  1. Looks like the MH has these listed now on their site. http://www.modelhaus.com/index.php?part=1&new=1
  2. The '57 Olds 88 is a handsome car..would be nice in 1:25 th..
  3. Nice clean build. Like the color choice. Are those the kit whitewalls?
  4. Cool...I have a Monkeemobile in my stash, have thought about using the AMT '65 GTO custom roof (which resembles a '66-67 roof) on it...
  5. Interesting...so they built the unibody and separate bed trucks concurrently...didn't know that. I've seen pics of 4x4 F-series of the '61-63 era w/ the '60 style bed, but hadn't seen 2wd ones before. Wasn't the AMT '63 annual the unibody F-series? I know the '61 is...
  6. Since Revell has '50s,'60s and,70s muscle well covered w/ their new releases, I'd like to see the 2nd half 2013 offer up some modern muscle--a '13 Mustang Boss 302, Shelby GT500, and Camaro ZL1 would be great variations of existing kits that I'd like to see...and the '14 Corvette C7 for a new tool. Given how long it took them to get the '10 versions out, I'm not optimistic, though.
  7. Sharp build..love the color.
  8. Rat Rod has come to imply that a build is just a bunch of rusty junk parts slammed together...the builder of this rod views their product as more engineered, more thought out..
  9. A hardtop and parts to do a race car would be a great followup 2nd version of this kit...I'd like to do something like this: or this
  10. Those mod tops are wild..never seen one in person. My MPC '70 Cuda was builtup in orange w/ a well done black vinyl top when I got it.
  11. Sharp...like the color combo..
  12. Bummer...I've been a customer off and on for several years. Always had good customer service from them.
  13. True... I have no clue what goes on w/ RC, I don't pay attention to that world. Likewise for armor or aircraft modeling.
  14. Interesting..so Revell didn't have to pay to show at the NNL? Agreed on the internet...I've been buying models and stuff online for 15 years....hard to beat the ease of ordering something w/ a few clicks.
  15. The MPC early '80s Econoline kits had the stock square light grille, IIRC. Never seen one offered in resin, though.
  16. The MPC '78 Dodge Little Red Express Truck kit had a tool box (w/ tools cast into the inside bottom) and a 2-piece floor jack. Not sure if the reissues have those parts. I have a builtup AMT '61 Lincoln convertible that has a part that looks like an extra---a rectangular box w/ like six knobs on it. Someone long ago glued it in the middle of the back seat. Don't know what the part is or if it even came w/ the Lincoln.
  17. This is apparently the 1:1 Overhaulin Coronet. Looks like it has a base Coronet grille instead of the R/T grille the Revell kit has.
  18. No idea about the M&H small slicks set, but Modelroundup has a large (tall, wide) set pictured, listed for November..had not heard about those. No idea about the other issues...though--someone on other forums suggested the Mystery Machine might be the one from the live-action movie a few years ago..never saw that, don't know what kind of van it was. The BHC Nova I assume is just a rebox of the hoary '72 SS w/ separate fenders...the movie car was a battered base model, IIRC.
  19. Interesting wheels on that white one. I've always liked the taillights and nose on the '85-86. Too bad my 1:1 '86 LX notchback had the weak 2.3 instead of the 5.0. Alas, it got totalled in '94, replaced by a Bronco.
  20. Sharp build..that orange just pops!
  21. In any Internet community like this, there are always a number of luddites...best to just ignore them.
  22.

  23. Interesting... I have a resin one I need to build some day.
  24. That Colorado Mustang is neat...looks early, like an '85 or so. I remember back in the late '90s-early '00s some silver 4th gen Camaros in use in Colorado. Don't think I ever saw an AZ DPS Mustang, but I was only out here for a few visits from '83-97.
