Chevrolet has an order up online for two model diecast cars in the 1:64 size scale. The cars are modeled after Bumblebee from the 2007 Live action Transformers movie. Of course the models are of the 1971 Camaro and 2009 Concept Camaro. Price for the set is at $12.00 USD down from $12.99.

1:64 Scale is pretty small. They are about the size of Spychangers.

Yeah, probably Hot Wheel size. Nice Collectors piece though. Funny you should say spychangers, I just bought my first ones today. Suprisingly I really like them. Family Dollar for 2 bucks.

I just wish I could find the '71 diecast by itself somewhere...I already got the 1:64 scale concept one (like a half-dozen versions, including a cop car one and the Bee painted one), but would like to find one of the older car by itself :-(

If it comes with that black display stand, I'm all for it. Small scale though.

Yeah, it'd be cool if they were spychangers.

When I sent in the news I said that it's not custom faded, but I guess since I didn't post it they got rid of it. Ah well, at least I found the news, always makes me happy :grin:
