That looks really good Ronny. I love the colour and the stance is just right. Sometimes the chrome in the kit can make or break the use of bumpers and often I have to colour co-ordinate the bumpers because the kit chrome is not up to scratch. In this case you have made it looks great! I have stayed in Dhaka (Dhanmondi area) on occasions and you should be able to receive deliveries of most model stuff there. Orders from USA and Japan should be able to make their way to you. Keep up the good modelling Ronny!

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the difference other than the badging? Is the body of the 67 and 68 the same?

Its nice to see the cabrio... but don't we already have a decent hard top Beetle available from Tamiya?

You can't beat a Willy's with a massive V8. Nice work Jesse. That's a cracking model!

WOW. I did not know this kit was available. I have seen the Revel/Monogram 78 model and had at first just assumed this was the same kit in the box. I've always wanted to build a Bandit, but have not been keen on working with the AMT kit (which is not as nice as this by a long way). Thanks for this review. I'll get my order in.

That's a beautiful looking Jag Jürgen. I agree - the wire wheels really make it look better. Did you build the engine detail as well. If I remember correctly this kit has a rather nice straight six.

Those are two great looking models Larry. The finish looks flawless! I especially like the shape of the Fastback. Your 1:1 car is stunning too. It is interesting to see how similar the shape of the Fastback is to a 1951 Chevy Fleetline. I have the AMT Chevy on my desk right now and I was surprised to see how similar they look.

Really, really nice!!

That Galaxie kit is one of the finest 1/25 scale kits I've seen. You have done a great job there Terry - it looks STUNNING! A perfect colour and flawless finish. I have this in my stash and will probably build it box stock as its too nice to mess with! Am I right in thinking that Galaxie now offer this kit as a panel van kit?

A truly beautiful model of a beautiful car. I don't think I've ever seen this colour combination before - it looks great!

What a collection. They all look like 1:1 cars. I wish I just had the space to store a collection like that.

That's a really nice build Túlio, That colour choice really suits the Galaxie, and it's good to see one built stock. I see you did a really good job with AMT's pesky moulded in exhaust on this kit. You managed to make it look realistic.

An excellent job Dominik! That paint job came out well. especially considering it did not get polished.

Thanks all for the info. I guess this would apply any 60's / 70's muscle car. Ed, pics of the Mach 1 would be appreciated.

I'm building Revell's 1968 Dodge Dart and I got a question about the black stripe decal that I'm sure someone can help with. In fact, I guess this question would apply to any 60's Muscle car. It's being built as a factory stock car, but what I need to know is should the decal be placed before or after the clear coat? I would have guessed that the 1:1 car would be painted in the factory and then the stripes applied over the top, but I have seen pics of cars where it looks like the stripes are under the clear lacquer like this... help!

Nice clean build. As a GTO it had to be red It's curious that Revell made a whole new tooling for the GTO version of the 599, instead of just including some extra bits to the kit. I'm looking forward to building one of these.

Nice build. Looks really cool in white! I must get round to building my one.

Yep - the Revell kit has an engine. It's a full engine, but the induction pipes are a little out of scale (too thin). The whole Revell kit has slightly odd proportions. The Fujimi one is much better - but of course it's not a full detail kit. I've always thought a combination of the Fujimi body with the Revell engine/drivetrain would make a nice 1/24 model.

Would be great to simply use the resin engine & drivetrain from MFH's kit (if only the parts were available separately).

Just saw the new Mclaren F1 model on HLJ website... http://www.hlj.com/product/FUJ12573/Aut Does anyone know any details? Looking at the pic it looks like there will be opening doors. Hopefully full engine detail, but who knows!

Nice one!!

Nice work Geoff. I have a Tamiya Mini in my collection waiting to be built, but now I think I'll have to get the Revell one. Its a niice kit and your doing a great job on it. By the looks of your prifile you're not a million miles away from where the 1:1 cars were originally built. Looking forward to seeing this one completed.

A beautiful model of a beautiful car

The Hasagawa XJS is a nice kit, but the underside really lacks detail. It has a moulded in gearbox and the suspension is simplified. Having said that, it does make a nice model - just maybe not as nice as those Fujimi EM kits. Agreed - the Fujimi Enthusiast models have the best detail I've ever seen. Even after 20 odd years I dont think anything rivels them for detail, however I do think some of Tamiya's latest stuff is coming very close (Enzo, Mclaren SLC, Ferrari 360).

How good to see a 4-door. Nice build there Grzegorz.
