modelercarl Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 In conversation with one of the owners of A&N Resin about an issue with their Dodge Ram kit, I mentioned they should offer a Kit of the Ford Raptor pickup. He informed me that they have that in their schedule. They are developing 6 kits of big rigs right now and then they are doing the Ford Raptor. He anticipates having the Ford kit ready for release in August-September 2021. In addition he mentioned that they are planning to offer various styles of each US pickup kit in the future including the Dodge and Ford releases.

I was hoping they were going to do a Raptor. Did they specify which Gen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodent Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 We still don't know what the 2021 Raptor will be. Wonder if they will wait and do one of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the other Mike S. Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Didn't Revell offer both new and old style Raptors recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they did both Gens in 1/25, and both are snappers The Gen1 is a very nicely detailed kit. The interior and chassis are very well detailed. The Gen2 looks good but it's just got a basic mostly flat chassis and the interior is detailed but not nearly as much as the Gen1 kit. If A&N does a Raptor I hope its a quad cab as both the Revel kits are just the "super cab" and not the "super crew" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repstock Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I assume the big rigs are European models(?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom, He did mention that they were doing Euro big rigs and the last one before the Ford Raptor is a Aussie/American Freightliner Argosy Cabover.

mikemodeler Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Interesting how a company half a world away is doing some modern domestic pick up kits. Would be great to see a GM pick up too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
