  1. Nothing a dab of Ford Blue paint can't fix
  2. What a knockout! Nice build
  3. Hold on, Wallet, it's going to be a bumpy ride! Thanks for the pics and info, Tim!
  4. Spotted this little guy on the way home from work, and the Dodge when I walked into my friends shop
  5. Well, one must also keep in mind that Model Kits are not HL's priorities, they are just something they carry in addition to everything else. They have prices that are comparable to most brick and mortar places, and even cheaper in some cases, and offer 40% off some times. Sure, they will not carry everything, but, they carry enough for the average model builder or Aunt looking for a gift to buy. So, comparing HL to an online place that deals mainly in model kits is a bit off. Your mileage may vary!
  6. I have never seen the phone booth in person, always found the kit but the booth was missing. It would be nice to have it for dioramas or for the sake of the kits originality I Vote bring it back!
  7. It's Awesome! That's what it is!
  8. Found'em! Very cool, and yes, that large one is pretty tempting, but I think 1/24th will be fine. Thanks for the info Now, who makes decals for it?
  9. Well, my diabolical little mind had an 18RG in mind at the time. Only $250 at the local engine importer! LOL! Big money for a Dish Washing kid!
  10. Back in the 80's, one of my older cousins offered me a Corolla, exactly like this one! But my Dad said no, and that was probably a good thing, as I wanted to Hot Rod everything I got my hands on up to that time. LOL! Great save!
  11. This happens regardless of who made the kit, sometime things get crushed or damaged, and it has happened to me a few times. It is really no big reason to skip out on a kit. If this becomes a big issue with the manufacturer, I am sure they will take steps to correct the situation. But, to each their own.
  12. Going out of sequence on the Tamiya Instructions! LOL!
  13. Originally the Tom "The Mongoose" McEwen's Funny, then the Tom Daniel's make over into the Cop Out, some different versions and then this version.
  14. I got my hood and chassis last week, and they are nice and straight! Thanks Moebius/Pegasus!
  15. Well, it's actually a JJ Funny with Green Elephant decals
  16. By New, I mean New. Not the two sets of different wheels this kit has come with before.
  17. We need to get the rest of the Choppers as well, and most of them seem to have been in the hands of Revell AG. But here is original catalog for them.
  18. That L.A. Chopper is a must! No more crazy prices! And I do hope they re-issue the trikes
  19. Yes, it is a great source of material on this car.
  20. They are now mailing out parts to those who put in a replacement request
