  1. I think that's the first time I've ever seen a key put into the ignition on a model. Keep up the good work!

  2. Yellow tags at Hobby Lobby

    I'm sure that having Sundays off helps with retention.

  3. 2019 Round2 Truck Kit Releases

    av405 replied to Casey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews

    I don't think those are real. If you notice, the Pepsi logo is still visible on the door. But realistically, the final design will probably be similar to this. Just the way the Pepsi box art was a direct copy of the 70's era Hertz truck cover.
  4. They're slowing coming back into stock: https://upscalehobbies.com/124-125-street-cars/740-125-85-oldsmobile-442fe3-x-show-car.html?search_query=revell+oldsmobile&results=142

  5. '96 Ford Crown Vic Tyler TX Police

    Thanks for the group shots. My favorites are probably the 1992 CV and the recent Caprice you just did. Adam, that's the Lindberg Crown Victoria kit.

    As always, impressive. Have you ever considered doing a "family" shot of all of your Tyler cars?

  7. 2017 Toyota Camry, Whats In The Box

    av405 replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin

    I'm still trying to understand what was harsh about the replies. He asked a question, people answered. It was all very direct and mature.

  8. Let's see some police cars

    av405 replied to Slotto's topic in Under Glass

    Robert, what colors did you use for the Mustang? They look great!

  9. 1/25 AMT NYPD Chevy Police Van

    av405 replied to Casey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews

    I'm still hoping the NYPD decals are accurate for the era. I could use them on other projects. Because the box art doesn't accurately depict what an NYPD van would have looked like in the 1970's and 80's. And yes, I do realize that they just took the old box art and added the NYPD stuff.

  10. '95 Chevy Caprice Tyler TX Police

    av405 replied to gator52's topic in Under Glass

    You knocked another one out of the park! Do you have a link to the Shapeways light bar mounts?
  11. That’s a big mistake. But if they have the Flareside tailgate tooled up, does that mean we can expect a Flareside re-release in the future?
  12. av405 started following ANJ Resins - - Anyone have experience with them...???
  13. Casey, here's an old thread you can check out to compare these two kits. I had already brought up the A & J kit up before: This thread has excellent pictures of the Modelhaus Impala kit: http://www.wettringer-modellbauforum.de/forum/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=55803
  14. Yes they do. It appears that the front clip and taillights were modified to look like those of the Caprice, but that's it. I thought about buying this kit in the past but the high cost , combined with it not being a complete kit and having inaccurate headlights, made me pass.

  15. Police Decals Wanted

    av405 replied to av405's topic in Wanted!

    Just wanted to thank misternemo for coming through with some of my requests. He did a great job of packaging the decals and sending them over. Still looking to see if anybody else has any of these decals. Thank you.
  16. I’m almost certain they took a Modelhaus Impala body and modified it into a Caprice. That’s another red flag.
