I like the acid cars, but that's pretty pricy for a tube with wheels. I really hope they upgrade the model with etched details.

They still look like a MDC car with better printing. Photo-etched platforms look like plastic injection moulding with small one piece overlay

OLD MDC car. I doubt it will have body mounted couplers. It is a good stand-in for their acid car they have in HO. I just wish they added all the missing detail.

Missing detail... would be all new tooling  :)
