  1. I also remember in the late 70s-early 80s a 1/32nd '65 GTO, '65 Mustang 2+2, '65 Barracuda, '69 Charger, '70 Trans Am and others.. have some of the Monogram Snap-Tites from childhood. Some have been reissued many, many times like the '70 Mustang and '69 Camaro.
  2. I recall Revell of Germany doing something on their website maybe five years ago. Pictures of lots of potential kit subjects and people could vote on them. Don’t recall Revell doing something like that in the US.
  3. The Buick Road Wheels didn’t have trim rings, I think.
  4. My family farm phone number is still the same after 50+ years, but the area code changed maybe 25 years ago. I’ve had the same cell number for close to 20 years now, even though I’ve lived in 3 states over that time.
  5. That's nothing new, though...there were cartoons peddling product 35-40 years ago when I was a kid...I remember GI Joe, Transformers, etc.
  6. There are still 5 or 6 issues left on my current subscription, looking forward to getting them.
  7. Which is a pretty old idea..been going on for decades.
  8. Nothing available in resin for this that I know of, unfortunately. These were good looking cars.
  9. The one that was in the Snapfast Slammers series of custom snap kits with the Fury, Black Force and Concorde. It was a custom early 60s Rambler American convertible w/ top up. Ramblur. Pics of the box art at this link
  10. Haven't seen the movie in many years, but the red one did have a clear hood.
  11. Yeah, when I moved 2100 miles 3 years ago, the dogs went with me in my Jeep. My kit collection went boxed up in moving boxes packed by me into one Pod shipping container, arrived in fine shape.
  12. Congrats... moving is a pain...my last move was a little over 3 years ago and seemed to take forever. I still have boxes I haven't unpacked.
  13. They showed this pic on the FB..looks like some heavy metal objects.
  14. mainstream, casual modelers that might buy models at a non-hobby shop like a Walmart. I think Atlantis is targeting the older, nostalgia market w/ their older tooling.
  15. I have 10,865 posts..I'm sure there are others with more..I've been on here just over 14 years..
  16. Yeah, I've read they only did that because the Moebius founder was a big fan of Hudson...had a very specific personal interest. And the Hudson did have racing history, so multiple versions could be done.
  17. I concur..looks like a late 60s Chevy color. Stock w/ redlines and hubcaps or whitewalls and hubcaps would look good, IMO.
  18. Probably too obscure for Moebius. Danbury Mint did some nice 1/24th diecast ones 15-20 years ago.
  19. Greenlight has done a good job w/ their TV and movie subjects.. loads of Fast & the Furious vehicles, and I have the Big Lebowski Torino in 1/43rd diecast form from them, along w/ several 'Breaking Bad' vehicles... definitely would like to see them do more BB vehicles and some 'Better Call Saul' vehicles.
  20. He was great in The China Syndrome, Absence of Malice, The Firm...
  21. I was thinking of something like that, maybe try and use the large treaded tires from the AMT '67 Chevelle Pro Street kit.
  22. Kinda looks like this green?
  23. I wonder if they have anything that modern. I do remember reading they bought some Revell US-based tooling.... as far as GM and those various scales and the mention of Cadillac, I thought of the 50s era tooling like the '56 Cadillac Eldorado convertible (didn't have a windshield?) and '57 Eldorado Brougham...
  24. Hi, Hermann. great location (I visited Como on vacation in 2004, loved the area and nearby Lake Maggiore and Stresa). In Arizona in the 00s-10s, my sister had an '84 500SEL with over 200k miles..I drove it quite a bit when I lived in AZ. I love that generation of Mercedes.
