GMP440 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Just wondering if the kits are the same. Any differences in parts? Is one better than the other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camaroman Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 (edited) I believe the 1st release(pro Modeler) has a higher parts count, due to to more photoetch. I also believe they represent different versions of the car. Seems like I remember two different hoods in the kits More when I can locate them in the archives (the big closet stuffed with kits) Edited October 11, 2007 by camaroman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 IIRC, the red car had hidden headlights (I have the kit but not in front of me.........buried somewhere), and the yellow car had exposed headlights. I think there were model name differences, but I don't remember what right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVZ2881 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 there are actually 3 releases of this kit... release 1 is the pro-modeler GT version with flat hood and hidden headlamps, orange or red on box with pro-modeler label on box. release 2 is the yellow car on box, it is the cobra version with shaker hood and scoop, and non hidden lamps release 3 is the current one with red car on box, same as cobra version release 2 btw. when kit was changed from gt to cobra, revell needed to remove the side louvers from the quarter panels but didnt, so they will need to be sanded off the be correct for a cobra version.
