I’ve collected a few Black Bandit series years ago but had never opened a few of them. One of them is this Dodge Ramcharger and I recently decided to DLM it. I then made a startling discovery that most of you may have already known about it.

A working (removable) roof.

This model does not have any opening features but this is a nice concept that Greenlight came up with.

Even though the main color is black, it has a semi two tone paint where the top half is matte black while the lower half is semi gloss. For my preference I’d rather have a full gloss black on the body and matte on the roof.

As in most Greenlight model, it comes with metal body and chassis except the roof which is plastic.

Although the bumpers are molded with the body and lights painted instead of separate parts, the detailed on the exterior and interior are still nice for a 1/64 so I will give it a 5 out of 5. 4.9 in play value for adults due to the removable roof but no other moving parts. 4.5 in play value for kids due to the possibility of losing the roof after playing with it and 5 for quality are there are no QC issues.
