I know there's no article yet, so I'm just using the talkpage as a sounding board. Is this an article that would be worth starting? I personally think there's a lot of great material we can discuss here, from the first unlicensed but blatantly matched Diaclone toys, to the first lawsuits from auto manufacturers, to the initial deals Hasbro and Takara worked out with Chrysler allowing the Dodge Viper in RiD, and the subsequent licensing talks and back-and-forth regarding Alternators/Binaltech. It'd be a great forum to discuss the difficulties with Volkswagen as well. Also a good place to list all toys with officially licensed vehicle modes.
