    It looks great! But $89.00 is very steep for a 1/64th die cast, especially in this economy. I realize all the research and development that went into this new tool, but still.....

    I'm saving what little I have for the FDNY Marauder II mold next year...hope it is affordable.

    But do I wait, because prices always significantly go down it seems in a few months, or it sells out.....

    Seth, I know the price is a little steep but that rig is a must have for my FDNY collection. I love the older ALF's. This release is limited to 4,000 pieces. I would say wait and see if the price comes down a bit but there is a chance it may sell out being an FDNY piece and also because the ALF TDA is a first for Code 3.

    If you are into diecast fire apparatus, you have to check out Code 3's latest release. Today they just released FDNY Ladder 103 which is a 1968 American LaFrance series 900 100 foot tractor drawn aerial. It's a brand new mold for Code 3 and I think they did an excellent job on this rig. I just ordered mine. You can check it out at www.code3.net. In my opinion this is one of the nicest Code 3 releases in a long time.
