If they build it, would you buy it?

[SergntMac]

Wanna buy another MM?

How many of you may be interested in a custom made die cast of our MMs. I've suggest this to the folks at The Danbury Mint, and they promise to look into the possibilities here. Their die casts are typically much higher quality than you would expect, but they cost a bit more than usual too. Just wondering...

If they build it, would you but it?

[Wags]

I would. I have a 1968 Chevelle SS car from Danbury. It's the same color as mine, but not a convt. (I guess I can cut the top off of it!) They are really nice, and very detailed, but they are pricey (around $120).

[03 Merc]

Yes, as long as I can get it in a color besides black...;) Danbury does good work..if you get a list or group purchase going you can count me in for two of them...got to get one for both offices right?

[Fourth Horseman]

Absolutely! I'd love one for my desk!

[LincMercLover]

I'd like one! Those kinda things are great for car shows, etc...

[jwheeler]

Count me In too!

-J:)

[piglet]

The Pig is on board for (2) two. Master Card stanging by.

[Larry Vogel]

Count us in for 3.

[KSMM03]

Works for me....

[SergntMac]

Thanks all, please keep the feed back and replys coming. I've invited Danbury to visit this thread, let's give them something to read. The more interest we show here, the better our chances that Danbury will pay attention.

As it was stated here, the price may exceed 100 bucks per, however, I have an extensive Danbury/Franklin collection of my own, and I have never been disappointed in by quality and authenticity. If they build it, it will be a fine model.

Unfortunately, they are very exact too, that's their promise, so, you won't lift the 1/24 scale hood and find a supercharger, but they may make up for that with a Danbury "title/certificate of origin", and this version of the MM may come with a genuine build number!

Wouldn't it be a real hoot, if Danbury's sales numbers exceeds LMs?

oh...maybe not...

[tetsu]

I'd definitely put one of those on my birthday list! :)

Johnny

[Mikeenh]

Count me in for two. They do great work!

[hrtn_monky]

Let me join the list of would buys....

:D

[gja]

I will definitely buy at least 1 !

[smith5365]

o.k. I'm in. I'll put it up on top of my book shelft next to my '66 Shelby GT-350 and the '64 Shelby Cobra 427S/C. More drooling on the floor in front of them won't change the stains on the carpet that much. Just don't tell my wife when I buy it.

Bill Smith

[grzellmer]

Count me in - For 2 off um.

Z

[JohnnyB]

I'm in too! I've got about 50 assorted 1/24 diecast cars from Danbury & Franklin Mints. Mostly classic 50's and 60s muscle cars.....

[JamesHecker]

Oh yea...that's a definate must have!

[marauder1]

I would probably buy 2, one for the house and one to put on display at shows:)

[Macon Marauder]

Sounds great! Count me in.

[Murader03]

Me too! two! Should have started a poll on this one! Would have been easier on the server......

[Logan]

It'd be a pretty cool little model... :) Count me in.

[drobin]

Can't Wait!!!!!! Count me in for one (1). Black only please........

[MAD-3R]

It would be on my gift list.

[Bigdogjim]

Big Dog want in on this also! Need to be BLACK to match our cars! They can always do a second model in colors! Thanks for thinking of us.

[seabreeze]

Dear Santa,
Please put a Danbury Marauder in my stocking as soon as they are available. For the price of (3) Precious Moments figurines I'd otherwise give my lovely bride, I'll go for a MM on my desk, to go with my screen saver and desktop background. The She of We will understand, I'm sure!!
Great Idea, keep 'em coming.

[Spectragod]

Wow, this thread is old... I am curious, how many of today's members would pay for a Danbury of their beloved Marauder.

I have several of their re-creations, they are all well done, I would certainly entertain 1 of each color of the Marauder. They could make more money if, after they offered the models, to offer mods for them as well.:D

[TAKEDOWN]

Nothing wrong with a comeback like this one.

ALL IN... with multiple purchases as long as they're the larger car models!

[88LTDCV351]

Why not 1/18 scale? Either way, sounds cool. I'd get one.

[CBT]

Danbury Mint crap? Pass....

[yjmud]

I would be in for one
as long is not red

[fadetoblack]

I'm in for two!

[clmrt]

In for 1 and it's gotta be black!

[NavySeabee]

I'll take two!!

[NavySeabee]

I'll take two!!

Gotta be DTR!

[marauder21]

Tempting....so tempting actually haha do you have an exact price/deadline??

[DOOM]

I'm in!!!!!!

[FF1077]

If Danbury can do a Marauder that has lots of detail I would be in for two.
If Danbury wants to pass I would contact GMP.

GMP did a 1:18 scale 1984 Mustang SVO several years ago. It was a limeted production run as I recall. I have one and the detail is excellent.

Ford made fewer SVO's than they did Marauders and GMP was able to find a profitable market for the SVO models.

[Ms. Denmark]

Are they (Danbury Mint) that bad? Well, maybe/hopefully a company finds interest, if not the 1/64 MARAUDER scale will do for now!

All I have done so far is send a letter that's the best i can do for now but the members on the site will be first to know if it's going to be a go or not .
