              Would the vans all have looked better with black wheels? Probably. Almost definitely. Was there some sort of cost savings involved in making the pieces all one color? Probably. Almost definitely. Was the difference 10 dollars as seems to be suggested by the sale of black wheels now? Probably not.

                  Well they are offering more colors of van bodies for one thing. The black and yellow Van's had not been previously offered undecorated. And they now have all roof colors available. They had been out of red and white roofs and they had not offered blue or purple roofs before. So basically it's me noticing that they have expanded offerings and restocked. Which is a good thing.

                    well since they seem to be able to produce just wheels in black, then the4y should have been able to do that with the colored vans, did it for the Batlab and the rest. Seems like any small cost would have been outweighed by actually selling more vans that don't require paint to get black tires.

                      Thanks for the clarification, I had missed some options. Hopefully they will restock white vans. With front badges.

                        It would be neat if they could make the Mystery Machine for the Scooby Doo line, although it may not be able to fit all 5 of them.

                          ^I can hardly believe they haven't offered that, seems a no-brainer.

                            Well they do have the blue van and blue roof now. Making the stickers isnt that difficult. And yes they do have white vans.

                              And I think the 4 people and dog would fit in the van okay if u take out the rotator stem.
