  1. It's amazing what time and nostalgia will make one long for these days. Even bad kits are looked at fondly nowadays.
  2. Oh yeah, that is nice, real nice!
  3. I just scored the Porsche 944 kit. It's in a bag, but complete And I would be happy if AMT re-released their Capri kits!
  4. I just bought one of these and hung it above my work area and man, what a difference!! Found it a COSTCO for less than $30!
  5. It's such a cool little quirky car! Would be awesome if they made a 1/24th scale version. Probably end up not being too much bigger than 32nd! LOL!
  6. Gee, that really makes me, well, not care about his sales! Maybe he can use what he has left to build a new one with "Original Parts"!
  7. Very cool! I was thinking of building the same car!! Those decals are really nice!
  8. I will wait for the race versions and refrain from buying the stock stuff. I think Cady also did the Golden Commando car
  9. Yes, it would be nice to get it back, even though I already have two! And this is what they did with it later....
  10. This is how I look like building models compared to Tim...
  11. Very Clean! I like it!
  12. iamsuperdan is also a safe bet! LOL! Be glad to trade with him again anytime! And thank you! Jesse C.
  13. I totally forgot about that Ram Charger from Monogram!
  14. Yes, they are pretty cool. I had never seen the Barbie one before, thus, I had to get it!
  15. Score from the Good Guys Del Mar show
  16. Very cool TROG car!
  17. Hate to say it, but, they are impossible to enjoy due to the very blurry shots. You might want to practice a few more time with the camera/phone and try again.
  18. NHRA did the same to Garlits and anything Mopar for a long time. Mopar was unstopable and Garlits challenged and ridiculed Wally Parks for his views and rules about drag racing, including the Fuel Ban. Smokey deserves better and NASCAR is a joke.
  19. When I started building at the age of 6 back in the 70's, those kits where way out of my league! I loved all the parts and details, but, I don't think I ever tried one until in was in my teens. And even then I don't think I fully finished on of them, them being the Orange Crate, Challenger or the 57 Chevy. I am currently getting back on a 57 I started a few years back. Stripping and starting all over again!
  20. What one should really be asking is, what is the best representation of a certain vehicle. So yes, which one comes the closest to looking like the real deal. It is the best we can hope for. As some have mentioned before, to make it a 100% would mean some pretty spectacular molding process and parts we could barely see or hold.
  21. I have won a few and quite honestly, they are in a box somewhere. And yes, they are not all first place! LOL!
  22. And once again, let your wallet be the judge! Buy it or don't buy it.
