  1. Thanks, Chuck! That explanation is clear enough now. I don't need the Photos.
  2. I play MInecraft with my Grandsons.
  3. Any Pics of what you are talking about Chuck? I'm not sure which parts you are referring to.
  4. I will plant a flag here, and bet that it will be this kit, with a new hood.
  5. Those 5 spoke wheels are in the old Revell snapper too, so no real telling what will be in the box. But, I think that kit has T-Tops. Going to be a treat to see what is really in the box.
  6. Except for the Blazer, I am guessing that all the other kits in this series are slightly re-vamped versions of existing tooling.
  7. Not so much fake, as a very specific shell, that may have been unique to time and place. I doubt that there were more than a couple hundred made, and the odds of any surviving are long. I think that it is not a very useful shape, and I don't think it lasted for long. The best place to look for ads for it would be the back section of Popular Mechanics magazine from 1958-1963.
  8. Sharp Build. Daddy-Daughter Victory! Good Show!
  9. Man! What an Awesome bit of 1970's IMSA Overkill. I'd buy a bunch of those!
  10. Very Sharp Builds. I really the green colour you chose. A Matching Pair! Good Show!
  11. I'd fill both windows in the Doors with sheet plastic and then scare up some of the clear Van Windows in the Dome or Teardrop shapes, and inset them into the doors.
  12. IMHO, this is a needless Own Goal for Round2. They've never done this in kits before. Only Moebuis does it, and It is not a popular feature for them. Combined with too stiff tires, and you have more time spent getting acceptable wheels than you really need to invest. I hope this is not the start of a trend. It is not a show stopper for sure, but why needlessly complicate a pretty simple process.
  13. Not really outlawed, as much as the number of buyers, who wanted one after seeing one in action was always self-limiting. There are always a few, but stunts like the Rocket Axle were niche, of a niche market.
  14. Not Gonna happen, Bob. Too much many to be saved for the CEO and Stockholders.
  15. Trust Juan Browns to have the scoop. I check his channel several times a week. He is one of the best commentators on Flying out there.
  16. Indeed! That is exactly what it looks like. Ugh!
  17. Yep. You are meant to use which ever wheels you don't use on the car. I think it an odd choice. I presume that tooling costs, or parts count limitations dictated that choice. I hope that future issues of the trailer get dedicated wheels.
  18. Three winners, here. I'm all over that Boss Nova Wagon. & that '57 Chrysler Custom. The Decals and tires will determine if I want another 39/40 Ford kit. The last one was great, but I'm not sure that this issue will be one I want. The Boss Nova, though has been getting stupid money on the secondary market and I sold mine off. I'lll be happy to give Round2 the sale instead of some on-line vendor. I hope they manage to get some "Wompin' Wagon" decals in there along with the Boss Nova decal.
  19. Indeed, they are. I'm sure that many new modelers have never seen these kits, and would be thrilled to get them. I know that I'm in for a few just to get fresh tires and fresh decals.
  20. I'm sorry, Tim. You were indeed first.
  21. And, Chris has the Build on This one, Too!
  22. Great News, Erik! I can see that cab & chassis under many other beds.
