  1. My posts are to allow the posting of creative discussion, Luke's posts stifle the discussion.
  2. Your first post when you entered the discussion was fine, other than the bit about the spoon. It's your second post when you decided to be the thread police that was unnecessary.
  3. Last time I checked you didn't start this topic, and the OP and others were enjoying a conversation. Thanks for telling them they aren't enjoying the forum properly though.
  4. Yes, I mentioned that it was Round2 (AMT) and not Revell. That doesn't mean Revell can't do the same smart thing. Round2 saw the viable business case. Remember, there are other people in this world that don't think the same as you. I'm sure there are plenty that like the idea of having both, and plenty that don't want to paint clear parts. Easy for you, not so easy for others.
  5. I'm not sure if Revell did it, but AMT has. They could follow suit. Without digging through everything I know the AMT '76 Gremlin has both. I think the Econoline or Chevy van does too.
  6. Considering how it's going to be more expensive anyways, they should include clear and smoked like others have had recently. Then the tops can be smoked with a clear windshield.
  7. I always thought the same about the Chevelles too.
  8. My oldest surviving build is the Impala, so I'll get one of those. Probably two, mine is missing a part.
  9. I would have to agree with this except for the '63 Olds Starfire.
  10. I finally remembered which kit I built that has spinners.
  11. Probably because of open borders and freedom of movement.
  12. The water table is too high to have a basement here.
  13. I would get one if it was Short Line.
  14. I think I figured it out. It's like Minority Report. Locked to prevent future crimes.
  15. A friend had a Pontiac Astre, we called it the ash tray.
  16. I never understood why people had problems with kit instructions... until I tried to build a semi.
  17. That's why I said I see it as sort of investing, I know I'm not an investor in the strictest sense of the word. I am willing to buy some of the stuff they pump out, if it's something I want. They just need to keep pumping away until they get to the stuff I like. Most of the stuff seen as nostalgia here is too old to my liking, my nostalgia is the newer crappy kits.
  18. If it's something I want, I buy it. Of course I would like it cheaper, but price is secondary. I see it as sort of an investment. They have things I want to see reissued so I help keep them in business. Besides, aren't they one of the few that still put names on the tires?
  19. The incorrect letters stick out like a sore thumb.
  20. That's something I look for. I don't think I have any that are exact, but I hope to do some combining and scratching to make a few. I have a Cadillac to try and make my old '83 Buick Electra. The doors, roof and quarter panels are the same.
