Well done looks great. Is the Heller kit the same as the Revell one?
-
Beautiful build of a beautiful car.
-
Looks really good. Good to see it is possible to get such a good result even with all problems you discovered with this kit.
-
Did they stop doing it? At least in previous videos they have shown the parts trees long enough to pause.
-
Admittedly I know nothing about the process of manufacturing new tools but how hard can it be to get the a car body correct with the technology available today? Understandable if it was much harder 50-60 years ago. We can only hope that the new E-Type is as accurate as we always wanted.
-
Would be nice to see some of them as kits for adults but don't see it happening. Quick build is like Lego isn't it?
-
Great build, I look forward to the rest. I started to build this kit a couple of years ago but paused it when I had problems fitting the body to the interior and chassis maybe I applied too thick paint. Anyway watching your build got my interest back in having another go with mine.
-
So that explains why there are so few new tools lately, too bad. Very happy they are doing a new E-Type though and I want the T2 as well even though it's an easy click.
-
I used to own the Aurora kit but sold it. I also have the Heller kit both the Coupe and the Cabriolet. It seems all but the Gunze tool (which I don't know anything about) are from the 60's-70's one would think they would be able to do a more accurate kit with today's technology.
-
Says the E-Type is a new tool. Got this newsletter with a small photo of the T2: https://www.revell-news.de/display.php?M=21252&C=8e59249e112b9ecc742ea2dcbbab8f7f&L=2&N=249

Thanks for the heads up, maybe it is a good idea to stay away from Renwal all together. Almost bought the Ferrari 275 GTB a week ago glad I didn't.
-
Hmm ok so that kit is that bad? I have wanted to buy the old Revell reissue for awhile but if it is no good then I will skip it.
-
Very interested in the E-Type all the ones available now are very old tools right? I am also interested in the big scale 300-SL.
-
Safe to assume no engine? It looks pretty good.
-
I have to do the same, I have lost control.
-
I bought the Italeri 1/12 Fiat 500 a couple of days ago looks like a good kit. I hope Italeri will keep tooling up new 1/12 cars.
-
Wasn't the 1/12 Mustang just a scaled up version of the 1/25? Not more detailed and no openable doors like one would expect from that scale? I hope they do reissue it though I still want it.

Really want one of these. Won enough money to buy one the other day think I will. -
True just have to live with the side opening boxes.
-
Always wondered why those premium kits don't get reissued. Maybe tools are not around anymore.
-
Hate to complain but that is not an interesting start for 2020.
-
Is this based on the exact same car as the trumpeter kit? If so I also wish they would have chosen a different one but at the end of the day I am happy as soon as I see a new tool.
-
You can get great print quality from cheap Chinese printers for example the Creality printers. Even the resin printers are becoming cheap and those are awesome for our hobby with all the small detailed parts. I will wait a while before I get one of those though as the cheap ones still seem to be a bit unreliable.
-
Great will pick one up. What is the recommended truck kit for this trailer?
-
Looks great. I also bought the new reissue and look forward to building it. Bought the other one as well with different bumpers.
