VERY limited edition “Green Machine”. Packaged 1 per 48 unit cases of Muscle Car Garage, these Green Machines’ make up only 2% of GreenLight’s 1:64 scale production run

dinograz 01-16-2006, 03:50 PM oh I need to get me a '71 Camaro green machine....
yoodz 01-16-2006, 10:30 PM Are the Green Machines GreenLight's version of a chase car?
69Stang 01-16-2006, 10:43 PM OK someone has to say it....I'm "green" with envy! sorry
2%...Thats pretty rare, but if there is one in aevery 4 cases....is that really 2%? Cool car though.
Swifty 01-17-2006, 01:03 AM Sweet! I like that the bonus cars are going to be alternate colors (even if that color is green).
Superbird77 01-17-2006, 02:38 AM Looks beautiful!
Drdealone 01-17-2006, 05:42 AM Russ,
Will they produce a Green Machine for every car in each series or just pick
one for each series? I have one of the Corvettes and the Camaro and want to know if there are others? Please advise.

For the Muscle Cars, theres 100 of them for each casting.
So they made them for the Corvettes too? I couldn't tell from the press release. Cool!
I can't wait for my case. They're supposed to get here tomorrow! (Thanks Russ! :thumbsup:)
Dead Dude 01-17-2006, 12:35 PM 2%...Thats pretty rare, but if there is one in aevery 4 cases....is that really 2%? Cool car though.
4 cases x 12 cars = 1 in 48.
Milezone 01-17-2006, 12:35 PM I am not sure of exact numbers other than to tell you they told us 1 Green Machine is in a master case (4 complete sets), and yes the Corvette series has them as well. As well there will be a Green Machine for each casting. Hope that helps.

midtown 01-17-2006, 01:56 PM help me with my bad math
30000 cars total run
1 in 48 is a GM
= 625 GM
= 52 GM's per casting?
--------------------------------
2% of 30,000 = 600 GM's
600/12 = 50 GM's
= 50 GM's per car
YellowBronc 01-17-2006, 01:58 PM help me with my bad math
24000 cars total run
1 in 48 is a GM
= 500 GM
= 41.6 GM's per casting?
2% of 24,000 = 480 GM's
480/12 = 40 GM's
= 40 GM's per car
I thought the total run #'s were around 5000 for each car, 2500 for each color ? :confused:
moparmarc 01-17-2006, 02:03 PM Sweet! I remember in 1995 When the ROund 1 Muscle cars came out From JL!
Been a long time Since I got Excited over a New Release and more important a New Company!

Thats rare alright.
Milezone 01-18-2006, 12:19 PM Hey Guys,
The cars are a 2,500 run per vehicle which includes series 2 and series 3. So yes them green's seem quite rare.

Dead Dude 01-18-2006, 12:52 PM I went downstairs, checked for a package and went to read the paper.
I come to my computer after 15 minutes or so, and it says it was delivered while I was reading the paper!
I quickly ran to the door and brought in my package and opened it up! To my pleasant surprise there was a green glow at the far end of the box and upon inspection it turned out to be a Green Machine identical to the one that started this thread!
Z28 Camaro in the red car's packaging.
Thank's Russ!
I'm split about opening these up cause I have very little display room at the moment, but I really want to get some pictures.
