[edit] Collectibles
Not every car gets made into a toy. The Gremlin was probably the most famous and most made into objects. Yet, despite the modest sales, more toys and models were made of the AMC Matador than some better selling AMC models such as the Hornet, certainly more than the striking AMC Marlin, and there are practically no known models of the slight larger AMC Ambassador.
