QUOTE: Originally posted by Jetrock QUOTE: Originally posted by bryanbell I understand that is the "era" that most of the modeling demographic was growing up and that is what most people tend to model. I however am a child of the 80's, that is my "era" and I too would like to see Mickey D's and the like produced. (Its not just a southern thing, I live in the home of the Arches, Chicago and that is what we call it too) um, actually McDonald's started in southern California... there is a model of White Castle available, however. The main issue with things like models of McDonald's is LICENSING. Anything trademarked requires a licensing agreement, and they aren't cheap for something like McDonald's. my call: More STREETCARS--historic AND modern. I like 'em all--Jewett, Brill, PCC, Duewag, Siemens, CAF...

QUOTE: Originally posted by jsoderq Macdonalds was done once and the company (Lifelike, I think) got sued bigtime. They will not license a model. Much of the other stuff is out there. You have to be willing to pay for it. If you need some oddball loco, lay out the cash. That is what brass is for. SD40-2 have been done to death. If you don't like them doesn't mean we need another.
