#1 model citizen

Me too!

Very nice! I have been working on a glue bomb Cunningham off and on for a while now. Got it with a Ebay multi-model buy and I didn’t know what it was at the time and cut down the wheels for another project. I’ve since learned about Cunningham and have acquired a parts car and an unbuilt customizing kit sans the custom parts. (It did come with the custom roof.) I hope mine will look as good. BTW there’s an article on Cunningham in the current issue of “Collectible Automobile” I just began reading!

Nice save. Great looking model! Do you have any “before” photos?

Great looking wagon!

My gf gave me this a few years ago. I think it’s a ‘53. I don’t recall the manufacturer for sure, but I think it was Star models.

Finally finished the “CaraRam” Should’ve been!

I went back to Walmart last night and did notice they had a few other Coke issues that were offered last fall. Still a different and wider selection than before. Happy hunting!

With the exception of the ‘41 Plymouth (and Coke tractor and trailer?) this is an entirely new selection. This Walmart ( the smallest in Ia.) had not offered models in the last 15+ years until last fall. They had put what hadn’t sold on clearance about a month ago (maybe 20 kits) and I figured they wouldn’t get any more until next Christmas if at all. That was until my gf came back from shopping with 4 kits and pictures of the store 4X4 display pallet. I ran right up bought 7 more and 2 display cases. May have to go back back and get more! Now if they’d only offer a real selection of model paint and accessories …

The local Walmart just got in a new selection of models!

I recall a cartoon I’d seen decades ago in a model car magazine where the wife was explaining to the used car salesman that her husband wouldn’t buy a car that hadn’t been made into a 1:25 scale model kit ?

I don’t know what happened to the quote that should have been with my post. I will assume you all can figure it out!

I have wondered that myself. The formal roof on the Galaxy just isn’t right for “Stylining”. I have always liked the Starliner roof. Decades ago I noticed a friend had the Starliner kit kicking around in his basement and begged him to sell it to me. He declined my offers but he did let me build it for him as he was not into models. (The kit must of had some sentimental attachment). It was a great kit and looked good when built. He let me keep the unused parts and he kept the box. I wanted my own ever since. When Modelhaus announced their closing I ordered a Starliner body (and about 13 other kits!) to use with the Styline kit. Maybe one of these days I will get it built (along with the others)!

Uh, if it were me I wouldn’t use a gloss clear coat before or after for a flat black surface-just flat black. But if it has to be clear coated I’d use a flat clear coat or dulcoat.

Looks even better! This one looks like it’s parked on a “rustic “ road.

The racing stripes really do make it look sporty.

Very nice and the pictures make it look very realistic even though it’s sitting on a deck rail!

Ditto!

great looking Nova. I like the wheels!

I have long wondered what the CE indicated. Thanks for the explanation!

16 months?

?What they said!

? Not #1? Just saying I somehow missed that. I have scoured their up dates and release info ever since they first announced the Buick and don’t recall ever seeing it on the pre-order. But then I don’t think I’ve ever pre-ordered anything, so maybe I’m just not the #1 model shopper??And I know you’re not my uncle!?

Wow! It was on the Atlantis pre-order page!?! I missed that!‍?‍??

That’s what I’d like to know. The last Atlantis catalog (2021) I saw listed the release date “2022”. I keep looking for it in every email they send but I have yet to see any mention of it.

I agree with the all new ‘57 Ranchero. Revell could use/modify their current ’57 tool. I would like to see the multi piece ‘57 Ranch Wagon reissued too.
