New Diecast

Would there be any interest in a new 4Runner Diecast group buy offering? It will take me 3 months to import them. Cost for each would increase to approx. $11/Unit for YT members (plus shipping). If volume is high enough its possible to do them for $10/unit.

It is similar to the current 1:38 Sport model diecast with the following upgrades...

Collector type quality in a clear plastic display stand with plaque
More authentic paint colors, (black sport and blue sport not previously available)
Painted bumpers and grille
Black/Chrome running boards
Oak interior
Factory type wheels
Factory type rear spoiler
Freewheeling (no pull back motor)
Limited Edition...not currently sold in the USA.
Not sure if doors open at this point.

No, no money will be taken up front. I'm just seeing if there are people out there who would want this new version. It will take up to 3 months for it to come in if we get a good response. The only colors available (on this new diecast) are those shown above. Thx.
