  1. I am new to the forum and just wanted to tell you that I have really enjoyed your reviews. Its great to see the kits opened up and looking at the parts! I also wanted to comment on something that I am sure has been talked about a lot. This is just my opinion but I really do not understand why Revell would invest new tooling dollars in the Scooby Doo van. I do not think that the Polar Lights kit was that great of a seller that we would need another. I bought the Polars lights kit to build with my daughter when it came out and we had fun with it, it did not spark any interest in her to build models. I do not think I will be buying any of these! I have bought some of the other Revell snap kits like the Raptor and the new Mustang and the Audi, I have nothing against snap kits as long as it is a good subject! hpiguy, I apologize if i put this comment in the wrong spot, maybe I should have started a new thread. Again I think it was a great review!!!

  3. Another good paint stripper that I use is ZEP floor wax stripper that you can get at Home Depot for around $10 a gallon. Soak the body in it and it usually de-bonds (if thats a word!) the paint from the body. I have had no issues with plastic damage. I have not used this on resin parts so as always test before using! Also wear gloves! I saw that you have already stripped your project but I just wanted to share this!
  4. I had purchased the Baldwin Chevelle because the box listed it as 1/25. I thought that was a new tool. Is it the Monogram 1/24 kit with some new parts? I dont have a 1/24 Chevelle kit to compare it too. Thanks!
  5. Has anyone heard who's car will be first to be released?
  6. Hi, I just joined the forum, I live in Pittsburgh PA and mainly build/collect (mainly collect!!)1/25 scale cars along with some aircraft. I really enjoy the kit reviews on the forum and looking at built ups, they always get a bunch of ideas! Phil
