...

Well then it would be an '03 MM wouldn't it. :rofl:

[huot5]

Yes, but it will be "your" 03 ......a 'rauder is a 'rauder

[Crown Vicman]

I hope they do some in the 1:24 scale

There are only going to be 6500 of them.

MM.net should get together and buy them all, have a MM.net logo put on and sell them on this site.

I'm sure if they come in DTR, Black and Silver we would each buy one or two complete sets. Maybe they could make some blue ones too, but those are only 03's...

Or as mentioned above paint them.

Do we have 1625 members?

[Bluerauder]

Do we have 1625 members?
According to the home page, MM.Net has 4,320 members. Of course, active members may only be <10% of that.

1/64 is matchbox car size and Im pretty sure that Black will be the color of choice. If thats the case, I plan to have quite a few of them.

I love the site, but I dont agree with having a MM.net logo plastered on a limited run collectable car. I also dont agree with painting it a different color or even removing it from the blister pack. I collect die-cast cars and as soon as you remove it from the blister, its practically worthless. Look long term. This is our only shot at owning one and it WILL be valuable.

BTW, Check out STOCK-N-CUSTOM Release #6.
It shows a stock car and then the same car customized included in the same package. The 04 Marauder is included in this type of catagory. Im getting nervous that the custom version of the Marauder will have 22 inch wheels and a lime green paint job.

[DOOM]

When will these be available???

[Blackened300a]

When will these be available???

Looking like September

[TAKEDOWN]

i'll probably purchase 2 of those!

It will be the "stock" version. I emailed the company a while back suggesting them to make it as a "Modern Classic."These are available at Target, Kmart and Meijers and they are individually #d on the base I have quite a few of there diecats and pleased for the quality and price (3.49 @ K-Mart)

[Aren Jay]

I just like playing with them.

Glad to hear.

I know, because there's such a huge difference, right?:rolleyes:

Yeah it doesn't roll as fast a 03 die-cast would. :lol:

If someone is headed to those places, buy a few and sell to the bros here. I'll try to keep en eye out for them, too.

[MarauderMark]

Yeah!?:dunno:

[TiTo35]

I noticed people said they want one or two...but they are selling them in packs of 6...So we will have to buy 12 cars for 80 dollars to get 2 Marauders:confused:

[BigCars4Ever]

Pack of six but not all Marauders.

[FastMerc]

I am willing to bet they will make more than that but the 1st run will be black I am sure they will have the die and run other colors.But if not leave them in the packs they will be big bucks to diecast collectors some day! My order will be placed as soon as they are available. :D

[WPG_Merc]

Maybe someone can post a good pic of one.

Might be COOL to sell all 5 Marauder Generations as a set . My :twocents:
:D


:canada:

[Vortex]

Im not going to pay $30 for a matchbox car. Ill be glad to pay what, maybe $4 or 5 dollars but thats it.

You don't have to get it at the above link, you can get it in September at K-Mart, Meijers and Target at about 3.49-3.99...

[Aren Jay]

Wow they are going to make 262 times as many black 04 matchbox cars than the original number of black 04's?

Just noticed 6500 is 2% of the 325,000 they will make.

1235/6 black 04's were made.

so.

I'm going to post only what I've been told...:chat:
So everyone can make their own choices...
I talked with Jim (General Manager) a couple of days ago...
he said that he could NOT sell any single Marauders because they were a part of a set of 6 cars...
He emailed me back today to get my credit card information... he had approval from the manufacturer to provide him with just the Marauders...
Jim is "Diecast Alley".... www.diecastalley.com (http://www.diecastalley.com)

He is excellent to work with and I ordered two (2) from him...;)
I did not ask arrival dates...
Hope this is helpful...
