Hi guys,

I'm glad I didn't bite on the New Frontier Collectibles LACoFD KME, based on what guys have written. I just hope no one got scammed.

Manny's Diecast is showing another one due out later this year, maybe by "Iconic Replicas", that looks pretty good. Nothing is as nice as the ones from Fire Replicas, though. Here's the link to the ones from Manny's, http://mannysdiecast.com/ic.html Scroll down to view. Let me know what you think? The stripe is wrong, but I imagine that is easily fixed with one of Rich's LACoFD sheets.

It looks pretty good. If the price is right I would pick one up. If nothing more for the cab. I hope they can make it work. I bet the price will be around $100 based on the others Iconic has released.

I'm guessing they will be around that amount too. Not thrilled that they got the stripe wrong, but easily fixed thanks to Rich. Otherwise, it does look pretty good.

I just wish I could afford Fire Replicas releases. Their LACoFD KMEs and the LAFD Pierces are really great. I love their Type-3s too.

I like them as well.. I only have purchased a few. Probably a good thing they aren't cheaper. I would be broke.

That's exciting news. They'll hopefully look good next to the Code 3 LA County Units.

They're also listed on Iconic's website now.
