  1. @Justin Portermentioned this in another topic, and @SteveGwas prophetic, urging patience a few months ago. ? AMT-1334 1/25 1964 Mercury Comet Craftsman Plus Series
  2. AMT 1312, Studebaker Avanti, with headlight options (square or round) to build it as either a '63 or '64:
  3. @niteowl7710knows plenty. We'll all find out soon enough what the all-new kit is.
  4. @SteveG seems to be the go-to social media person for Rond2's automotive news, so I'm sure once he's able to make it public, he will. @pack rat ain't spilling the beans early, either. ??
  5. https://madmodeling.com/Item/77muscoupe
  6. Here's that blurb about the kit's features, mentioning the decals, from the revell.de 'site: Very demanding model for experienced model builders Multi-piece V8 engine Movable bonnet Movable hood Multi-part body Various chrome parts, including rims, exhaust pipes and carburetors Decal for three versions known from feature films
  7. I'm not going to derail this topic any further. I wouldn't plan on seeing anything other than clear parts in this kit, which I suspect will be just fine with the majority of people who buy and build it.
  8. Two different companies, Revell and Round2, but I fail to see any viable business case for Revell to shoot the clear parts twice, in two different tints, for this kit. Tamiya smoke gets the job done for the seventeen people worldwide who want tinted sunroof panels.
  9. Which recent kits have included both clear and smoke-tint clear parts?
  10. The 1/16 Revell '83(?) Firedbird SE kit might be the closest thing in scale. Hard to find a clear, large image of the wheels, but they do have separate 'bowling ball' center caps:
  11. The blue Mustang IMSA was reissued once, as part of the SSP, and looking at eBay prices, they are equal to or less than what a new reissue would cost. Not sure there is a huge market for these kits, to be honest, even of Atlantis acquired them from Revell.
  12. FEATURE PACKED: Tommy Ivo’s Rear-Engine Dragster is an iconic kit from the Kats at AMT! Fully paintable, with an expanded and improved sheet of water-slide decals with authentic markings. Features include a supercharged 426 HEMI® engine, air foils, Deist drag chutes, super-slim dragster wheels and big slicks with pad-printed lettering. The air-cheating body shell has been recreated from all new tooling and assembles more easily than before! Wrapped up nicely in eye-popping vintage AMT packaging! Includes a BONUS Original Art™ 9”x 6” mini print as a part of AMT’s Original Art Series! QUICK SPECS: 1/25 Scale, 95 Parts, 10 Inches long once assembled. Parts molded in white with black vinyl tires. Some parts are chrome plated.
  13. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Krtw0T0kkWvebLzYA4AyFhYZ8KEm9i0q/view I don't see the '56 Buick listed nor shown, so maybe that release was delayed.
  14. It's not having, but rather publicly sharing those opinions publicly which may be against the forum rules. The rules are very clear here, and Xingu/Mike has always leaned toward allowing questionable discussions proceed, so it's pretty hard to make a case for being a victim here.
  15. There is no premise. This is not Logic, Argumentaion and Debate 103 at University. You are capable of reading and understanding the rules, then deciding if you wish to participate while staying within those limits. Nobody is entitled to free speech on a private forum. Your civil rights aren't being violated, and you aren't being censored by evil tyrants. Yes, it probably IS you. Sometimes we have to put on our big boy pants and self reflect, understanding that we can be wrong at times, and that our own personal selfish wants, desires, and preferences do not align with the forum membership as a whole. I get plenty frustrated at times by things I read here, but then I realize I'm not special and move on with my life. You learn to ignore and avoid things which frustrate, irritate, and annoy you as a balanced adult, even though that usually comes at some cost. Such is life.
  16. Perhaps it's time to consider moving the 1:1 automotive topics/discussion from General Discussion altogether, and creating a sub-section (along with the 1:1 reference pictures) for it.
