  1. Cool... I really need to work out a plan to consolidate my collection...I have my model car storage spread across 5 locations in 3 states. Rob
  2. I'd like to see AMT (or Revell) retool and do a production '10 Camaro SS...quite a number of differences between the concept and the real thing. Rob
  3. Sharp build...one of my preordered ones came today...happy happy!
  4. No idea...maybe some kind of old time slang. From the context of the usage, I'm thinking it's a pontificator, i.e. someone that expresses an opinion on the hobby.
  5. Apparently the reruns start again this weekend according to the site.. I thought I saw that the KR revival was cancelled after 1 season.
  6. I'd love to see a '38 Standard, '38 De Luxe, or '39 Standard. Love those front ends. I wonder what's going to be new in the upcoming reissue of the '36 3 window coupe.. Monogram used to have '34 3 window coupe (and maybe a roadster?)....vaguely remember it being reissued a couple times in the last 20 years..black on the box art? Not the ZZ top kit.
  7. Hmmm....pronounced as 'Gary' (like the actor Anthony Geary) or 'Gear-y' ? I haven't had people mispronounce my name, but a pet peeve is getting called 'Bob'.... I'm Rob or Robert, thank you, but NEVER Bob.
  8. Looking at the Discovery website, looks like it's in reruns now...summertime.
  9. I bought one several years ago from the notorious AF/X N Scale Resin. Don't know if anyone is doing one these days.
  10. It's easier to make the Revell Daytona look nice..much nicer kit, IMHO. Rob
  11. Yeah, the coverage isn't that great, but better than nothing. I just tiVo it and watch on the weekends, fast forwarding thru the commercials. I actually liked and followed NASCAR growing up from around 1980 to 1990, I lost interest and stopped following when the cars no longer resembled their production namesakes..
  12. I've watched Speed TV quite a bit this year, for the F1, 24hr of Le Mans, and other road-course racing series. I avoid the NASCAR content.
  13. I think my online vendors got them in stock today...my CC got dinged for 2 of em...woo hoo!
  14. Can't wait until the next race..it's been a pretty interesting season so far.. Rob
  15. ...so we have a kit that came out originally over 15 years ago and just now people are making a big deal over a tiny detail that may be wrong? Amazing...
  16. Wierd...the ones I have are all molded in gray. Has this been reissued in red?
  17. Yeah, it's a release of a 40yr old Pyro kit. Pyros were slightly above Palmer, but were still pretty weak compared to the AMT, MPC, etc of the time.
  18. Got 3 old kits in the mail today from eBay. AMT '67 Falcon, '67 Cougar, '66 Riviera. The Riviera is in a '66 Polara conv. box. The Falcon and Cougar have the original boxes and instructions, all restorable. All have the original trim intact, and the chrome. The Falcon needs a bit of work (someone removed the B-pillars--thinking I can cut some from a '69 Nova body maybe) and one hubcap is missing. Anyone have a source for '67 Falcon hubcaps? The Modelhaus has '66 ones, but I don't have my '66 kit handy to compare and see if they are the same or not.
  19. Cool...LOVE the wheels..going to have to hunt down a set of those
  20. Cool...thanks. Looking at the catalog, I see you have mastered a '32 sedan delivery also. Don't recall seeing pics of one of those unbuilt or built up.
  21. Ya, such it is. I'd love a new kit of a '69/70 Marauder or the '03-04 Marauder, but there is apparently a lot more demand for a custom '49 Mercury, hence the all new Revell kit a couple years ago. Go figure.
  22. That looks pretty cool... I'll have to get a current catalog from R&M...I think the one I have is from 2002.
  23. Sharp build of a nice kit. Speaking of Fujimi Ferrari GTOs, I've noticed they have a blue and yellow box art version also now. Anyone familiar with it and if it differs from the red box art version?
  24. The Tamiya 350Z is a nice kit.... I picked up their new 370Z kit recently, looks to be very nice also.
