Xmas edition 1:18th TR????

Is there such a thing as a "1987 Buick WE4 Turbo T - 1:18 GMP Christmas Edition"????

Are they worth anything?

The Christmas Edition car (blue 1987 Regal Turbo T, 1 of 100) is the exact same car as #8102 (1 of 1000) only difference being a special "christmas" license plate (DM logo on front, numbered plate on rear). Diecastmuscle.com had all these cars made (from GMP). The XMAS car (or "customer appreciation" car as they called it) doesn't attract a lot of attention due to it being an almost exact copy as the regular blue car, even though produced in limited quantity.

That car was a good run for DM, as they also made a 1 of 200 blue chrome version (which is very hard to get!).

All of the cars have the same inner/outer boxes. The XMAS & blue chrome editions have a sticker placed on them to designate the difference.

The regular version can be found on Ebay for $40-60. The Christmas version (last one I saw awhile back) got about $60, and the blue chrome version fetches $200+.

Some pics of all the blue cars attached! (regular, 3 XMAS, blue chrome)

BTW, if anyone has a XMAS car they'd like to sell, please let me know!

I was trying to remember the "blue chrome" one that was so hard to come by.

That blue xmas one is on EBAY now but I think I will pass.
