    Freshier Cherries...

    For fans of this car line, there's more coming this year. Expected to arrive around mid-2007 will be a new group of 1/87th Fresh Cherries that will include:

    1974 Ford Maverick
    1971 Ford Mustang with Sportroof
    1956 Ford F100 Truck
    1940 Ford F1 Truck
    1982 Honda Accord
    1975 Honda CVCC

    Motor Max's Maurice Chan, who provided the information regarding this new group, added that each vehicle will again be offered in two colors as before. Colors for this release are being decided currently and are not yet announced.

    Future Cherries...

    Though this is just speculation and nothing officially is announced by Motor Max beyond the 2nd Release of 1/87th Fresh Cherries detailed above, there are some clues to possibilities in the company's other scale offerings.

    The 1/24th scale Fresh Cherries line includes a 1971 Mercury Comet; 1974 AMC Gremlin; 1974 Chevrolet Vega; 1974 Ford Maverick; 1974 Ford Pinto; and 1979 Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country Wagon.

    The 1/64th scale Fresh Cherries line includes a 1970 Ford Maverick; 1970 Ford Pinto; 1971 Ford Mustang Sportroof; 1974 AMC Gremlin; 1974 AMC Hornet; 1976 Chevrolet Vega; 1975 AMC Matador; 1977 Ford Mustang II; 1978 AMC Pacer; 1978 Chevrolet Chevette; 1979 Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country Wagon; and 1983 Plymouth Reliant.

    So does that mean were going to have to do a bumper swap from the comet to get a 1/24 small bumpered mav? still sounds like fun:thumbs2:
