And then he sees your face, when you find out the tires melted into the clear parts and that the body is a short-shot. Priceless!!

Harry, can we do trade? Send some sun our way and I'll. give you some (or a lot of) rain.. It's supposed to be summer here, but has been raining since last week, with temps in the high 60s, sometimes low 70s.....

Was surfing the net and was wondering if there would be anything new on Dave Metzner's photo album...then I noticed that the Hudson Hornet test shot album was updated 7 days ago...so here goes... Click here

Like I wrote it's a re-pop of an old ('80s) Esci kit, IIRC it's the only 1/24 scale military kit they have done. Italeri themselves, did a WWII Jeep (stock a fire vehicle) & Opel Blitz (stakebed & firetruck), but none were merchandised as military vehicles, Hasegawa did with a WWII Jeep and Kubelwagen. Too bad Hasegawa never did a GMC Jimmy, that is what would've brought in the bacon...though if you want one in 1/24 scale, one can buy a resin kit.

An ex-Esci 1/24 scale model-kit. Mount the Machine-gun on a pickup (bed) of your choice, and voila an instant warlord vehicle.... For more detailed info about this new release, go to the Italeri website

Photo's taken from the Revell Germany site. For more info about these please visit the Revell Germany website BTW also take a look at the new car releases....

That's the ticket to an all new full size Bonnie.....but then licensing probably would be a great pain...so holding on, on both my '66 Poncho anuals

You'll need a license for when the computer crashes, or when parameters not fed into the program makes it go berserk, hmmm that sounds like a plot for some blockbuster Hollywood movie...

Looking forward seeing the results...

I'm not sure I understand your question, you ask for little updates but then quote all new tooling.... So I'm gonna tread this as, "what existing kit would you like to have retooled" type of question. Well...at the moment a '67 GTO will do just fine

Glad that I bought two when they were new, BTW I like the way Revell did the grille with the seperate insert, too bad they didn't engineer the basic and Lightning F-150s the same way.

I doubt it, I fear the combination is too long when a trailer is hooked up. Here in Belgium a tractor-trailer combo can't be over 16.50 meters and a truck with trailer not over 18.75 meter. There are test planned to allow longer (25 meters) combo's on certain freeways and through roads, but dunno if it's gonna fly here in over-congestion-ed Antwerp. I think if one makes it here it will be kind of a show truck....

Dave just a thought.... Maybe also post this info on the Moebius website, so people who do not surf the modeling board also have access to that info, print it and put it inside their kit for future reference...

Also check out Domino from Belgium, they offer the kit for 55 euro!

Got mine yesterday, and today after my kid is off to school, the wife to work, I can check it out on my day off....life can be great

Ha, the same guys who own Belkits, priced just right! So what else could I do, but order. Hope to have it in my hands by the end of next week.

Was surfing on the Revell Germany site and found this.....

Don't know what the modus operandi of Moebius is, but do hope that European distributors, after placing their orders with Moebius in the US, can have the merchandise shipped directly from China, otherwise I fear we're in for a big sticker shock. Lets keep our fingers crossed

I don't know about you guys, but I find Revell is doing a great job, just look at the under-body & -hood detail from the '10 Camaro, and the engine bay of the '10 Mustang coupe..... and this all at roughly half the price of a Tamiya curbsite. Thanks for showing these photo's Gregg!!

I'll play, but I would change the scale in 1/25 (please note, that this is a dream list, and know that many of these subjects are/were available as resin copies of vintage kits, offered in a different scale, or findable annuals on the secondary market) -'68 Dodge Coronet -'69 Chrysler New Yorker -'68 Chevy Chevelle -'69 Chevy Impala -'69-'70 Cadillac Deville -'70 Plymouth Hemi 'cuda -'70 Dodge Charger -'71 Dodge Demon -'71 Dodge Challenger R/T -'72 Ford LTD -'72 Chevy Caprice -'72 Ford Grand Torino GTS -'76 Ford Grand Torino -'76 Ford Grand Torino country squire -'76 Ford LTD -'77 Chevy Impala -'77 Ford Thunderbird -'87 Chrysler LeBaron I will ad more later....

Hello all, I'm wondering what European automotive subjects you as a North American, wish to see as a 1/24 scale plastic model kit. BTW please also post the State you're living in (CA, MN, IL, MI, Alberta, Quebec, etc.....) It's no poll, just wondering what lives, on the other side of the big pond. Thanks in advance for participating!! Luc Janssens Belgium

Harry, You should see the parts flow for the assembly of a 1:1 automobile.

Last year they released the flyer, May 1st. So guess we have to wait and see, what happens in a few days from now...

Nope, Nada, zip.... Most likely in the past, sales of Beemer kits didn't meet expectations, therefore no new tools, maybe because people are buying die-casts to put on their shelves....
