tim boyd Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I do know that Atlantis is working on reissuing another kit of the original Revell Tri-Five series, but I'll leave it to Peter or Jim or their spokesperson to divulge what and when....TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SfanGoch Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Ugh! No disrespect intended; but, what is it with you guys? In the past month, I made two separate postings about the '57 Nomad. I even included Peter's reply to my email about its status; yet, nobody seems to pay attention or read previous comments because the same question keeps popping up. I guess his own words aren't good enough for some members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjsipes Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Does anyone know if Atlantis got the 68 and/or 69 Dart kits from Revell? Would love to get a couple more of them in the future. I need to get some better pictures of this one I built. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 In short, if you want to speculate or dream about whether or not Atlantis has a particular kit tool, take a look at recent issues of the same kit. Made in USA = there's a chance Atlantis has it. Made in China = nope. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the reason for the delay is that he's making changes to the tool. If its the old, late 60’s 1/25 scale Revell tool, it needs a lot of work. As I’ve stated previously, I’m looking forward to the Revell tool coming back. It’s by far superior (IMO) to the 1/24 scale Monogram version.

Personally, I think this is probably the best proportioned of the old Revell Tri-Fives. Another plus is that previous versions have included both a small block and a 409. Assuming that will be the same. Revell's modern new tool 1/25 '55 hardtop hasn't been out in quite a while, so Atlantis should be able to move these pretty well (IF indeed this is their next release). There is the old Monogram 1/24 street machine/ex Badman getting reissued, but that body is a hot mess IMHO.

I think the glass fits ok, but the roof does appear to have a slight slope in the front. Not sure how to fix that and still get the glass to fit. Look at the box to see the taper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 All I see is the huge gap between the top of the vent window and roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means alot coming from you. I glued plastic strips from the moldings and the vinyl top seams and applied decals for the 3 different sections of the roof.
