I was in WM today and I saw 2 new 1:24 Cherries cars. I believe they're new as I have not seen them talked about here or seen them at WM before.

The 1st new Cherries car I saw was a red diecast 1940 Ford, with opening doors and hood, and having a detailed interior. This was not a model you assemble, it was fully put together. Price was just under $10.00.

The 2nd new Cherries 1:24 car I saw was, I think it was a Focus?, not sure, but it was one of those ugly little cars I never buy. It was yellow, and probably had opening doors and hood too.

These 2 cars were not R/C cars, but fully assembled cars. I don't know if they had steerable front wheels, I guess that's possible. I left them both on the shelf as I only collect 1:64 cars.

These sound to me like old castings in new boxes. I have both in the old Motormax boxes. The Focus is a decent casting and the Ford is actually a custom with a '39 Chevy grille.
