the MB Pierce is due to be released in Batch L, which hits Nov.1 they usually dont get out too many days before then. the first version is in Batch L, the second is due in Batch C of 2009, which hits Feb. 1
Batch K from Oct. 1 still has not shown up in north Jersey. I still need 2 from Batch J! google MCCH and go to the Matchbox collectors site, then go to everything matchbox for all the details.
The only thing I keep seeing of the Matchbox Pierce Dash pumper is the drawing of it, what will appear, I'm guessing, on the package. It's the same image I've seen of it for the past several months. I don't think we'll see the actual model until it's released.
There is a photo of the new Pierce Engine posted over on the main matchbox forum in the topic on Batch "L". It looks great and looks like it might be pretty close to 1/87 too.
