    Hey all, I have some good news... (GREAT NEWS!!!)
    I have been in contact with the people at Motor Max and these are a few quotes from the guy I have been speaking with...

    "Yes to new colors of the Maverick.​
    You're welcome to send images of the other colors and we will match and send to Ford for approval".:bananaman

    "Yes to 1:24. Maverick is on the top of our list to make in 1:24 also. But development takes several months, you probably won't see it until early next year if we decided to move forward".
    :bananaman :dance: :bananaman :dance: :clap: :clap: (y)

    I'm stoked to say the least!!! I'll keep the updates coming as they get to me...
    Jay.....:tiphat:

    I just wish the Cherries had the detail of the JL's ... The 1:24 may be a little cheesy looking ... but beggars can't be choosers ..... :)

    Problem is they would have to retool to get the grabber hood and spoiler. I'd also like to see a Stallion but again, they will need to redisign the existing mold. I'll bet they just repaint what they have and call it a 71-72 Grabber. But if they are going to retool, how about a Comet and Comet GT?
