The Reel Rides cars have begun to hit stores, but the reviews have been mixed. The biggest complaint seems to be that the scale of the 1/64 cars is inconsistent (for example, the Porsche could comfortably fit in the bed of a Chevy C10...it's a small car, but not
that small).
Well, the folks at RR have heard the comments. From their latest newsletter:
"You asked for it and you got it. Some of our observant collectors noticed our 1:64 scale cars were slightly larger than normal. We appreciate the feedback and will convert all future releases to the REAL 1:64 scale."
Kudos to RR for taking the advice of fans to heart and using it to improve their product. Now, I'll just have to see how they do with their 1/24 scale line...
