Would be nice to see an XJ Cherokee as well, which it appears as though Round2 is taking that into consideration. I ageee,someone should make a model of an XJ Cherokee.Two or four door..Maybe it could be built two ways,stock,and lifted.Still waiting for a company,like maybe (Revell),for example, to release one.Tick tock,tick tock.Lol.🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moparfarmer Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Before any company makes a new release from beginning to end it needs to be able to make into many different variants..A one of ISN'T going to happen and neither is a "C" body Dodge,Plymouth or Chrysler..Even though the Dodge and Plymouth could be made into police vehicles..

Bugatti Fan Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 John Myrick was lamenting the loss of the Uncertain T. The original tooling may be long gone, but I believe someone is casting a kit in resin in Australia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I remember seeing a resin one on the bay for about 80 bucks but that was a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily if the subject has excellent international appeal. Tamiya's McLaren Senna kit for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks because a 67-69 valiant would be awesome. I've been searching for a resin with no luck 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repstock Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) Big '70s Lincolns, Cadillacs, Furies, Ninety Eights, Electras, that sort of thing. Do it promo style to save money. These would be niche offerings. Edited January 14, 2022 by Repstock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Number One car on my list of Dream Models is the 1912 Mercer Raceabout, in 1/25 Scale to go with the MPC Stutz Bearcat. It'll never happen, but like you, I can dream. I could get behind a 1/25 Mercer as well. Maybe the folks at ICM are the ones to talk to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I would like to see more modern trucks in 1/25 scale other than the International LoneStar & ProStar. Not that I didn't appreciate Moebius making these, I did, and I bought them; but maybe some more modern Freightliner, Mack, or Paccar trucks would be nice. While I'm dreaming, I'd also like to see some modern F1 & Indy cars in 1/25 scale, not that odd-ball 1/20 scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reegs Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Oh, and nothing molded into place. Exhaust, drive train, suspension, gas tank, seats, wipers, brake reservoir, etc., etc. all separate. Let me decide what goes onto my model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that was just a promo body, mated to one of their FC chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Junkman Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Let me add (again). ANY up to date-as in any year model of the past 10 years-American made full size pickup. Ford, Chevy/GM, Dodge; any of them. The larger ones like the F-250, 2500 etc would be a bonus. With the exception of the Revell Raptor snap kit and the Meng F-350 I can't think of any recent kits.

tim boyd Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 In reviewing these comments and suggestions, it strikes me that there is virtually no consensus on just a few key topics that the kit manufacturers could commit to scale styrene. But then again, participants in this forum are a very small, while very sophisticated and well educated, faction of the model car kit hobby. In that view, the wide variety of kit ideas and subjects voiced here makes sense, I guess. TIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altered Ego Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 With Moebius coming out with the Nova Gasser and a Dodge Coronet AWB car, my list would be for Moebius to make the following: 1965 Mustang A/FX car 1966 Mercury Comet flip-top car 1965 Chevelle AWB 1965 GTO AWB 1965 Barracuda that could be built as the Hemi Cuda II or Bob Sullivan's Pandemonium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Janssens Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Not a complete list, just personal preferences I came up with drinking my first cup of coffee, on a lazy Sunday morning and in random order. Enjoy and love to get feedback! Mods: Revell '70 'Cuda into a '71 (in the budget include a cosmetic retool of the '70) Revell '94 Chevy Impala SS into a '96 Impala and Caprice police car Revell '66 Pontiac GTO into a '67 Revell '69 Chevelle into a '70 using data from the WOF kit Round-2 '66 Fairlane into a '67 Fairlane 500 XL 427 R code (in the budget include the cost for a DLO correction) Round-2 '68-'69 Plymouth Satellite into a '70 (in the budget include the cost for a reskin of the '68-'69) Round-2 '71 Charger R/T into a Super Bee Round-2 '71 Charger R/T into a '71-72 Plymouth Satellite Round-2 '67 Mustang FB into a coup, stock and drag racing, (in the budget include cost for enhancing the FB kit, like the optional ribbed tailpanel) Round-2 '78ish Ford Camper special into a shortbed style- and flareside ( in the budget include new grilles covering several model years, and a DLO correction) Note: these are additional versions, thus not destroying current tooling, just mods to enhance and extra satellite tooling to make them more versatile. All new: '68-'70 Dodge Coronet '70-'74 Challenger '72-'92ish Dodge pickup/Ramchargers (co-developing with a company that does 1/35 military model kits) '73-'85ish Chevy C/K series pickups and Blazers, (co-developing with a company that does 1/35 military model kits) '87-'96 Ford Bronco (Including Police/Sheriff/Border patrol versions and a OJ special) and F-series pickups '68-'72 Pontiac GTO '71-'81 Pontiac Firebird Note: these are generations, so modular tooling clusters and clever engineering to maximise return on investment Improved reverse engineering: - MPC ‘72-78 Dodge custom panel van - AMT ‘67-68 Mercury Cougar - MPC ’66 Pontiac Bonneville - MPC ’69 Chevy Impala - MPC ’71, ’72 & 73 Impala - AMT ’66 Mercury Comet - Jo-Han’70-71 Cadillac Deville - Jo-Han ’68-70 AMC AMX - Jo-Han ’72 Ford Gran Torino - Amt ’66 Buick Skylark Note: Anything Jo-Han is very unlikely, but it's nice to dream, isn't it?!
