I don't know who is calling the shots at Round 2, but they need to go. The Nova is another reissue they have butcherd. I bought 2 of them when it first came out in the 70s. It was a Pro Stock not Pro Street when it first came out. Again they have halfa$$ a pretty decent kit, they have taken the fiber glass bucket seats out and put the puffed up bucket seats in it and added mufflers and of course a new decal sheet. They screwed up the Baja Patrol reissue, and now they screwed this one up. I can not tell you when the last time I have bought a kit from them. I not going to pay the price what they want for a kit with less parts and more decals. It's beginning to be a joke.

I'm with Alan on this. I was looking forward to the Baja Patrol till I found out it's the same release as the last release and the one before just different decals. If they had included the five spokes and hadn't messed up the original box art, I would have picked up a couple

That's the very reason I haven't bought a Round 2 kit in a long while. Half ass kits, with the price we have to pay and the original pieces not included. They think they can make it right by adding printed tires and more decals. I would have liked to have bought a few, but I'll pass now. More money for Revell kits

I agree, they should have left well enough alone. I was looking forward to it. I'll pass and save my wheels for the kits that I have -
Nice build Jim, he was my favorite funny car driver when I was in my teens. I remember going to Bristol in 77 and he had was killed like two weeks prior.

John, you turn out some fantastic work. -
VERY WELL SAID. I also had the Bearcat kit when came out. I also enjoyed the series, and your right that's the only reason I got the kit. The time and money spent to develop new kits when we do get them if something is not right, the bashing begins. I understand that some are anal about things being off, but constructive criticism is the way to go instead of finger point and name calling. Sending a calm email pointing out the error's instead of (should I say hate mail?) doesn't help either side. When a subject comes out that is not favored by all, that is your right not to like it, why say it's a waste of plastic and so on. I, for one am glad that Atlantis purchased the molds, there again it's not everyone's favorite subject's it was almost like it pissed some off, there again some us of happen to like them. It is definitely a different world out there than it used to to be when I started building kits in the late 60's, but nothing stay's the same and no one stay's on top forever. And to those that said I back out of what I post, I say what I mean, and I mean what I say. I don't back up for anyone, and I can back it up. So if you have a problem send me a personal message, this board isn't the place
