At Walmart (at least one store)
Daddyfink replied to Classicgas's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Just discovered another Walmart in my area is carrying models. But, they are not in the toy section, they are in the crafts section! Yes, next to the fabric and little old lady trinkets! So keep looking, they may be somewhere weird! -

Very nice and clean build

The GTO is the real star of this offering, everything else is pretty meh

Maybe because you are going to a link that is 12 years old. And he never bothered to update anything around here, like if he is even still in business.

How Do You Remove Paint From Chrome
Daddyfink replied to midlineqb's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Maybe just post an ad in the Wanted section for those parts and just replace them. -
JoHan made a full detail kit and a Promo, that later became an unassembled easy kit

I would love to see some early stuff done, but, the biggest problem I see with that is the limitations of the chassis for the kit maker. Most of these cars where one off types, or made by someone in their garage or shop for themselves. Sure they can be adapted to bash different cars, but for the kit maker, how many different versions of the Greeks early Chizler can you make? Now, with that said, The Surfers car, which was made by them in a motel garage, is base on the Chizler, so that is a second possibility.

Yes, Union Model managed to get the Revell Datsun molds and make a few kits back in the 80's. The BRE 510, Z, and the Brock Buster where done by them. For a long time, they where one of the only available issues of these kits, the other being Lodela of Mexico and their re-issues of these kits. I only know this because I am Datsun Nerd! LOL!

You are correct! Those are it! Wish these would come back, they are so much nicer than the current ones being offered. I thought they where part of the MRC line, but it has been a while since I have played with them. Their Turbine Wheels are also very nicely done.

Well, I used the slotted style wheels with the BFG tires and they look pretty good to me. These came in the plastic bags, not in the boxes like the ones shown. So they might be older.

Why is everyone ignoring the biggest news yet!? The Lighthouse is coming!!!

Atlantis Models has bought another lot of tooling/molds.....
Daddyfink replied to Dave Van's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Well, until Revell digs up the molds, this is should do in a pinch, if you really want a Buick in your rod. -

That will depend if Prudhomme, his daughter, agrees to it. His licensed items are controlled by his daughter, and for quite some time, she held on to it pretty tight. Slixx made every decal out there for McEwen, but nothing for Prudhomme, because she said no. Things have changed a bit, and hopefully they allow Revell to use his name again. -
Well, I guess I will just wait and see like everyone else.

Daddyfink replied to Dave Van's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Yes, that would be a cool engine to get back, but, I think it is the same one that is in the Tommy Ivo Showboat dragster. -
So now there really is a Maverick coming? Wow
