.... they've seen a thing or two. But up until recently, this is something that I have never seen in essentially 20 years of collecting retrobird diecasts:

This Farmers Insurance version is the 8th retrobird promotional model, 6 diecasts, 1 plastic remote control and 1 made of resin, that I have in my collection. Up until a few days ago, I had no idea it existed. Every time I find a previously unknown collectible, I can't help but wonder if there are more out there we don't know about or if this will be the last one in my collection.
I have to admit that I'm thrilled it's a red one!
For those that are curious, here's the list of known retrobird promotional models:
1:32 Torch Red resin model driven by the Geico Gecko
1:25 Inspiration Yellow Hertz Limited Edition Hardtop
1:25 Thunderbird Blue Dealer Track 2003 Hardtop
1:25 Evening Black Ford Credit Chicago East 2002 Hardtop
1:24 Torch Red PPG Hardtop
1:24 Torch Red CRABAR/GBF Convertible
1:24 Torch Red Farmers Insurance Hardtop
1:16 Torch Red Stewart's Root Beer Thunderbird Roadster Radio Control
