1953

1968

1984

2003

The '53 looks way better than the other, top-up version that we saw earlier, and definately better than the Mira version. The '68 looks all right, but the other two are disappointing. hopefully the '84 and '03 are preproductions and they'll clean up some of the details.

I like the '53. I'll have to take them all out of the boxes and see what they look like up close and report back.

The car looks good in person too, I saw them yesterday. There is the standard version which goes for about $30, and a special hobby shop version for $40. The hobby version adds a removable soft top and tool chests with 50th Anniv. logos.

The 2003 doesn't have all that wierd graphic stuff on the side. Just a 50th emblem on the fender.....well, I'm speaking for the hobby edition.
