1:24 scale diecast and remote control SKY

Received in the mail today a welcome to Saturn ownership and being among the first to order a SKY (hey, who cares if they're six months late!?!) catalog with a "wallet key" in case I lock myself out. Also enclosed was a "2006 SKY SIGNATURE COLLECTION' brochure with SKY items for sale. On the back cover is a silver pearl SKY (real car) with the following text:

Coming in 2006.
Went to the website listed http://www.saturncollection.com but no doecast or r/c car listed there yet. It has to be getting closer!

Anyone else get this catalog?

Did not receive mine...but the postman always rings twice...I have a postwoman...she rings more than twice...guess she is waiting for her christmas gratuity....anyone else want to ring my bell?

This is an udpate...received mine today...the key does not start the car...there is no computer chip in it...why do we need the key...on star opens the door without a key...but it is a good Public Relations ploy...and it does sell christmas/chanakah gifts.

Alright, I'm jealous! I want a key and catalog! I know someone mentioned this was for folks who got their Sky early on. I didn't get mine until September, so I was wondering...has anyone who got one that late received the catalog?

I got mine this morning...

I made sure I left the catalogue out for others to see (Christmas shoppers... If you get my drift.)

Got my gold key today as well along with the signature collection catalog. How interesting when I went to the web site. No Sky tee shirts listed, no Sky scale models and the customer service e-mail didn't work either but hey maybe there's a wait list for this stuff too. Probably have to start a thread about scale model image, build, and delivery codes.

SOME STUFF I HAVE FOUND!

I believe the company that is making the remote control SKY is "New Bright Ind. They make the "Sol" now. I have e-mailed them asking about the SKY, hope for a reply next week.

Tee Shirts
Found a neat site "madd doggs. com" (baddbuick@aol.com) Jason or Sue. They have a SKY tee in white, light gray or black and can print your SKY in just about any color. They have tons of other CAR tees. I have already ordered 2, should be here next week. Yep, got to wait on those also

Mine was waiting for me when I got home last night from celebrating my birthday. Then I fell down the stairs. I think I broke my middle finger. Stay sober, kids!

Got mine too. I guess it's nice so you don't HAVE to call On-Star (or if you're as clumsy as I am and will wind up locking your keys AND your cell phone in the car in the most desolate place you can possibly find...it'll happen...I know it...).
