They should have made it black and given it the Warlock treatment.

Or they could have made it black and had it been the Midnite Express.

Anything but the color purple as the truck was never painted that color back in 1978

 

[duncan]

I'll probably never buy one just because it isn't 'authentic'.

Hear that Mattel? Get real! lol

Nice 1978 Dodge Lil Red Express Pickup Truck Find Congrats.:wave::thumbsup:

 

[Eviltwin678]

Great find on the pickup.
I agree that the recolor should have been black for the Warlock model, maybe they'll do a third color and it will be in black.

That truck is a fail. It says Li'l RED Express Truck right on the door, but it's purple.

 

[CraigO]

gotta love that the description is the lil RED express, only the warlock treatment woulsd be an acceptable side color, but i think we all remember the gray moon cars, now don't we?(as a rule, moon cars are painted yellow, or at least used to be)

That would be a great looking truck with the door tampos gone. As is, it doesn't make sense.

But the Warlock wouldn't be right either as the Warlock didn't have the exhaust stacks.



I am sure this casting will see at least a dozen different recolors, and probably even a premium line release or two.

 

[slythorne]

The purple color can vary on this release, I have found some that are a really really dark purple, almost black, and others that aren't so dark.

 

[Eviltwin678]

Thanks for the reminder on Warlock, I knew that one didn't have them but I don't think the stacks can be eliminated because they are part of the interior.

 

[Wyatt]

Any color is fine for me. I think it looks good.

 

[harry_ca]

i'll take it in any colour it comes in ...send them my way!

 

[chorton49]

They could do it in black and name it

"Midnite Express Truck"

I just saw a couple pictures of one on a google search.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't make a whole new model just for a new colour. that would seem rather inconvenient.

So why not the Midnite Express?
