I'd expect a ton of sinkholes nevertheless. Look at the Ferrari California and the Porsche Panamera. Oddly enough, the McLaren 570 and Mercedes AMG GT were pretty well-molded.

Spending a lot of time in cleaning that up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavanzer Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Not Car related but, glad to see the 1/72 Ju-52 and 1/35 GMC Deuce and a Half, from Heller. Those kits have been going for stupid money lately. This will knock the legs from under that market. And I'll get fresh decals. Some other nice Non-Auto stuff from Heller, as well. Good Show. P.S. Any ideas for a good mail order vendor for purchasing Heller kits in the USA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Aren't sinkholes from low injection pressures IIRC? Capillary effect fills some but ends up being divit since not quite enough plastic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see the kit when it comes out. Edited February 3, 2020 by Atmobil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas for a good mail order vendor for purchasing Heller kits in the USA? HobbyLinc and MegaHobby both carry some Heller kits. I've ordered from both and never had any problems. Here are their Heller pages. For many years, until Tamiya did its kit, the Heller GMC was the only kit of that truck with an engine. I have an old Verlinden GMC 6-cylinder engine in a crate. I'm pretty sure they just copied the Heller engine and added the crate.
