  1. The Red sided vega in the pic is a recreation and runs on the nostalgia circuit, hence the engine being a bit newer. https://tamrazs.wordpress.com/2017/01/04/the-midwest-nostalgia-pro-stock-association-recreates-pro-stock-past/ This is the restored Vega and engine
  2. Forget the wire wheels, i want stamped!!
  3. So far it seems that I am the only one that got The Flash on his kit! Collectors Item!! LOL!
  4. The Revell version shares it's guts with the Datsun and Luv kits. Not accurate at all.
  5. Wow, they cut out quite a bit.
  6. I thin them out a bit and shoot through the air brush with fantastic results
  7. Tamiya Enamel paints are so nice! I wish they where sold here in the U.S. as well! Luckily I still have a few from a Secret Source that scored some from Tamiya a few years back ?
  8. I think it is pretty neat for what it is, a car based on a T.V. show, and it has potential to be more. Hope AMT plays some more with their tooling and gives us another one hit wonder! I could use another wagon, how about you?
  9. Nope, it's all flash! No tape used whatsoever. All pics are just as it came out the box! This is not a perfect kit and for something that will be mostly collected and not really built, it is ok. LIke i said, it is very 80's MPC'ish
  10. It will be nice to not work with glue bombs or pay a small fortune for one. Lots of ideas out there.
  11. It was this lovely rendition
  12. Sorry about that! I guess the phone didn't rotate when I took the pics. But here you go
  13. It is weird that as I unpacked the pieces, the plastic gave me an "Early 80's MPC Feel" Does that make sense? The swirls, the flash and the feel of the plastic had memories rushing back of opening an MPC in the 80's
  14. Yeah, I am not all that thrilled with it being molded in black, but, it is better than Red! I am sure they molded in color to appeal more to who this kit is aimed at, fans of the show who rarely, or don't, build models.
  15. There where also a few Road Racer types that where part of the series, like the Datsun and Porsche kits
  16. Whoops! I knew I forgot something!
