Yeah, I thought I’d dig out some of my Iceman grills and see if they fit. Think I’ll get a Canuck 3D ‘89-91 grille with the quad rectangular headlights.
-
I don't even mind that they cast the rear roof w/ the body, because when was the last time you saw an '81-91 K Blazer or Jimmy with the top off?
-
Yeah, got one last week from Southern Motorsports Hobbies. Looks really nice...looking forward to the GMC Jimmy version later this year.

Where is Chad with R2 February news?

I buy some of everything.. I like all sorts of subjects. Not afraid of curbsides or different scales either. -
This year's AMBR winner...
Rob Hall replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Sharp car..love the wheels and subtle blue-gray color. -
I went and saw the new 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' documentary in IMAX. Was a great experience. What was not so great is this morning after having a coating of ice and then snow yesterday, I swept the snow off my Jeep, let the defroster run 20 min or so to de-ice the windshield, when I turned on the wipers to clean off the slush a big crack appeared across the windshield. It is 11 years old and had one small rock chip. Oh well. Time to cue the 'safelite repair, safelite replace' jingle...(once it warms up).

My understanding from talking to the Round 2 rep at a show last year is there are Pro Stock versions of the Demon and Duster coming. -
Different box, usually expanded decal sheet..

I buy plenty of 'foreign' kits. This forum isn't really representative of the modeling community as a whole, it skews towards a niche of older American kit builders. -

Harts Parts makes the base style 70 grille. I have seen pictures of '70 Duster 340s with the base (Valiant-style) grille and the grille like the AMT '71 340 kit also. -
Southern Motorsports Hobbies is where I got mine. I have one on preorder from Wes' Model Car Corner also.

Great times for the hobby...lots of new tools and reissues from the traditional kit makers and a vast amount of subjects available in the aftermarket.... -

Round 2 has a very specific nostalgia market niche they cater to. Their approach works for them. Different companies have different market niches and strategies. -

Isn't that pretty much the same as the AMT '71 Duster 340? -

The January video was posted to YouTube on Jan 6th. This is only the 4th, and the 1st and 2nd were on the weekend. It will probably be up this week. For Feb the only kit release I know of is the Mustang II reissue. -
What Did You See In Your Yard Today?
Rob Hall replied to Tim W. SoCal's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Some of the neighbors walking dogs occasionally leave their full poo bags on my tree lawn, either intentionally or unintentionally dropped there. The only dog poo I’ve stepped in, though, is my own dogs. At least their product is small. -
That the wheels can be rotated is an important clue.
-
Ok, so it's something from Season 5...which hasn't aired yet. Interesting.
-
I was thinking of Revell's S550 Mustangs..but those were super-simplified, sounds like the new one is going to be a step up. Same series the tractors and one or two of the VW vans were in, IIRC..
-
Hopefully they include mirrors.. Yeah, the front has always looked bad to me. Very toy-like.
-
Interesting that the have the '68 Corvette listed twice, once as 1/24th (incorrect). And they misspelled Satellite. The only release with optional wheels, etc IIRC was the F&F Dom's car..maybe that sans F&F branding?
-
Everything they listed there says ‘New’ as in they are new releases/reissues for this year (not new tools)
-
Hmmm...maybe some accessory that came with a Revell or Monogram kit long ago? Like other accessories that have found their way into newer kits..
-
Big tires probably and off-road suspension, like the old Monogram Blazer and Jimmy High Roller kits.
