with all the whining during selections voting about not getting cars with redlines and the torsion suspension, they sure laid down on this one... looks like the loudmouths are a very small minority after all..
Seems to be correct. It is still a shame that Real Riders lost out on the Mach 1 when it had a seemingly comfortable lead. Then it didn't even receive as many orders as the Nomad with Real Riders, which arguably each vehicle should have had the wheels switched and would have probably sold more.
Orange Mach 1 with redlines, or virtually any other color with Real Riders. It's a no brainer to me. Hope Mattel is still making money on the deal, but I think orders are down because of the, how should I put it, "interesting" components being voted on by the voters.
Watch out for the upcoming Packard sale. Could be the lowest production car ever released by the RLC. However, some might buy it just in case it's a low production car, thereby increasing the very production they wish to limit.
