And the new ones are...............

Re: And the new ones are...............

Nice release, but no thanks......

Re: And the new ones are...............

Good curve ball from Code 3 - didn't see those coming! And I am glad a mold doesn't get dumped as "too old"!

Re: And the new ones are...............

WHAT! No FDNY, Code 3's demise is surely around the corner

Re: And the new ones are...............

I feel they did a good job again. The "lime" unit is really sharp. But I will pass. Really want that Tarrytown unit to be released.

Re: And the new ones are...............

I like the Quantum's, really like the lime, but not for $49 buck (club price). They are getting to high for an engine for me to buy. Granted it is only limited to 750, but still too much for me when I have a number of Quantums already.

Maybe if it had been something using the new raised roof mold.

At this price it is going to have to be a new mold for me to bite.

Re: And the new ones are...............

Hey Guys,

I'm sorry, but I am just not impressed enough to buy the Glendale pieces...

I do not like the "New" Code 3 Collectibles or their new way of doing the releases...

I also will not be buying the Tarrytown Tower...

Just my 2 cents...

Stay safe and God bless,
John

Re: And the new ones are...............

Bought a lime one to sell or trade later, but no real interest otherwise.

Re: And the new ones are...............

I think I'll pass too. Money is tight, and I already have one of the first Quantums, so who needs anouther one.

Re: And the new ones are...............

Another yawner...but I expect they will sell out, due to the small release numbers. Granted, I don't have a great interest in modern "breadbox" fire trucks anyway, but I used to at least anticipate the quarterly release list with some degree of enthusiasm, because I thought there'd be something unusual in there, like a Mack, Crown, tanker, or - oh fervent hope - police vehicle. Now, with one release a month (even if released in two different colors), I might start taking as little notice of the new release announcements as I do the Code 3 bulletin board.

Re: And the new ones are...............

I don't know if you guys looked close enough - but that is a new mold. Compare a picture of one of the earlier quantums to these and the Glendales have a newly tooled flat-roof cab. The body is also re-tooled.

Re: And the new ones are...............

I noticed the trend away from the normal "California" style cut away doors, so they can get parked up close to the armco, and still get out.
How do they manage it with these quantoms, its a long climb down if that step dont go down??
Looks like a whole new training day, just for parking, LOL

Re: And the new ones are...............

Yellow one is sold out.......

Re: And the new ones are...............

Hello,

I went for a lime, pricey for a Engine but I like it and thats all that counts at the end of the day!!

Also hope the Tarrytown gets released.
