Round2/ AMT '55 Chevy Nomad Wagon Kit Coming in 2023
stavanzer replied to stavanzer's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Awesome News! This kit is now complete! Thank You! -
I've got two older (molded in Red) Monogram '57 Chevies with those wheels, with that problem. Not Sure why that kit does that, but almost every one has those sink marks. I just use other wheels, but not everybody can get spares.

Not Sure, Daniel. But, the AWB Fans are pretty good about staying on top of kit releases, so keep reading here, and there will be news about it. It will be in the "Car Kit News & Reviews" section when the release date is announced. I'll guess Maybe 2nd quarter 2023, but I could easily be wrong.

Now, it looks like we may get this Drag Team in the upcoming Future. No One from Round2 has said anything of course (nor do I expect them to), but the AWB Chevelle is coming out, the trailer mold is in use, and the '63 Impala got a fresh re-tool a few years ago. It would be great to have both a Ford and GM/Chevrolet Team, to build.

Round2/ AMT '55 Chevy Nomad Wagon Kit Coming in 2023

If any of my models from when I was 14 still existed, I'd never show them in public, they were so awful! -
Hey, Revell put the spare tire in the Proper Place! Now, I'll have to get this one too. It looks more Like a Traditional 'Landy to me, now.

Nothing 'Sick' or 'Wrong' about it to me, Snake! Genuine Survivor, and I like the stance. -
Roden Opinion
stavanzer replied to Mike 1017's topic in WIP: All The Rest: Motorcycles, Aviation, Military, Sci-Fi, Figures
Roden kits can be very, very 'fiddly" to build. Fit is especially sensitive to sprue nubs that stick up, and even the smallest interference from cutting and sanding. Plus, they tend to have lots of small parts in a tiny space. You might see if you can leave out smaller, unseen or hard to see parts, to provide more clearance. Also, see if you can find somebody on Youtube, who has built that kit, and see if they had the same issues. Sadly, sometimes, it is not you, it is the kit. If you have to, fettle the parts down to get a fit. I've built some Roden 1/72 WW1 fighters (the Junkers "J" series) and the fit fought me the whole way. Other builders did not have the problems I had, so I guess I may just be 'Ham-Fisted' in my building techniques. Sorry, I could not be more help. -

It is old AMT, It may not fit like a Modern Kit. I still want one. -

Red Glass, Re-tooled Chrome! Even Better Than I had Hoped! Bring it on. -
Buried in all the new product photos, did anybody notice the Wompin' Wagon '55 Box Art in one display? That Box Art is hard to miss. (Original Box Art Shown) Give me this kit! 6 Fresh Tires, New Decals and all the Drag Parts! I've been waiting for Round2 to finally release this kit. It will sell Very Well, I predict.

Nice! What kit did you start with? -
B-17 and P-63 King Cobra gone for ever
stavanzer replied to Mike 1017's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Many of those B-52's have been that way for over 35 years. I saw some of them in 1985. The intact airframes provide parts to the current fleet. (In fact, the USAF "re-generates" one of the lower time planes every now and then) -
Don for the Win!

Very Nice Bug!

Moebius 1964 Nova SS - first detailed look inside the box...
stavanzer replied to tim boyd's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
This Kit is almost here. I wonder what extra parts it has? Or, is everything in the other kits already, just used differently?
