  1. That's beautiful! Great job.
  2. That is just b i t c h i n ' ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Too goooooood.
  3. Beautiful!!
  4. Cool! Good job to both of you! But ... it needs dingleberries!
  5. Well, there you go! 'Nuff said. Thems that makes the rules gets to change the rules or dump the rules if'n thems wants ta! Just like it always works: Doesn't matter what they write in the rules, it's all in how they interpret it or enforce it. Or not. {And, we can all show them! If we only enter kits we already have, this big 'ole contest will result in zero bump in new sales! That'll show 'em! Just wait 'til next year.} PS: Good one, alarmstrong! Good one!!
  6. Very nice, Mark!
  7. Amazing! ... the stuff we thought was cool 'way back then.
  8. Way too much work. I just put a dab of epoxy on the rim and elongate it with a toothpick. Let it set up and touch it with a bit of aluminum paint. Voila!
  9. Buy one, JW! Then I'll come over and use yours!!!
  10. Also, for a period of time they were out of stock. The previous run had been sold and depleted, so the only place you could find the trailers was second-hand (eBay) or in older hobby shops that had not sold them all. Good to know Galaxie has run some more! They are great trailers!
  11. Well, apparently the world was ... the three kits you mentioned (in case you can't count) are the top three grossers this year ... I don't buy die casts (note the correct spelling). And I have much more than just half a brain. Or are you actually saying that only people with only half a brain make up the die cast market's constituency? I guess you're referring to Revell. Let's see ... they've been around for 60 some years. You're certain they'll be broke in less than two years. Okay. We'll write that down and check back with you. But you're probably, right, of course ... they've recently produced the top two selling NEW TOOL kits of the past year and they're probably teetering on the brink of failure. There just isn't even any way to address such a stupid, insulting, offensive and outrageous comment. Unless one was a moderator and could dump your vapid post into the literary latrine. Perhaps you'd find yourself happier on the Die Cast Digest forum?
  12. They probably won't. The wheel/tire set would probably have to be priced at $10-15. They can sell whole kits more easily than having to charge that much for a wheel & tire set. As long as the RR is new and hot, it'll sell a bunch more than wheel/tire sets.
  13. Decent!
  14. If you don't spray the insides with PAM, it's hard to get your breadloaf out of it after you bolt it up, put the carbs on, and make a 1/4 mile run.
  15. I'm IN for ALL of those, Terry. (Well, maybe not the TBird, but certainly ALL the rest!) I just can't believe the Plymouth and the Jeeps have not already graced the plastic kit shelves. Especially the Willys station wagon genre. There's already a very nice SpecCast diecast which could be converted easily to plastic.
  16. Well, I guess when you're in the "50+ core age group" you and your cronies can look forward to all the scale old 70's and 80's and 90's "vintage" japallacs, rice-burners, and phartcanmobiles you can handle! And all the young pups will be complaining the model companies are catering to you old geezers and aren't manufacturing enough "vintage" rat rod C-7 Vette kits or led sled lorider jelly bean Taurus kits or Crown Vic drifter kits.
  17. Nice recovery.
  18. Cool!
