They should've read the 250k question 'Nuff said.

They all want one, but only with the 40% off coupon, or discounted. C’mon Casey........you should’ve known that

Have that one too, IMHO the most beautifull design Pontiac did.

MPC '66 Bonneville conv. will I build it, dunno...

Anyway you look at it, the second gen Charger is one heck of a beautiful vehicle, and your build does it justice.

while the years have flown by, I remember it, as it was yesterday...

It was 2010, and we probably did, cuz picked up a toy truck for my then 2 year old son, in '15, I was again in Chicago and we again went to one, remember we were checking out the camper kit from the Breaking bad series,..

Believe me, when I say, that I know how you must feel, cuz a year or so ago I passed the old GM Plant-2 here in Antwerp where I worked for over 20 years.....it shut down in the winter of 2010, in it's heyday 14.000 people worked there, the biggest annual output was 240.000 units.

New Revell Germany kits, got more expensive (by €5.00) in the past months and cost about the same as amt kits over here (€29.99 Revell - €33.00 Amt)

They also released the '90s Ford F-150 club cab, but again these are versions for the European market, if a US distributor picks them up and sells them in the US, of course they're going to be pretty expensive, compared to Revell kits produced packaged in and coming directly from China. BTW this is nothing new, cuz remember when visiting my friends of VLS (later bought by Squadron) back in the early nillies, they too had re-boxed by Revell AG, Revell-Monogram kits on their shelves, and yes they were also expensive.... Still to early to know what's going to happen, and furthermore with recent trade wars between the US and the rest of the world, no one knows what's going to be the best way to get non US produced goods into the US in a economic way.....only the guys in wall street know and will play on that knowledge, to make lots of money, Joe Average world wide will pick up the tab.

Revell Germany orders Revell-Monogram kits as bagged shots from China, which then get repackaged together with a euro instruction sheet and decals by Cartograph in a Revell Germany wrapper, in their production facility in Poland, to be sold in the European market place. If US distributors order these euro spec US kits, then of course they will be much more expensive then those produced and marketed by Revell-Monogram.

Yes the Falken version is new.

Huh? Thought this was released last fall? ( the Spa Francorchamps version that is)

I've read, that the recently released '70 is better in that area.

It looks fantastic Bill!

Why not drill the holes, put in aluminum tubing and fill with clear mixed with amber/red?

Can you say...Sabotage!!!

Thanks for the input guys, so for a Mack with dumper body, one can use the Amt "R" cabin with the Mpc "DM 600" chassis (don't like the offset cabin

Guys, what's the difference between Mack's "R" vs "DM" designation? Thanks in advance for your input.

Revell Germany can also sent bagged shots to and have them wrapped in the US...it happened before the implosion of Hobbico and can happen again...also Revell Germany nor the investment company had anything to do with the bankrupty of Hobbico..so why the bad blood?

I can relate to that statement, but if one takes for instance the recent Revell '76 Gran' Torino S&H, a lot of siblings can be done, all of which use the same or simmilar chassis and drive-train....also on the 3D files one doesn't have to start from scratch but copy --> paste and adjusts...sure the tooling is still the most costly aspect of it all, but with clever tool design one can eliminate waste to a minimum.

Did a a little back tracking, and you're right, hmm...two things could've happended - not enough coffee - too much coffee

Indeed

Steven, I'm glad we somewhat agree

IMHO A lot will depend on the evolution on pricing of auto kits in the US, and the notion that a company like Round2 can undermine any effort of tooling up something new, just by re-releasing old wine in new bottles, undercutting any chance of turning a profit. A reason too, IMHO exclusive rights when having the license to tool up something are the way to go...but come at a added cost too, which brings us back to my first statement, a lot will depend on the evolution of pricing....
