Platerpants Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 anybody have an idea of release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt T. Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I was talking to Dave & Art about these. Dave has to build the second test shots (the two displayed at NNLE are the first) and make sure he approves of the kit. Then it's time to talk box art & packaging. I'd guess late summer.

Whelen36 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Looking forwards to these kits, and hopefully a 4x4 will definitely follow soon after!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impcon Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I've stared at that last picture for so long that my eyes are watering - between that and the saliva that dripped onto my leyboard, I've had to change the keyboard out.. ohhhh I want a couple of those long boxes so bad that I can't see straight.....

Nate Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 The next question is: where can I get a decent Crown Vic front suspension for the popular conversion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youpey Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 does anyone know if this has a 6 or v8 in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 does anyone know if this has a 6 or v8 in it? Hate to be rude but go through this topic and you will find the answer. In short, yes, but there will be two different kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 does anyone know if this has a 6 or v8 in it? 300 cid 6 in the base model and V-8 in the XLT or whatever they called it that year.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanesteele240 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 What are they waiting for. My interest is waining. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lysleder Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 What are they waiting for. My interest is waining. They are not waiting, you.. impatient one. They are just making sure it is accurate and bug free. Apparently it has taken a few revisions to get it just right, but as for me, I'd rather wait than getting a "could have been better" kit. If anything, it seems to me that Moebius announced the kit at the time they were starting on it (which is fine by me too). And the amount of time that has passed is just the amount of time it took to make. Would you rather have it like Revell and Round 2 does it, announcing kits only two or three months before they hit the store shelves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Would you rather have it like Revell and Round 2 does it, announcing kits only two or three months before they hit the store shelves? I agree with you 100% on Moebius taking their time to make the kit as good as they can, but with the Revell and Round2 kits, it's a whole other ballgame. The Moebius Fords are a completely new, from-the-floor up project, while 99% of what Revell and Round2 are releasing are either straight or modified reissues- you can announce those a lot closer to the planned arrival date than you can with an all-new tool.

Brett Barrow Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The difference is we've been in the loop since this kit was just beginning development. Other manufacturers wait until the tooling is finished. Maybe Moebius wanted to gauge reaction before they had committed large amounts of money to the project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S. Svendsen Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Keep your shorts on. It's in the final stages and it will be worth the wait. I'm building up a test shot now and it's one of the nicest kits I've ever built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danno Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Agreed. We've waited 40+ years, we can wait another couple of months. No sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impcon Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Can you imagine the feeding frenzy when these kits hit Ebay??? It will be nauseating, I am sure, to see what the first ones sell for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niteowl7710 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Can you imagine the feeding frenzy when these kits hit Ebay??? It will be nauseating, I am sure, to see what the first ones sell for. Perhaps the M.K. '69 since it will have that 5k "Limited Edition" tag, but it's not like there's ever really a shortage of new kits. I saw in another thread people lamenting the lack of '70 Cudas because the next batch wasnt coming until this month because it's being run of with the Sox & Martin kit that's coming at the end of the month. But the LHS by my office has TWO of them just sitting there since they were released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
