MCM Avid Poster (5/6)

  1. Yes yes yes! Please bring back the NIGHT PROWLER and THUNDER Z Camaros!
  2. Excellent; will take pics ASAP, thanks!
  3. Great minds think alike. I have an IMEX 58 Caddy, and I'm using TWO Monogram 57 Nomad roofs to extend allllllll the way to the back of the car, while giving it a mild chop. Will post pic(s) if there is interest.
  4. Never got around to buying Revell's infamous 57 Nomad, though I built their mostly similar black hardtop with the C4 wheels in the late 80s. Thanks to you dudes, I'm tempted to buy this thing just to see if I can tame the beast.
  5. awwwww yisssssss
  6. Hello Jordan, Adam, I think you're both right! I zoomed into the photo, and it may be a reincarnation of the old "Amigo Pack" kits, with the little dudes inside the box. I'm guessing the area at the top-right is actually a window where the 1:64 will eventually go, though for now it looks like we're just seeing sprues in behind. Thank you both, I hope this makes sense! Looking forward to getting this one!
  7. Thanks, Jordan, for your awesome review and pics! I've never built a diecast kit before, and this looks like a fine one to start with, thanks again!
  8. The 91 S-10 in the upper-right; it looks like it says something something DIE-CAST at the top of the box. Is this going to be a METAL-bodied kit? Hopefully it will be a reissue of this plastic kit!
  9. Agree 128%. These kits were way before my time, and only if/when HPI Guy does an unboxing/build do I get any sense of what is included, and what I might do to put my own spin on it. I very much appreciate Chris' Mooneyes dragster build, and that is one Atlantis model I plan to get. I've not seen anyone review their Yellow Fever Fiat, and I'm somewhat interested in getting that one. In general, I'm very critical of Atlantis' illustrations/paintings, graphic design and box marketing. They need to do a much better job selling to normies, casuals, and the curious. A few years back, a lot of builders were unpleasantly surprised by Atlantis' ex-Revell 57 Caddy, not knowing its super-vintage origins, the fact it had a multi-piece body and plastic tires, or that it was molded in red. Knowing is half the battle.
  10. Super excited to get all 3 of these; great job, cats!
  11. I've not seen Stranger Things, and I'm no BMW expert. When I search for an 83 733 Beemer, I see something that looks quite a bit like Monogram's old 635 CSi. It's a great kit, 75 parts sounds about right, and if they didn't sell it off to Atlantis, that could be the one. Throw in the Group 2 fender flares and rear wing, and it'd be a must-have.
  12. Will do, Brain, thank you! Almost done trimming and gluing all the subassemblies, working on the boom and rigging and stuff out back. I owe you the world for the idea for the snowplow, thanks! I've never weathered anything before, so this should be fun!
  13. Awhile back, Luka Cee deep dived into the 78 - 81 Camaros, comparing several MPC kits to real cars for reference. Worth a look, and should be somewhat relevant for the Monogram and Revell kits, too.
  14. Got mine yesterday, along with the 72 Ranger snowplow. Thanks to you cats, gonna build this wrecker with the plow. It's my first Moebius, and I'm impressed. Finished the engine, now working on the interior. The plan is to paint and weather it, missing hood and headlight, to look like Tow Mater (but sans eyes or teef), and a shiny new yellow plow. Great job, Moebius! Gone git 'er done, good buddy!
  15. Very nice, but where are the 3 seashells?
