Justin Porter Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Well, everyone looking forward to their Mooneyes dragster should be excited. This was just posted by Atlantis on their FB page. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which leads me to believe that it hasn't, actually. I saw in one of their emails that they send out that they were planning to start dispatching the Mooneyes kits late last week...so I guess we might see them THIS week. Guess we'll see!

Daddyfink Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Is it just me, or do those boxes look really Square? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely the box is the size of the parts pack trees......they are kinda square.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 So, Pics incoming soon? Sounds Like a good deal already. How do the tires look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straightliner59 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Okat. NOW, my Mooneyes has been shipped! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Bartrop Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Sounds lit it's worth buying even if you couldn't care less about vintage dragsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Strange that the unplated parts are bagged while the plated trees are not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m excited for the kit…and to see what extra stuff is ACTUALLY in the box (and see it). Curious about the new tires too. This has been mentioned before, but I wonder what else Atlantis can do to maximize that M👀neyes licensing whilst they’ve got it. I’m a sucker for anything with that logo on… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reegs Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) Sorry, can't do pics. Tires look good. Correct color, crisp detail (I think anyway). Edited October 28, 2021 by Reegs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that too, but it works the same I guess. they kept the chrome separated in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draggon Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) Look at the white tree. The Revell Roadster Chassis Speed Equipment parts pack! That's pretty darn amazing, something many of us hoped but never expected we'd ever see again. Edited October 28, 2021 by Draggon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RancheroSteve Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Wow, that does look good! I may just have to buy one and keep it in my original box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I believe that roadster chassis is in there because one piece is needed for the dragster. What was originally a tow bar was reworked to create a radius rod for the dragster's front suspension. If that is the case, then between the rest of that pack and the leftover parts on the other trees, you should be able to build a complete roadster chassis, minus engine, tires, and body of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 LOTS of extra goodies........Atlantis is looking VERY smart right now. Not having to wait for a container from ASIA, huge cost increases......that bid for the Revell Monogram tooling is looking like the move of the century! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrenchr Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I'll buy more for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys....whoever dreamed that in a million years we would be able to buy newly molded parts of the original Revell Parts Pack suspension and chassis parts???? Not this guy, that is for sure. What a great moment for the hobby. Thanks to Peter V. and the entire Atlantis team!!! TIM 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CabDriver Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Thanks for the pics Jason, now I'm REALLY excited! More cool stuff in the box than I could've hoped for! I hope Atlantis has good stocks of this one - I can see it being a GREAT seller, for the parts alone 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 eBay sellers parting out this kit in 3-2-1.......! Kit looks awesome. I'll bet Round2 narrow piecrust slicks will fit on this kit too. And, there are some nice extra wheels on the chrome tree. Talk about feeding the Parts Box! Bring on the Fiat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
