Was going to start my own thread on this topic found found this one doing a search
I too have been looking for a mini-me for my Patriot! Matchbox has made the Compass and the Hurricane concept but still no Patriot!! What gives!? I think I'm gonna send an email to Matchbox, somebody needs to talk some sense into them.

Hi there! I don't know if this is the proper email to send requests. I just wanted to let you know that you guys make a great product for us Jeep enthusiasts. You selection of Matchbox Jeep vehicles make great decorations for me and great toys for my nephew.
I would like to request that you make a Jeep Patriot. This vehicle is rapidly growing in popularity and you may find a market for it among collectors. Besides, you made all the other Jeeps! Why not a Patriot!!??
Thank you for your time,
-Joe

Maybe a slightly larger scale diecast would be even better... say 1:43 scale or something (Maisto, Minichamps, etc). I think the quality would be better, and the replica is more realistic... the Compass that they have looks far from the real thing.
