    TOMICA, DINKY and CORGI were my favorite toys growing up. Hot Wheels and Matchbox were great too. I was born in 1971 and most toys were of much better than they are today, with exceptions. I have been to 47 of the lower 48 states and I can say police/fire/emergency vehicles are very colorful from state to state and city to city. Absolutely beautiful custom models!

      So it's not only me who thinks they were better than today. I miss Corgi, Dinky. *sigh*

    Get yourself a couple of pairs of 'Sprue' or 'Edge' cutters, Rob - I was wincing as you took the craft knife to the TAXI sign. The cutters have small, sharp ends that you can snip items like that very safely, with a really clean, precise cut - they look like very small wire cutters. I've used them for years, and wouldn't be without them. Dave, on his 'Toy Polloi' channel uses them often, if you want to see what I'm on about.
    And yet another blinding result. Nice one.

  • @ZGryphon
    @ZGryphon 4 роки тому +6

    That color came out really well. Feels like a strange color choice for a police vehicle--around here, red paint and red lights are both reserved for fire/rescue-type services--but hey, I'm not in charge of Minnesota.
    BTW, your surmise about the interiors is correct--back in those days, cop cars didn't just have the cheapest interiors available, the manufacturers actually made an _even worse_ interior trim level that was only available for fleet orders. :)

    These Dodges look awesome, great paintjobs and perfect wheels. 😎
    Always liked Tomicas and US Police cars, especially 60's to 80's.
    These cars look very much what Greenlight offers and it ain't bad thing.

    Super. You did an excellent job. One small suggestion- I would dab a little white square on each tailight (back up lights) that would bring out the rear of the car. Only a suggestion.

    I like the shift in your music by the way. It makes the video seem longer since I'm not listening to my cue when you drop it in the caustic soda. I think I listen to a certain part of the usual tune and wake up looking to see 💯% PAINT REMOVAL! 😏
