If the Adam 12 model does see production, one of the Holy Grails will finally be available.
Hopefully in 1/50 so it displays well with the "Emergency" pieces. 1/43 would be fine, just not next to the squad & engine(s).

Re: L.A. County Engine 51

They are supposed to do one too, and an Adam-12 car may be in the works for Iconic Replicas, but I'm sure the Fire Replicas E-51 will knock it out of the park.

Re: L.A. County Engine 51

I thought I saw Iconic Replicas was producing the pumpers, as they are the squad. If it's Fire Replicas, I guess my "collection" ends with the squad. They are well outside the affordable range for me.

Where did you order yours from? I ordered from Diecast Direct which originally had an available date of January 10th, and now they say late Feb-early March :x :x :x I would have ordered from somewhere else if I would have known they were going to take so long. I got mine from Awesome Diecast.

Tonkin Replicas question.

I acquired a Tonkin Replicas 1/50 Ford utility truck. I was going to remove the "prints" & noticed they look to be stickers or decals & don't want to lift or loosen at all. Has anyone had any experience with removing graphics from their models? Stripping & repainting is, unfortunately, not an option...

Re: Iconic Replicas 1:50 1974 Dodge 300 Rescue Unit: Squad 51 / 50th Anniversary of Emergency! Edition.

Thanks for the review. Hopefully mine will arrive soon. As for the rear amber, it's a pretty easy add-on. I did it on a few FRR cars. Just a decal, a little resin, and clear amber paint. I may do that to one of the two I have. One stays untouched. I haven't decided if I want to attempt removing gra...

Re: Iconic Replicas 1:50 1974 Dodge 300 Rescue Unit: Squad 51 / 50th Anniversary of Emergency! Edition.

Mine arrived about 5 minutes ago. Very well done &, without measuring, seems good scale wise. The only thing I can see that may be an issue for someone, is the rear facing amber lenses in the light bar aren't there. All in all, well worth purchasing. I won't give away the surprises on the back of th...

Re: Iconic Replicas 1:50 1974 Dodge 300 Rescue Unit: Squad 51 / 50th Anniversary of Emergency! Edition.

I pre-ordered a squad. 1/50 is my primary scale, & 1/43 is the only other I do. Hopefully it will be scale accurate. Based on then saying available in January & the status of the "supply chain" politics, I expect maybe July. :-P The news that one of the pumpers will be out later in 2022 is encouragi...

Re: Fire Replicas June Newsletter

I'd consider the Mack R if in a blank unmarked white/red version, & I had time to save the cash before a sell out.
