I'm not a cowardly man, but I get the feeling that thing is out to get me.

Herbie has been an elusive little car. Not that there's a shortage of VW beetles - far from it. Revell, Fujimi, Tamiya, Hasegawa, Polar Lights, Maisto, and Bburago are among the dozens of companies that make 1/24 scale versions of the famous little car in plastic and metal. The problem was that none on them made the correct year. They either made the older Beetles with oval rear windows, or the newer Beetles with larger taillights and wider license plate lights. Technically, Fabbri Editori's version is still off by two years, but it was much closer than anything that has come previously. Making things even more attractive, FE released the Beetle in the correct off-white color.
