So, if you bought the new mack dm800 model kit. Would you be able to use the frame from the psystar kit for the 800 and make a mack dm800 mixer??

Just got my kit today, and after seeing the posts with the parts and instr. And seeing what's in the box, I see a similarity between the way this kit is made and the old '77 jeep cj kit. They both have individual Trim parts like hinges, lights, gas caps, interior parts, steering column, and individual chassis parts. I'm thinking we're going to see an off-road version coming down the pipeline from revell in a little while! I like what i'm seeing and if i'm right, I think that we will be seeing a lot of new things coming from them. Stephen D. Whelen36

Moebius 67-72 Ford Pick-up news
Whelen36 replied to Dave Metzner's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Dave, there were picks of the kit parts that showed 4x4 gear, these kits that are coming are all 2 wheel drive. How many more versions are coming after these if there are in fact 4x4 versions of these excellent kits?? after the fords do they think they're going to do other makes of trucks like GM or Dodge ?? -
I'de like to see both rereleases and new tool trucks, big rig and pickup/van. But one thing I noticed is people are saying round 2 is only making rereleasea they just released a snap kit of the general lee last year and it was a new tool. i know it's not a truck but it's a possible start for the future of the company. So who knows what the future may hold for them though it may be in the distance it's still a possibility now more than before.
-
Even if it didn't make a lot of money or didn't sell because of the discrepancies they wouldn't fix it, it would just get discontinued and the future line of them including any other brands like dodge or chevy, etc.... Would never come to be. Something I can fix or change ( I'm a kit badger anyways) is better than nothing new at all. Having something to work with as a base point to cut apart and change that's much cheaper than resin isn't that bad to me. This is just my opinion and I want to make sure that is out there. And yes, it should've been done right from the start.

MENG 1/24 Ford F350 Super Duty Crew Cab: Sneak Peek Pics!
Whelen36 replied to Gregg's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
They said, if I remember correctly that this was to be the first in a series of full size trucks??? If true has anybody heard if it was successful enough to continue the series, and what the next truck would be??? -
The last picture does have black front fenders Edit: never mind, I just enlargened the photos and the fenders are blue, real fun looking at photos on an iPhone. Really really small pictures Sorry, my mistake

Looking forward to seeing this in paint, Looking really good !!

I have them both ordered from mega hobby as well, good to see they're both due at the same time, Is there any chance that there are 4x4 versions in the works too???
-
Your right guy, when you said about the injection line. My mistake, that is what he said, been a while since I saw the movie, the memory isn't what it used to be LOL. Are you going to high detail the kit?? Like gauges, seatbelts, wiring???
-
I know it was a super charger set up but in the movie I remember Packard asking if the turbo pipe was ready to be put in the car, right before the wraith showed up and blew it apart. I only called it a turbo pipe because that's what I heard in the movie and wanted to make a reference point to the engine in question in the movie. Most likely just a movie mistake just like when the vette shot through the tomb stones in the graveyard with no body damage , and them passing the same ( Volvo ?? ) car in the race scenes over and over again. I'm really looking forward to seeing this completed, I think it'll look awesome
-
Why don't you just go with the engine with the turbo pipe that rug head had built for it ( the one the wraith character shot apart )? It was supposedly to go in the vette

Australian K200 Kenworth Cabover
Whelen36 replied to Diesel Jockey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I'de love to get one of these as well, if anybody has info on who's going to be offering them in the U.S. Or will ship here, please share -
That looks great, shouldn't the flashers be higher than the cab and sleeper though???? Not a tear down just a question, it really is a sharp looking rig.

MPC 1/20th Ford Van to be reissued..
Whelen36 replied to Rob Hall's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Iron sides, that kit was supposed to be based off the tv show. The show starring the actor from perry mason, I can't think of his name now. -
Why didn't you mold up new a-arms for the Silverado ? Are they molded to the frame? Just wondering, think i'de like to try that, that Silverado kit was just screaming to be a 4x4. Really nice work.
