I must get these kits when they come out again. I did own a copy of the older release for about 20 minutes ones. Bought it from a guy in our modellingclub at a meeting and then sold it to another guy a less than half an hour later for the same money. Easy come, easy go I guess...

Here is some pictures of my 1:43 die-cast Le Dandy coupe, sold by Editions Atlas in their Classic Sports Cars series. I get these models on a subscibtion so I get a new one every month but I do belive you can pick them up on Ebay.

Tamiya Mercedes 300SL Announced, new pics added to OP
Atmobil replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
This one looks spectacular, never knew about this 1:32 kit. -
I have a 1:43 diecast of a DS Coupe called Le Dandy, I belive it was made by Chapron. As I see it the two most obvious versions apart from the one already on the way would be the facelifted post 67 version and the Safari (wagon), in a way that could be 3 versions as you would have two wagons (pre and post 67) aswell as the two sedans.

Ford F350 camper
Atmobil replied to Atmobil's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Thank for the comments It is to late to alter the wheelopenings at this stage. I have realized that the camper part is probably 15-20 years to old for the truck. I guess I can claim that someone has moved the chassismounted camper over from an older truck -

Maybe I'm strange but I find the 300SL a lot more exiting than both twins and FF and Aventador. I guess it's just a different form of taste. Some people like it and some people don't. -

Another little update on this one, I have started to make and install curtains. Made from normal copypaper and a floralpattern image I found in a googlesearch. I have used woodglue and water to make it stay wrinkled and hung them from 0.8mm brassrod. -
I have a feelin the Ferguson tractor is going to be a big hit. I will have to get several of them. A quick count on the models dissplayed at the show and I get 10 kits that I'm going to buy when they reach the shelfs and there is more kits on the way that is not at that show. All in all, a very good time to be a modelbuilder now

This reminds me of that russian guy that built a Rolls Royce Phantom out of a Mercedes W124....and then there was this guy that built a Lamborghini Countach replica in his basement and had to dig up the garden and make a hole in the wall to get it out. I guess, if you don't build models and you'r tired of the wifes nagging this will be the outcome.

Atmobil replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Yes, a Pagoda would be great, even greater for me personally would be a W110 Heckflosse/Fintail as I own a 1:1 1965 190. I would also like to see the W111 coupe and cabriolet models. But I guess it will be just a dream. I'm deffinantly buying this new 300SL. I'm still kicking myself for not buying the 1:16 Minicraft kit some years ago when I found it at 70% discount, at that price is was about half the price of a normal AMT 1:25 kit but I had already spent to much money that day and had to back off. -
Yes please I already got the fourgonette version so I guess I will need this one aswell. What about building a wrecker out of it, with a ordinary 2cv hooked on the back?

Atmobil replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I agree about the E-type, that is a car that should be made in to a new kit. I have a gluebomb of the old Heller roadster E-type and once also had the Monogram coupe but both of them look very off in the front. -

Very interesting news! I think my old AMT kit will stay in it's box. Will have to get one of these, maybe I could use one extra kit as donor for my Airtrax Mercedes W111 kit aswell. -

Atmobil replied to Atmobil's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Here is a small update, I have tried to get a better woodlike color as the one before was to dark in my eyes. I have painted with humbrol 61 and MIG Brown wash. And here is one of the sides of the camper, painted in a "chrome" paint that I think make it look a bit like aluminium with chromefoil around the windows and on other bits.
