  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gundam
  2. Snowing and about 30
  3. Yeah, it's too bad..never kitted...diecast in various scales, but none in 1/24th or 1/25th as far as I know. I'd love to see some of the later Grand Cherokees kitted also..having owned two in 1:1 (an '00 and a '14).
  4. I never had a dog when I had an apartment or a condo, but I can see how that would be problematic. Having a house w/ a big fenced/walled yard is the only way I'll have pets.
  5. That sucks...I work from home, so I'm home all day so my dogs are pretty mellow and get outside in the back yard often when the weather permits. But sometimes I am out of the house all day...seems like they mostly sleep though.
  6. Yes, Salma and the black '67-68 Cougar were the best parts IMO..
  7. Those look sharp... I have the Revell diecast '67s in a light silver blue and a dark blue one w/ a Carroll Shelby figure.
  8. Subscribe to their YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP7kWCo9fTn8BRaL_t0h98A
  9. Takara Tomy is doing an Ironhide (3 variations) not sure of the scale though.. https://hlj.com/transformers-studio-series-ss-15-ironhide-tkt61583
  10. Could be. The part in my Lincolns looks like a car battery but larger, w two rows of buttons w a slot between. Edit: yes, I see it in the Feb 10 post of the Lincoln instructions. Like an ice bucket I guess.
  11. Yes, given that they have re-issued the '55, '60, and '84 GM pickups in recent years, one of the Silverados is definitely due a retro deluxe reissue...the '72 would be nice to see again also.
  12. LTD IIs were 302s, 351s and 400s I believe. Midsizers didn't get 460s after 75 or 76...
  13. I need to dig out my '61 & '62 Continentals and check, but I remember the '61s having some sort of square switch box with 4-6 switches or buttons on the top side w/ a slot in between. Both of my '61 convertibles (acquired as buildups) have it glued in the center of the back seat, no idea what it is.
  14. I've seen old photos of cars w/ water bags, apparently it was a traveling through the desert thing from the past. http://10engines.blogspot.com/2009/05/radiator-water-bag.html
  15. I access my Instagram account from my computer by logging into my account. Nothing unusual needed. Oh, ok..I see what you are saying. I upload photos from my phone, haven't tried from my computer..
  16. That's neat...the Black Bison tuner version from Wald would be neat to do.. https://jalopnik.com/the-black-bison-suzuki-jimny-wants-to-eat-your-soul-1832624769
  17. Tower Hobbies has it listed for pre-order for late March, but who knows...Round 2 release dates tend to change.
  18. I bet this Pro Street Colt I saw Saturday was a wild drive. I should have taken a closer photo.
  19. Fun movie...the 'Eagle 5' spaceship was based on was the same style Winnebago my folks had in the 80s...Chieftain 33ft.
  20. It's 17F this morning here in the Cleveland area with a little fresh snow. it was 60F Thursday evening...February has been very up and down, with a couple days of below zero highs the week before with the polar vortex. I don't think I'd want to live anywhere colder. When I lived in Colorado, there were nights occasionally below zero.
  21. In the US, the AMT tire packs retail for about 1/2 the price of a typical kit, this wheel set is listed at the same price ($13.99 on Tower Hobbies). https://www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0097p?CATEGORY=&MANUFACTURER=AMT&FVSEARCH=PARTS+PACK
  22. That would be most uncool.
  23. The Revell '56 Chevy 2dr sedan 'Bad Dream' was my nemesis as an 8 year old. It was my first glue kit attempt. The Revell '59 Skyliner was a challenge also when I was a few years older...but I got the top mechanism working.
  24. I'm not sure if Dragon is still around..
  25. I have a '67 AMT annual boxed version of the Barracuda...but I don't know if the tooling originated w/ AMT or MPC, since MPC had '68 and '69 annuals.
