ERTL Vega Interest/support

[MadMike]

Folks,
Shortly, I'll be getting an email address for someone who can be emailed to help convince them they may want to consider producing a Vega.

The main push for the Vega will be one of Joels Motion Vegas. But once the initial Vega is produced, it can be used to produce regular vegas, Grumpy Jenkins Vega, Vega Funny Car models (Jungle Jim, etc...). Right now, ERTL doesn't want to invest the $ necessary to produce a Vega. They don't think there is enough interest out there to justify the expense.

I know a lot of you folks surf around. I generally only stick around in here and play with Camaros, but if you know of Vega buddies, or other Chevy places who may be interested in aiding this effort, please point them to this thread.

Regards,
MadMike

Yes i would be interested, and I wish they would make all the Grumpy's Toy cars including the 70 Camaro. They've made i believe the 68 Camaro but it was a limited run and none of them hit the shelves according to E-Bay info. I think thats stupid unless your fortunate enough to have gotten one. They're going for over $100.00 on E-Bay, and so if they do produce the Vega or someday the Camaro (even better) how are we going to get in on this?

MadMike, try posting it on www.stage-1.com. They got a message board and it's pretty much active.

I would be interested in this also. I play with Vegas too. After all, they are just a baby Camaro. I like the Motion cars as well. I have a die-cast model of a 71 Motion Stage III and hope to soon find a 71 body to clone it. Know of any?
