    i sent ya a PM but for anybody else wondering...

    somebody posted a few months back that Maisto was going to make the 04 HD diecasts, rather than Ertl who has made the 00-03. This is definately good IMO because their attention to detail is much better than ERTL.

    Not sure on a release date yet, but i'll post up when i find out

    not sure, i can check one of the boxes from one of my other maisto 1/18th scale diecasts and check if you want.

    probably is though, it wouldn't suprise me. they are one of the best major brand 1/18th scale diecasts out there though IMO without getting into really expensive brands( out of the 20-40 dollar range)

    Yeah, a guy I visit in Witchia KS runs a store called www.automobiliausa.com he has a store pretty much dedicated to die casts. He said that the Maisto change would be a great thing... & he hopes all of the Ford Die Casts go that way.

    He said the worst is the Hot Wheels stuff..

    If anyone stumbles on to one... pick it up... I will overnight payment to you. I really want one for the collection.

    will do Rob. My buddy at the dealership calls me up whenever he gets a new ford collection catalog in and lets me order at dealer cost with free shipping. I will order an extra 04 HD for you if you didn't get one by the time the new catalogs are out

    That was quick!
    They received final approval from Harley-Davidson today, at retailers in 6-8 weeks, we'll see I guess.
    There are no plans for an 05 version unfortunatly.
