I'm posting this from a six year old MacBook (also with the older, no longer supported OS) and running Google Chrome, without any issues. It's not a blanket problem with all Macs.

Open message. Select "Leave conversation" from the "Message" drop down menu (grey rectangular box at top right).

It looks like there's been a change in how the molds themselves are designed now at Revell. I haven't purchased many "newer" Revell kits, but the sprues appears a bit hexagonal, and the runners have some interesting terminations, too.

You want brackets surrounding only the img and /img, not the link you paste. Works as you mentioned if done that way:

Hopefully this link helps: http://www.clarkefire.com/Libraries/PDF/Manual_DDFP_MP-4_C13194.sflb.ashx

Should be out in late September/early October. Not so sure about the decals, though.

Please share with us this magical shipping service which costs $1.50 to send a 2 ounce package across the country, and includes the cost of the packaging, too. The postage cost alone for a USPS First Class package weighing 1-3 ounces costs $2.05 now. Only a fool would ship a product like this in a #10 envelope where it would pass through USPS's automated sorting machine and be crushed. Plus, the maximum thickness for a USPS envelope is 1/4", you can't even send something like this inside an envelope in the first place. It has to be sent as a package, not a letter.

What's odd is the Model Trucks section, where previously, using the attachment feature to upload an image didn't work, but now that seems to be the only area of the forum where the "Insert Other Media" then "Insert Image from URL" does work.

All were mentioned in this forum board at one time or another: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/102735-some-more-round2-surprizes/?page=1 Maybe there's not enough interest in those two for someone to start a new topic specifically discussing each, though, so you'd have to read the above topic to see them mentioned. I think you're thinking of the "Paddy Wagon" you mentioned above (which was initially offered by Round2 as a Club exclusive), and not the '23 Ford Model T Delivery Van?

Are you uploading a file or using one which is already hosted on the web someplace? Double check the file extension (.jpg, etc.), and make sure there are no spaces in the file name, too.

OK, that was my question/concern. Since most vehicles use a "balanced" type leaf spring, it won't be an issue for most, but since you mentioned having test fit them on a Mopar, I was curious. At least now we know they won't work for that application unless there is extra length designed into each leaf. I'm guessing they are cut to a specific length to fit the Jeep applications, which, IIRC, use some very short leaf springs.

Absolutely do NOT do that. Follow Mike's suggesion above, or I think Rob Burns in San Diego was making them, too. Check the Truck Resin & Aftermarket section for more info.

Are they adjustable as far as leaf-to-leaf position is concerned? Since Mopar rear springs have different front and rear segment lengths, you'd need to have the center spring bolt holes not already drilled (if this is a truly "universal" type leaf spring set, that may not even be an issue), but I don't see any images of the bare product itself, only the assembled version (mostly) hidden by the tires, axle assemblies, etc.

I bet you could see, or at least notice, it when viewed at the proper angle. I doubt most people would notice, but it's still nice to aim higher than lower. More concerning to me is the fact that five or seven parts are molded as one, instead of separately, like most companies have done in the past 30+ years. AMT stepped up with separate shock brackets on their '71 Charger R/T kits, so Moebius choosing to revert this far back is a bit disappointing. It sure doesn't make for a better looking model when the builder needs to scribe in separation lines or use paint(!) to delineate between the various parts which make up that entire sub-assembly. At least they didn't mold the exhaust system to these parts, too.

Not sure if you've already tried this already, but if you click the downward pointing arrow next to your screen name at the top right of the screen, then select "Notification Settings" you can see which notifications options have been selected.

And so it begins:

Looks like it'll be the same 'ol tanker trailer, this time with Shell decals:

Surprise:

No.
