Found this guy at a Dollar General with the Streets of Fire, it is the same as the Ford Escort that I bought in the prior batch. The line was called City Cruiser and must have been an older line of cars that was replaced by the Streets of Fire. Simply by the fact it is a convertible and another Mini Cooper was the selling points. The color I admit is just UGLY, really ORANGE? I never have seen a Mini this color before.
Here is the new Mini with the old one. The new Streets of Fire is much larger than the City Cruiser series. Still against a 28mm the City Cruiser to me is more on target for scale matching. Both boxes claim 1:43.
Here is the new guy. I assure you the color is MUCH brighter in person that is almost a neon color. My camera toned down the color or perhaps it was the light in my hobby room, maybe both.
That looks pretty orange to me as it is. And brighter you say-holy cow. It will look good on the gaming table though as you won't be able to miss it!
ReplyDeleteYea, it is that "holy cow" orange. Guess it would stand out and in Supers games when it gets thrown a orange mini would be scary as hell!
DeleteNice find mate. As Anne says it will stand out
ReplyDeleteYea, I have to see if I can find another for someone else on the LAF forums...it seems the older Dollar Generals here have the good finds.
