I bought the Escort, Bobcat, Tempo, Gremlin, Pinto and Pacer in all the variations, 4 each, when they went on sale at Wal Mart. I love FC's. I wish they wouldn't have ended that line.

These are the best. Everytime I look at my sets I'm glad I bought them.

Our WMs closed them all out months ago, so I got my latest 1/87s from walthers.com

They had two different classic Ford pick-ups ('40s & '50s), a Honda Accord & Civic and the new Ford Granada and Maverick, all in two colors each (except for one of the Ford trucks). You'll have to email and ask about the color availability, since they aren't listed separately by color on the site. Prices might seem high at first, but just think of all the gas you save by not having to drive around looking for them. Enjoy!

I definitely agree about the gas savings. I'm gonna have to go online for more FC's, as well.

Hi all,

I contacted walthers.com about purchasing the Ford Tempo from their fresh cherries collection. They do have it in stock, however, I was told that they don't accept color specific orders. Any advice on how I could possibly get around this issue? (I have my heart set on a silver one).

Thanks!

I have ordered from Walthers before, and whenever I've ordered 2 of the same car, I've gotten one in each color. I can't guarantee that they always do this, but it happened to me 3 or 4 times.

Got this today. I love it. I don't collect this brand or scale, but I couldn't pass up the original Civic.

I wish I could get a whole bunch of those civics cheap, but they never hit the Wal-Marts around here....
