Just a quick note on Power WAgon Models. I have now the Danbury 1/25th scale and matchbox 1/18th scale WDX trucks. Good points: For the Danbury model: color appears correct shade, very nice detail of cab interior, engine, drive train. bad points: wrong overal shape of hood ( it slopes) and sits too low in front, cost ($120.00) Matchbox good points: cost (under $25.00) correct hood, cute, good dtail given its size. Bad points: size precludes detail, no cowl lights, spare on backwards, wrong shade of green. I like both overall. I understand a new series of old style of PW'sby First Gear is hitting the streets at 1/30 scale including a brush truck- should be interesting.
