Any up dates on the Moebius chevy II gasser ?
Luc Janssens replied to Mr mopar's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
A lot can change in 4 years. But the hobby is doing great in this pandemic, so who knows what the future might bring. -
So a prime example that it takes money to make money.

History of Revell's Squarebody Pickup kits
Luc Janssens replied to kalbert's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I've said it many times that these square bodies, deserve all new tooling also some of the design costs can be shared by doing some of the models in 1/35th scale too. The same can be said for the same era Dodge pickups and derivatives. -
1/25 Revell SnapTite Taxi/Fire Chief Chevy Caprice
Luc Janssens replied to Casey's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
A pity is that when R-M redesigned for the Impala SS, they didn't keep the Caprice option albeit updated to '94 or later specs. Tooling up the trunk lid as a separate part would facilitate the use of the same body for both. Input welcome....- 7 replies

Aoshima "Liberty Walk" Huracan
Luc Janssens replied to Justin Porter's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
IMHO they should add tampo printed frit on the clear greenhouse parts, that would make it perfect for novice builders. -
Any news on this one, it being a craftsman plus kit.

Odd, that there's no quarterly new release list, wonder who fed the pics to hobby search. -
1/25 AMT Kenworth/Challenge Transit Mixer
Luc Janssens replied to Casey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Yeah already seen it.... -
Funny, they forgot to add that panel line
-
Likely we will never know why, but at the same time the Kats at Amt under the umbrella of Ertl, were in the process of tooling up a full detail kit of the shortbox sport pick-up, but the project halted shortly after the body buck was crafted.

Corvette Grand Sport - Accurate Miniatures or Revell?
Luc Janssens replied to Mcpesq817's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
The AM vettes were reworked at some point, by AM and probably got new box-art too. The Revell version is a bagged shot of the latter in a Revell wrapper. -
1/25 AMT 1964 Olds Cutlass F85 Convertible
Luc Janssens replied to Casey's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
What I'm hinting to here is, that these day's there's not much room for one trick pony's....so it would not surprise me a second version was planned from the get go, for max ROI, at least that's what I would do. -

I remember Dave Metzner stating in a podcast (Episode 20 - Dave Metzner, Product Development Manager, Moebius Models — Model Car Podcast) that ragtops don't sell, so..... -

Luc Janssens replied to Casey's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Which is for the better, otherwise one could end up with the same problems that manifested in the '65 GoAT back when Ertl tried to bring hat kit back to stock. -
Plus it has great wire wheels!
