!%# is this? Cool, yes....but it certainly does not belong in BTM.

Don't get me wrong, I think its really cool. But it has no business being in the Big Time Muscle line. They should do a new pedal car series or something.

I think it's cool,besides,if HW can do a shopping cart and a toilet,what's wrong with JADA doing a pedal car.

I must say, that I saw these a while ago and really liked the idea. I personally thought it was a fresh & innovative approach to diecast. I agree that they
should NOT have been released in BTM and they should not have used the same ole "racing graphics" that Jada keeps using.
The bodies look a little funky and cartoonish but I believe it's because they are short staffed(only have 1 guy in the "design" dept.) I for one, look forward to more of these, "But make them look like pedal cars... not muscle cars." Because before we know it they will be putting blowers on them. Just my 
Peace

I agree that it's a pretty cool idea but not in the BTM line.
I'll probably get it.

OK, I guess it
 ed me off because they used a space up in the BTM line, which is becoming limited already with just the 6 car series, with an item that
doesn't belong there. To further the insult, it's a new design. It would have been nice if Jada had created a new 1/64 car instead of a 1/64 model of a
toy car. Fine, go ahead and make the pedal car, but don't use up a slot in the BTM line.
I like real pedal cars. If I had the room, I would have a couple displayed in my collection. Brad

I think it's cool. If it doesn't belong in the BTM line, then where? Do you really think a whole line of diecast pedal-cars would be a hot seller?
It's cool as a one-off... an entire line of different ones wouldn't do to well, I don't think. The only other place I can see for it is the regular
Dub City line.. it is, however, a pedal car based on a muscle car (or, i guess i should say - a diecast car based on a pedal car based on a muscle car...)
