    Ligier and Honda.

    Jada ought to look into doing a "race cars of the '70s" line or something. Some of these car companies don't want to be associated with Transformers specifically, but they wouldn't have a problem with being in a line of race cars, and all we'd really need are Reprolabel sigils. It would be a good way to sidestep all the drama of "but I don't want my car promoting war toys" argument.

    I suppose if they wanted to they could do a whole bunch of things not even based on real vehicles.
    If they have involvement to Marvel - I guess a Disney License isn't out of the Question.
    I want a toy Last Star Fighter sometime.
    heck give me the ship from The Flight of the Navigator too - it's only needs to be made in two pieces and chromed

    Walmart, Target, Meijer to name a few. They usually go for about $20.00 apiece for the 1/24 scale and about $8.00 for the 1/32 scale, not sure about the hot wheels sized ones I think they usually go for around $5.00. You can also find them on amazon and a few other places online but you will end up paying more for them.

    This is a great idea! Hope they continue this line with more G1 Autobots.

    Also amazing to see they're doing KITT; I was getting worried that Knight Rider nostalgia was over with.

    I remember when bumblebee could not be a beetle because volkswagon did not want to be associated with war toys. licences can change over time they should make what they can and hope to get the licenses later since its a pure car line I imagine it would be a lot easier than cars that transform into robots with guns

    Oh yes, I forgot about Skids entirely, good call. I figured with Mirage they didn't strictly need the Ligier license, but then again they may as well, that way they can use the livery that the original Diaclone design was stealing anyway.
