Revell 1/8 deuce--different boxes, same kits inside?


Recommended Posts

The bean counter (wife) is actually willing to release some funds to me despite knowing I'll beat feet down to the LHS. I've been eyeing the Revell 1/8 duece kit on recent trips there. The problem is that now they have two of them, and the boxes are different. One of them features a blue one and has a banner saying something like "75th Anniversary" and the other one shows one in a reddish color with a top on it and says something like "Street Rod". Are the contents the same?

Actually there have been quite a few issues of the Big Deuce.

These are all pretty much the same, Pontiac motor, mag wheels, etc.

The newer releases have the flathead, aluminum hub caps, etc.

Al, that first box is hilarious! It looks like the guy is saying "Alright enough lookin' now go get me some dinner!" I must be tired, cuz I looked at that and just cracked up. Anyway, Hobby Lobby is the way to go on this as was stated before. With the 40% you save you can get all the other supplies, that's what I did!
