Any updates on the Moebius 72 Maverick?
stavanzer replied to GMP440's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I want to build this one. I hope the kit has the green stripes. I'll build it with a 6 or a V8. doesn't matter to me. I love the paint and the contrast to the dog dish caps. Edited to add: If I ever get a 1-1 Maverick it will be painted exactly this way. A real factory Colour Option, so It is a completely legitimate choice, but one that stands out a Mile Away! -

DJ, Thanks. No Ollies in California, sadly. So, much as I want a couple of those tractors, I'm not able to get them. -

stavanzer replied to GMP440's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I'll be happy, just to get a kit of the Maverick. Stock will be fine, but look at Moebius' track record on kits.I am sure that there will be stock and competition versions produced. What kind of Racer? No one except Eric knows for sure, and he is very wisely not saying much. We will know, when Moebuis chooses to share with us. And for the "No Race Version, No Sale" crowd, if there was only a stock version produced, the Resin and 3D aftermarket guys would have you covered in about 90 days. That's the way the world works nowadays. Besides. Within 10 minutes of the First Post here on what kits are coming, somebody will pop up to complain that whatever is shown, is not the version he was hoping for. It will have the Wrong Engine, Wrong Wheels, Incorrect Decals, or some other "Fatal Flaw" which renders a Brand New, Freshly tooled kit a complete failure for that person. The Rest of us will buy many copies......- 106 replies

Upcoming revell kit the 78 jeep j-10 with camper
stavanzer replied to 66c10's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
RMR lists a couple of Wagoneer kits. This is the only one with a photo. All are listed out of stock. I think he casts to order. https://rmrmodels.com/products/1963-jeep-wagoneer?_pos=4&_sid=b341c0635&_ss=r -

Oddly enough, me too, Sid. Maybe we should try to find a 3D print and share the cost to get some. -

Oddly Enough, I want that hood very badly. I'd like it for a GMC pickup build I have planned. -
BJ & the Bear Super Kenworth
stavanzer replied to Mike77's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Now, that is a great Build! I love it. Good Show. -
Thanks, I was just wondering. I liked the look of the kit rims, and wondered if they were incorrect somehow.
-
Sure Looks Nice! Good Show.
-
I see you used PP Wheels. What was wrong with the Kit rims?
-
Super Sharp Build. I like the look of this car. Good Show.

I got to see this build in Person at our club meeting. https://modelingmadness.com/review/civil/genav/sumgoose.htm

Mopar Guys you have finally got your wish

Hoo Boy! What a great idea.(sarc) Does MOPAR hate just their Fanboys that much? -
Stay far away from the Lindberg kit. It is an old Ideal Toys kit. Baseball sized rivets, poor shapes, and overall clunky design.
-
What a Glorious Replica! It looks Showroom Fresh! Good Show.

History of Monogram's 1955 Ford Trucks
stavanzer replied to Fabrux's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I agree. There is so much that could be done to freshen up these kits with Minimal effort. Just stock hubcaps and steelies on the usual re-tread ex-Monogram tires would help, and as you note a Four Barrel Carb on the 289 would be great. Add in a Ladder and a couple Racks, and you could sell it to a whole new generation of builders. It doesn't have to be Stock, it just has to look Stock. (from the outside, anyway). The guys who want all stock will have to convert it. With Resto-Mods and Resto-Rods being popular Revell could surf the trends. -
I suppose this trend is sticking around?

Thanks for the Pics Michael. That helps. -

Finnish Master Juha Airio did many years ago..... I think it was in SAE around '98. The Jetrolet. Scale Auto Enthusiast issue 114, April 1998. Juha Airio's Jetrolet Anti-Gravity car. -
History of Monogram's 1955 Ford Trucks
stavanzer replied to Fabrux's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
It's about time for Revell to dust off the tooling for the '55 Panel Truck version of this tool, and give us a fresh version. If they threw in some Stock(ish) looking wheels and tires, it would probably do pretty well. Add in some Light Commercial Decals to sweeten the deal.
