Revell & Atlantis at the IPMS National Convention 2025

Because they don't look like engines... There could be anything under there. Squirrels, Nuclear Reactors, Magic Beans! They have no romance, no soul. -

The older I get the more I feel like I don't want to build an engine in anything built after the year 2000. Just too much trouble. -
I suppose this trend is sticking around?

My Truck does have a lot of Cabin noise. How did you get the sound deadening done? -

My truck (2007 Chevy) will stay with stock rims and tires for it's life. The Rims are sharp looking, and it rides and drives just fine as it is. I want to add a Brush Guard/Push Bumper and mount Fog Lights but that is about it as far as mods go. I'm too old to want to fool around with "Cool" looks anymore. If I want Cool, I'll build a model of it. -
72 Jeepster. Anyone know anything about this coming out.

My 15 yr old Grandson, is getting big into Warhammer 40K. I've decided to play with him, but the stuff is a wee bit spendy. Looking for Older builds, Opened Kit, parts boxes, Whatever. Thanks, Alan

A caster called Escort 5000 did some about 25 years ago. I have about 4 of them left. The Round2 /AMT '64 Ford Galaxie Mod Stock kit has one. Best I can do for you.

I'll be blunt in response to Tim's well spoken comments. Revell does not care.... Not at all. This is a "Contractual Obligation" model kit. No more, No less. Whether there is an actual contract or not is irrelevant. Marketing said to deliver a new model of a Mustang. Headquarters delivered the cheapest, lowest effort kit they could. Then when the Sales Dept comes back later to grouse about poor sales,HQ can tell them, "We gave you a kit. Not our fault you can't sell it. Looks like the market for American cars is dead. Can we go back to making the Tanks , Planes, and Exotic Cars that are the "Real Money Makers" and forget about the American Market?" That's my thoughts about Revell, and I'm sticking to it. Poor Ed Sexton. He's stuck working with a Euro-Centric Company that really doesn't want to know about or care about it's American origins anymore.
