GMP goes “stealth” with the Plymouth Blackbird Roadrunner
Most of the collectors and enthusiasts that frequent DiecastAUDIO tend to lean towards smaller scale die-cast. If you’ve stepped through my recently posted photo set from the GMP Experience during the Hotlanta Convention, then I’d say that there might be more than a small chance you’d like to see more of their affordable, highly detailed, larger scale pieces. Yes, the term “affordable” certainly means different things to different collectors, but when it comes to large scale die-cast, you’ll be challenged to find a piece with this level of detail and quality for GMP’s average starting price of around $100 to $150 (USD). If you haven’t had any prior exposure to GMP’s product line, then rest assured that you’ll get ramped up by seeing the occasional post (or more!) here on DCA.

For starters, I’d like to introduce you to the GMP 1970 Plymouth “Blackbird” Roadrunner. This Stealth Fighter 1:18 scale piece as a plethora of features that include a:
- - Serialized Plate
- - Opening Hood, Doors and Trunk
- - Real Metal Leaf Springs
- - Functional Suspension
- - Rotating Driveshaft
- - Plumbed and Wired Engine
- - Tilting Front Seats
- - Fabric Seat belts
- - Removable Rear Side Windows
- - Opening Glove Box
- - Moveable Shifter
- - Poseable Steering
Needless to say, those are some pretty cool features – most of which could ONLY be done in large scale. If you’ve ever pondered adding some larger scale pieces to your collection, then I definitely recommend that give GMP a look. You won’t be disappointed.
Stay tuned for more GMP here on DiecastAUDIO.

WOW, not much more has to be said. Looks great
I actually just received my GMP Blackbird today and it is a fantastic piece. It feels like I could get in and fire her up and zoom on down the road. I actually own a large collection of GMP diecast cars and I have never been disappointed. They really produce a top quality, detailed and highly collectible product. I am looking forward to the next release.
