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!!!

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.

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

Probably the Dog Sled chassis Scarlet Screamer

Just as an FYI, I work at the San Diego Community College and we offer FREE 3-D Printing Classes in our Continuing Ed programs. And yes, we have the latest in 3-D Printers. So check out your local Community College and maybe take a class in printing.

Dump truck for me! Otherwise, I am good to go!

Me too, the Revell Desert Rat Datsun is one of my all time favorites! I never built the MPC Datsun back then, but I am looking forward to tackling it now.

My apologies, I should have double checked it before I posted it. Sorry

Apparently my friend got the list from a Mike Powell, who sells resin and kits. Apparently a friend of Dave Burkett and some of the folks at Moebius I am just passing it along. Bummer if it is a hoax.

The MPC version came with the 4 Cyl. L Type engine.

Actually, it was quite popular. It had a great run from 1973 to 1979 The Revell version did not come in a stock version at all. It has the same generic chassis as the Ford Courier and the Chevy Luv, and it is way out of scale. The MPC kit is the closest to an accurate 620 as it gets. Sans the Gasser and Monster truck versions.

My friend just sent me this

I was really joking about dumping them on ebay since that seems to be the case when we get re-issues or new kits of something considered dead and gone. But I don't blame those who do it, I blame those who buy them with no research and then cry about it. Trust me, it has happened to me. As for replacing the Jo Han tooling, yes, I think this will end up being way better as far as detail is concerned. We all can't get that stuff anymore, but it will be nice to have fresh plastic, with more detail, available to us once again.

Yeah, I was lucky enough to grab a couple off the store shelves before they disappeared. The LHS had old stock that was not moving, that is until people figured out that JoHan was done! Then it dried up real fast. Yeah, I am keeping my stuff, but, there is always a dump when things get announced.

Time to start dumping them on fleabay!
