  1. Maybe start a poll Rob, to find out what kids of the '70s would like to see kitted, and how big of a buying power that group is
  2. I asume it will be tough to re-gain the shelf space of Hobby Lobby and the like, once the current stock evaporates....
  3. My sincere condolenses Greg
  4. A few years ago, Revell Germany had a online wish list, wonder where that went, and if it was usefull or too manipulated, and therefore dumped.
  5. Rob....you and others may not know this, but the Opel logo is a Blitz (lightning) therefore my comment
  6. Probbably a group of Opel fans who wanna see more Opel model kits.
  7. My kid (age 10), built some kits with my help, but looks he's more interested in Lego, that it is untill my wife bought him a Cat. Who knows maybe the cat will turn him into a Kat later on.....
  8. Indeed, more then double the price from 2001, for what....new improved decals and better tires...while Revell sells their all new kits for €25.00 (RG) or €33 (R-M)
  9. Great build! It also shows that this kit has much more potential then, DOH or Goon car. IMHO Round-2 should take a look at the box-art of the Yodel Monaco/Fury kits for inspiration, and your build too of course
  10. Good catch, for those who don't see it, look at the script on the faux wood trimpanel above the glovebox
  11. think it has something to do with operating a cement mixer...or a cement pump....
  12. Like these big boats of the '70s....think Air Trax has a resin kit of this one. Edit, here's a pic of it..
  13. No need of both, I'm high on life
  14. I'm guessing that by the time the general public knew about it, everything was sorted out.
  15. a '69 (I think) Ford F100...near the Antwerp beltway, no pics, as it was going in the oposite direction.
  16. It was the premier 1/25th scale truck kit, from Amt, the first edition came without a sleeper, (but IIRC there was a order form inside that kit to obtain one) but the second edition did. Then the kit got forgotten all about, but resurfaced a couple of years ago, when Round-2 ordered tool sampling to have an acurate inventory, it was hiding in plain site.
  17. Steve Goldman knows more about this one, but IIRC Ernie Petit (former LIndberg) wanted to start up this company and release kits from former Jo-Han tooling, tooling which survived the looting of the company, but like anything Jo-Han, it was like opening a can of worms and the project was cancelled. A decade or so later Moebius tried the same, but they too failed in their attempt. So kids....what did we learn here? Anything Jo-Han is contaminated, it will never, ever come back, there more chance, that one of you who're reading this, will win the powerbal jackpot. There I said it Ps. If one of you do win the powerball, I'll take 20´%, because my positive vibes facilitated your win.
  18. Well the American managers who worked out the deal, took their money and ran...I don't see them getting the blame?! The implosion of Revell was all Hobbico, also a foreign company?.... Please stop this nonsense, there's enough BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH in this world already
  19. Thought Daimler Benz was a automotive company...must have been mistaken
  20. Håkan, from what I've understand Paul has a medical condition, which makes it hard for him to cap uncap IIRC Paul, maybe it's easier to just uncap meaning using no capital letter, would that work for you? (all caps is difficult to read, qnd is considered shouting in internet lingo) Thanks
  21. Looks like a photo from an original sales brochure
