I got my preorder in too. Can't wait for these. I glad that the GN series is not done yet! Other than obtaining the yellow Drag GN, my other desire would be an 81(?) convertible GN pace car to be made in 1/18th.

The money I spent on diecast I probably could have had a full size GN.

Sorry no pic until they are here. The prototype we have has the wrong wheels. Even with an explaination I expect pics of it would confuse some people, so I'd rather not use it. The Molly Sanders Race Edition 1987 GN limited to under 1,000 will have plenty of pics available before hand and so will the WE4

With the upcoming release of the 3 car 'mini' set, all we will need are:

1/18 Strip/Street 1987 GNX,
1/18 1989 Turbo Trans Am (We can still wish, can't we?),
1/18 1982 Grand National,
1/18 1987 Turbo T (Different two-tone optioned cars).

I believe people will agree, any of the above mentioned diecasts will be a welcome to any Turbo Buick diecast collection.

I agree with the last three cars. ^^^

Throw in a 1981 Indy Pace Car and I would be a happy boy.

I placed my order for the set on May 9/10 and never recieved a email confirming order. I have ordered from you before and received great service. Is an email going to be sent when the order is shipped? My email address: tantan@datasync.com

Thanks, James Lowery
