1-9-6-4 Mercury COMET from Moebius???

Humm...... The AMT Plymouth MoPower funnycar, seems that it has a very similar chassis-engine to AMT's "Nitro-Charger" funnycar? That Nitro-Charger is the second or third model kit that I bought, back in the mid 1970s. Still have it.

Of those, in my humble opinion, I'd say that the MPC '74 Charger and MPC '72 Road Runner would be the most probable reissues, then the MPC "Vette Van", MPC "Custom Corvette" (ex Mako-Shark II) and MPC Pontiac Fiero. And since Round2 has reissued all the AMT big rigs recently (exept their Kenworth T600 and Canepa), they are left with the ERTL Internationals F-2575, F-2674 and F-4270 that haven't been reissued in a loooonnng time.

That Revell "Can Do" towing sure is MORE than ripe for a reissue!!! Come-on, Revell!

Sure would be nice if AMT would include the stock building option with their '66 Barracuda Hemi Hustler. I doubt they would, but who knows?

That Saturn-V rocket, It looks like it is a 4D-master (or Aoshima) kit, 1/100 scale. Seems they also did the Space Shuttle, in 1/72 scale seen on that video.

Speaking of old vintage kits; I wonder what happened to Palmer molds. It is my understanding that Palmer (and Pyro) ended up with Lindberg, as per that youtube video: And since Lindberg is now Round2, and seems Round2 sold a bunch of old molds to Atlantis.....

Is it the same top for both of those 1965?

Any news or rumors on what Round2 is gonna reissue next year? Here's my list of possibilities: MPC: 1971 Mercury Montego (stock) 1978 Chevette 1984(?) Ford EXP Corvette Mako-Shark II (back to "stock" from the "Custom Corvette") Corvette Cosma-Ray show car Corvette Vette-Van 1982(?) Chevrolet Cavalier 1978(?) Chevrolet Monza 1932 Chevrolet roadster (with street rod option) 1970 Pontiac GTO 1971 Plymouth Road-Runner 1974 Dodge Charger any year Pontiac Fiero 1974 Plymouth Baracuda Pro-Street 1982 Corvette "Superfly" 1972(?) Pontiac Grand-Prix 1978 Mustang Cobra (with Pro-Stock options) 1978 Ford Pinto hatchback (with Pro-Stock options) 1968-69 Chevrolet Impala IMC/Testors: "Love Machine" - "Super Van" (custom van by Georges Barris) "Miss Budweiser" drag race boat 1966 (?) Ford GT-40 Avenger GT-12 (kit car based on VW beetle) Dodge Cabover truck (this is a ghost kit, but we never know...) AMT: "Farah's Foxy Vette" Corvette (based on Eckler's Corvette) Ford 6-wheels van Econoline Chevy van camper (with raised top and full interior) AMC Matador "X" Dodge Deora (last edition) 1967-68 Ford Galaxie 1957 Chevy Nomad 1/16 American Lafrance pumper fire truck There is also ERTL's Internationals trucks F-4270, F-2575 and F-2674, all ripe for reissues!

A few old Renwal catalogs: https://boxartden.com/collections/gallery/index.php/Vintage-Model-Kit-Catalogs-1950-1999/Renwal

Sure would be nice for it to be reissued as as Police/taxi!

Speaking of Revell's 2024 kits; what about they reissue their fantastic Peterbuilt 3-axles "can do" tow-truck; it sure is ripe for a reisue! https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-7541-peterbilt-wrecker--122635 Their "Marmon" truck would also be nice to be reissued. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-07429-marmon-conventional--765244 I sure do hope that there's gonna be other versions of their new 1985 Blazer; like a regular pickup with 8-foot fleetside bed!

I wonder if Moebius plan to do a Mercury version of their 64-66 Ford pickups also. That sure would be very nice!

YES!!!! Would be nice if the hood and tailgate and grill and Mercury parts would be available separately.

What are #4 and #6? (from left) #6 kinda looks like a 64 Pontiac??? WE WANT TO KNOW!

Back in the mid 1970's, Lindberg did a few 1/32 kits, very crude kits. Among them a Grand-Prix: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/lindberg-2113-pontiac-grand-prix--1148716 I wonder if those old kits are with Atlantis now.

Seems to me that it's gonna be a 1-TON 4x4? Am I correct?

Could that be because it is gonna be a MERCURY truck? Sure would be NICE!!

Oh, I forgot the AMT 71 Chevy van WITH CAMPER OPTION, please!!! And what about a modified reissue; MPC '85 or so Chevy pickup WITH 8-foot fleetside bed. I can dream. BIG! ?

I forgot the MPC 1971 Mercury Montego; stock and Nascar. Please!!!!

Wait, wait!! Didn't they'd recently done a 1/18 diecast "Blues-Mobile" 1974 Dodge Monaco police? So...... Also voting for a modified reissue of their 1969 Oldsmoblle 442 into a 1968. What about a reissue of the MPC 1/20 "Altered T" AA/FA dragster?

My nominations: MPC '81 Chevette, MPC '87? Cavalier, MPC Mako-Shark II, MPC Cosma-Ray Corvette, MPC Vette-Van, AMT AMC Matador (stock interior and AMT/X custom option), ERTL International F-2575 and F-2674 and 4270 trucks, ERTL John-Deere backhoe, MPC '68-'69 Impala, MPC Pro-Stock Pintos (with stock building option), MPC Pro-Stock Mustang II, MPC '74 Charger. That's it for now; it is 1:45am here....

Isn't there another version that will have a "plain" hood, without the scoops, available one day?

Any more news about the wrecker and the '70 Comet?

Any news lately about the whereabouts of those '46-'48 Chevrolets kits by Galaxie Ltd.?
