  1. iamsuperdan is also a safe bet! LOL! Be glad to trade with him again anytime! And thank you! Jesse C.
  2. I totally forgot about that Ram Charger from Monogram!
  3. Yes, they are pretty cool. I had never seen the Barbie one before, thus, I had to get it!
  4. Score from the Good Guys Del Mar show
  5. Very cool TROG car!
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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!
  9. 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.
  10. I have won a few and quite honestly, they are in a box somewhere. And yes, they are not all first place! LOL!
  11. And once again, let your wallet be the judge! Buy it or don't buy it.
  12. That is tight! Vato!
  13. Very nice build! Shiny too!
  14. Very nice! Reminds me of Scott Sullivan's Nova
  15. Feliz Pascuas! Or Happy Easter!
  16. I think some of you need to warm up on it by building this first!
  17. I am glad they will not re-issue the engines, I bought them and have still not used them. But, the AMT stuff, I still have some of the Blueprinter stuff and snagged a few of the last issues. The bikes are neat, but, I heard that the HD licensing was a big sticking point with them. Regardless, it would have been nice to get them back. Back in the early 80's the local Pic N Save discount store had all the Revell Grease 2 kits and the bikes where going for $1.50! I bought one, wish I would have bought more,but, I was a kid and didn't know what they truly where. Hope they re-consider after seeing the success of the AMT stuff and re-issue some of the other parts.
  18. Yes, definitely would want a couple in 1/16th! Maybe a Bantam and a T body as well
  19. Wow! You did a fantastic job on this one! Very nice!
  20. Yes, it would be nice, but the tooling has changed so much that the best bet would be a new mold
  21. AMT is making parts packs from items that where not parts packs to begin with. Revell needs to follow suit and do the same with some of its accessories. Revell had all those van and truck kits with extra goodies. Who wants a Honda Odyssey? Some bikes with a trailer? A dune buggy? Some Jet Bikes? Yes, I want them all! But Revell is just stuck on re-issuing their old and tired engine packs. Who would like to see the Revell rims come back with new and nicer tires? Yes, we all would. Come on Revell, just issue the goodies!
  22. Wheels and tires are the same ones that come in the 1/20th scale off road vans!
