Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there . . .
y just 402?

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
In the diecast world, limited edition means everything. I'd say LEs usually peak at 2000 units. Why just 402? That's something I cannot answer, but I'm sure all 402 will be spoken for, no?

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
Used to be 2500 and up, but with new releases dailey, coupled with the slow economy, 300-500 is the norm now. Even then, if a limited edition, which may require extra work, thus a higher wholesale/retail price, they really crunch the numbers before placing a order.

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
I don't think it's due to the slow economy because these numbers have existed for years. I guess it's at a point where supply, demand, cost, and price all intersect? I bet demand will be greater than this.

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
Just going on what one of the major diecast companies told me.
I am not for sure if any segment of the musclecar hobby has not been affected by the slow economy. |
Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
-----Ertl/AMT talked me into making 2000 "Red Alerts" instead of the 1000 I thought would be about right back in the late 90s. They enticed me with a decent price break on all if I did the extra thou. Sales were basicly all over around the 1000 mark, however, just as everybody had predicted. I had to discount a bunch of them to get out of that business. No regrets but it would have done better at the 1000 mark.......Bill S

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
Better hurry only 401 left. Bill S., are you still hawking the Red Alert or did Tom get a trunk load of them ? I would love to have one for my collection, who's got them?
Diego, thanks for the heads up https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif |
Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
------Chris,,, Thanks for asking! Ill have to poke around and see if I can find one with a good box. We have several but most of the ones left have slightly damaged clear plastic windows on the box, and I have no way to get any more windows. They arent bad, just not perfect. The cars are perfect, though! If I can find one with a minor prob Ill discount it deeply for you if you are interested. Toms are perfect, I believe, but I havent talked with him lately and dont know if he is letting any go.........Bill S

Just let me know. |

Re: For all you Baldwin-Motion whores out there .
Pretty cool that the Motion Camaro has the tow bar. Is that part of the model or a modification?
