The 70 Roadrunner grows on you. I actually like it better than the 68-69s.

There was a 5&10 down the road that had 1963 Johan kits until 1970. Nobody wanted them then

They won't accept Model King's money now. Why would they want mine. It's still about what the customer wants. -

I have said it before and I will say it again, Round2 needs to create something new or find old parts to make me want another box. -

I have to think the 6 cylinder is still in the tool but the plastic flow is welded off. It's nice because it is the bigger 6 , maybe good for Impalas, Camaros? -
It still comes down to the same thing; You have to make what the public wants , not try try to figure out how to market something you have to sell.

Oh, the discussion was that the 6 it was in the 64. If Modelking was selling it, there would be a six and boat. Round2 needs to throw us a bone. -

Today, the problem with model kits is it is all speculation with no guarantees. The volume is also down. The promo business subsidized mundane promo (then kits) cars that only bennifited the specific car maker. Revell has to make perfect decisions. -

To me this was always about money. "New Revell could just pick up with the Chinese suppliers where the old company just left off." I bet the '30 Ford coupe roaster is ready to go, just looking for $. -
