  Franklin Mint 1:24 1935 Mercedes-Benz 500 K Roadster- Blue (Revised & Reissued 4/98) diecast car
 
 
 

This is a new version of FM's very first replica, issued back in 1983. The Design Staff, in addition to a color change to BLUE, has added etched metal wheels, improved the body fittings, improved the body trim by the use of tampo printing instead of foil, the interior is painted instead of molded plastic, and the hood ornament and grille are now etched metal. We also understand that when current stocks of the RED model are depleted, that version will be switched to this new format also. We are told that it is now available at your Franklin Mint stores. The part number is B11 XM 23 - The cost is $135 + S&H (5/9/98)
