they are early xk type falcons our early falcons were virtually the same as the yankee ones in the early falcon years someone else with a bit more ford knowledge would be able to shed more light.

Nope,

Sunstars are probably aimed at kids. They lack realism and things like the chrome work, interior, engine detail are poor.

You get what you pay for I suppose.

I've looked at the Sun Star models of WRC cars before. To say I was less than impressed would be about right.
That said, if the model they make is all that's available then I'm betting they would look pretty good.

I have a couple of the Sunstar 71 Mach 1 Mustangs and they arent too bad. They are definitely cheaper but hey what do you expect for 50 odd dollars.

Does anyone know if Sunstar is going to do a Coupe as well?

looks great to me. i am sure they will sell like hotcakes

sunstar builds the ever popular back to the future delorean models alongside their range of budget priced classics.

I got 'sucked' in to buying the Prodrive Limited Edition Petter Solberg Rally GB '03 car last year. Paid over $110 for it just to find out it was SunStar. The detail was very poor and most of the decals on the car were see through, esp. the Subaru 'swoosh' on the doors. I also got the Makinen Subaru from the same rally and they were exactly the same car down to the rear drivers side tail light having fallen out in transit but at least I only paid $50 for that one. If it is a car you just can't live without then I'd get it but I wouldn't bother otherwise. Considering they are the only ones to model most of the SWRT cars these days the quality is very poor.
