...............by the way, Gregory....have you heard that this kit is ACTUALLY being re released......love to hear the buzz on this...the ace...
-
.....if round2 does this, Gregory, I would buy a case...just because I would. this and all the drag team sets are the holy grails of many. even the nova awb box set is possible by replacing the nova wagon with, say, a 65 el camino with the camper. the artwork could easily be altered to use the camino as the tow car....think of it....wow. also, the 68 Shelby drag team set could be a winner for the kats as well, as the Shelby only requires a few parts restored to make it original........lets hope 2015 really is a happy plastic new year.....the ace.....

the 60s 70s era Johan sets are the best in my opinion. the shape of the spokes, detail of the dust cap, and general appearance have always stood the test of time. I am not certain if any resin ones are made...sorry....the ace....

frankly, that's why I never buy anything Revell.....and probably never will.

I too, feel they are very pricey...yet I envy you guys, in the U.S., as our shops have them priced at 19.99 to 21.99 here in Canada. all our hobby items are more here, but as for these tire and parts packs, there is no line up at our shops to buy them, I assure you. as another member stated , the tire packs were 8.99 to 9.99 when first around, a couple of years back. I think Round2 feels that all their product fills a specialty market, so reflect that with your price point. could be difficult in this day and age if the prices in general keep climbing. I just yesterday visited a shop about 30 miles from here that I have not been in for about 5 years or so. most all his AMT cars were on at 40% off, so I took advantage and blew 250 bucks. however, all those parts packs up at the checkout area were just collecting dust....the ace...

........AMT 332-200 69 COBRA HARDTOP.............out in 69 only, sedan body, not fastback,...yellow drag car on box with flat black hood stripe....favorite of mine always, and I think the Kats could re issue it, as the body was never butchered later for this or that, far as I remember.....the ace.........

Tamiya Base Coat/Clear Coat (Metallic Orange)
AC Norton replied to taaron76's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
tim, if you spray the clear orange over silver base, you will get a nice candy orange effect.....but, by overspraying that combo with Tamiya gloss pearlcoat, you will get a lovely met. finish with candy under it....its truly a great combo....just a thought....the ace..... -
