  1. Go read the reviews on the Bond Mustang kit. They redid the whole front end to be more correct.
  2. Beautiful. I’m looking forward to getting mine.
  3. I enjoyed these Slammer kits when they were out the first time. I still have them. Between that fact, and seeing box art above, I’m sure I’ll be passing on these two this time.
  4. I (pre)ordered mine from Model Round last night. Along with '72 Chevy Racers Wedge and the GMC Jimmy. Cool stuff.
  5. Thanks for the update Tim.
  6. Good. I'd rather have the Revell version. Let's hope they've fix and cleaned up the molds, so kit can be at least as good as it was when it was first released back in the late 1960's. And again, put it back in a box with the original art work.
  7. The above may still be the best example of the greatest "box art" ever done, in my opinion. I still love it. If Atlantis has the molds for the above kit, and reissues it with that box art, I'll buy one despite how good or bad the contents are in the box. My suspicion is the kit they have and with be reissuing is the old Monogram '57 Nomad. I did build a nice one a few years back. The one with cardboard diorama gas station. It looked okay when done. But, the portions never looked quite right to me. So, I'm hoping for the old Revell kit. Despite all the horror stories I keep hearing, I don't remember it being all that bad. I remember building the kit at least twice. The first time, was the kit with the box art above. Not the easiest kit to build. But, not horrible either. Though, if I get a chance to build another one, I will be gluing the tailgate shut, and probably the doors too. We'll see.
  8. Ah, okay. Not a big one on my list of must haves. But, I'll be buying one just the same.
  9. My #1 holy grail kit, the old Revell Spare Station from the late 50's. I believe that was only put out the one time, and was not a good seller at the time. I hope molds are still around for that one. But, I'm not holding my breath.
  10. I also will be looking forward to both the Firebird and Nova, if they are the exact kits shown above. Plus the '56 Buick if it can be built stock.
  11. I know a lot people think I'm nuts for wanting the old Revell 1971 Jungle Jim Camaro. But, it was one of first funny car kits I built back in the day. In fact, I think the only other funny car I had built before that was Monogram's Mean Maverick. And like Mr. Van above, I'd love to see Atlantis bring that one back. Back to the '71 Jungle Jim Camaro. In retrospect I understand that it was not a very accurate kit. But, I thought it looked cool at the time. And want to get one back in my collection. I think I can do a better job building it this time. The first time, I just assembled it straight out of the box without any paint. Built in one afternoon. I will take more time and use paint on this one.
  12. Which spacecraft kit is this one exactly?
  13. Very kool. I wouldn't think the Chrysler grille would work. But, it look great. I like it.
  14. Two very nice models. I like them.
  15. Very good job. Fun to see the kustom version with the test equipment too. I'm impressed.
  16. Looks good. I like it.
  17. Beautiful job, bring a classic back from dead. I love it.
  18. Very nice.
  19. Looks great. I like the color.
  20. Very cool. I remember seeing a few midsize Mopars back in the day with those “mod” tops. I really like looks of your Duster setup that way. It looks both good and period right. Even if it isn’t.
  21. Looks good.
