G'day everyone new to the forum
stavanzer replied to Matt Barker's topic in Welcome! Introduce Yourself
Wow! Glad to have you here. So, the Burning Question. Do you make the Mack Truck Cab for the Mad Max-2 or as it was called here, "The Road Warrior"? -
I wish Round2 would explore more of these Tow Vehicle/Trailer/Boat-Racer-Dragster combinations. There is some nifty stuff still hiding in the toolbank, and these Combo kits seem like agreat way to "Test-the-Waters" on how popular a kit might be without have a full scale production run. The '60/63 Fords like like a great choice for a Set, especially the 1960 since it already has a trailer. I'd pair the 1960 Ford with the Double Dragster kit. 4 Kits in one box, but Combined with a new, expanded decal sheet like Round2 does so well now, and I think you have a Winner.

You are correct about the Grille/Cowl mismatch on the '33/34 Fords. My Preference is the '28/29 Model A grille. It somehow is more aesthetically pleasing to my eyes than the bigger '32 grille

I just got my Tudor. It looks even better in person than it does in the Video.

Well, AMT Did! I like the Engine Colour Info earlier in this thread.

Thanks! I'll be getting some later. -
Ace said it better than I can. These are Awesome! Watercolours always caused me grief in Art Class.

1992 Ford F-150 XL Work Truck
stavanzer replied to av405's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
This is Just Awesome! That looks like the highway work trucks I remember back in the day. And, yes, when Brand New that is how they would have looked. (for about a week) -

Not sure Where to look for those decals. It is going to be aftermarket, but I'm not up on who might have done, or still be doing them.

I'm with You on this one! This might actually make financial sense to tool up. You could sell it as a Race Car, Police, and regular street car.

Try This thread, and Vintage Racing Miniatures. Here is the Link to VRM. Last Update was 2021. They may be Defunct. Worth a try though. https://www.v-r-m.com/ https://www.v-r-m.com/vrm-003---mustang-gt350r.html -

The problem with AI as purely Large Language Models
stavanzer replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
"Are Hallucinations Popping the A.I. Bubble?" Not on your life. It will never happen. Too Many Young Techies have too much of their Ego invested in A.I. Uber Alles. Too Many Investors (Corporate & Vulture) have too much Money, Ego, & Reputation invested in A.I. Too Many People who are convinced that they are the Arbiters of the Future have too much of their Ego & Reputation invested in A.I. This Bubble will have to Catastrophically Destroy Billions of Borrowed Dollars, and Several Reputations and Huge Numbers of Fragile Egos, before it goes away. And when It finally does, the Backlash against A.I. and Tech in general will be epic. Enough to wipe away the bad, but much of the good, as well. See: "Baby/Bathwater" Silicon Valley, and It's many Disciples aren't nearly as smart as they think. They do not have nearly as much control over events as they think. And they have little knowledge of the world outside Universities, Cities, and Think Tanks. The last 10 years has proven that handing the keys to the world to these folks, has provided some great video games, some horrible side effects, and lots of Social Dysfunction. Sometimes the old ways are wrong, or backwards. But, Changing them just for the sake of Change, is not working the way it was promised to us. Remember "Chesterton's Gate" -
