  1. I love that there are guys like you who have such knowledge of vintage light bars!
  2. In the other thread about the kit it is mentioned that they didn’t have enough extra funding to add anything other than the front end parts right now.
  3. True, luckily they (presumably) have that too!
  4. Honestly they just need to release the Splash kit and throw in the 1995 grille plus a new decal sheet and I would be happy!
  5. I’m hoping they offer the stripes that GM used for a few years!
  6. Looks like Round 2 has smartly updated their S10 Xtreme kit to the 1999 model year with the revised front end!
  7. It is! They had a few different versions of that truck, the most recent being the monster truck versions. Also funny you say you’re not interested in the truck, that line of kits (pre-monster truck) was a holy grail kit find for me! 1/16 scale kits aren’t real common, even less so one of a classic Square Body!
  8. Yeah, there’s a reason that the US manufacturers started making touring and sport trim levels to try and bring some European influence to their cars, because people were starting to tire of the gaudy chrome and boat handling!
  9. It looks like he replicated the pink/silver paintjob offered on the 9th gen flaresides!
  10. Good close up of the Jimmy box art courtesy of @niteowl7710
  11. Thanks! I think I may need to update it since I think some new shades have come out since then!
  12. They will be close enough to the factory tire, you may have to do some trimming on the wheels for them to fit in the tires since they are not hollow like the kit’s.
  13. You could get the 275s on most 2WD trucks with the optional handling package. Fireball Modelworks sells a great set of BFG Radial T/A's in this size.
  14. Picked this up a few months ago, 2002 F150 XLT 4.6 4x4 with factory limited slip, just got new tires on it!
  15. I found a different pic with slightly better resolution and yeah this is what it appears to say. Makes sense then for the “big and little” text at the top!
  16. Haha thanks but it’s not my review, I just remembered seeing it before. The box says “1/24 diecast”, whereas the plastic kit is 1/25 scale.
  17. It looks like it will be a re-release of this guy.
  18. I was rewatching the OG The Fast and the Furious movie yesterday and realized that the neon underglow still looks awesome, especially when it matches the body color! However, most people think it looked dumb then and still does now. What’s a mod that you think is cool but may not be to most?
  19. The ‘89-‘91 composite grilles are my favorite, especially the GMC version! Funny thing is they technically continued to 1996 on the full size vans!
  20. I’m more 80s-00s myself, but agree with your order of criteria! As for your second point, my exception would be if they were in 1/16 or 1/12 scale (and not just repops of crappy old kits, looking at you Round 2 and the 1:16 ‘64 Mustang!)
  21. Agreed, plus it seems like most kits with the roof separate have poor body rigidity and warped roofs.
  22. Hood, windshield, bumpers, lights, drivetrain (minus rear driveshaft), some exhaust, most of the front interior parts. Sure not all, but they can make variations of the different parts with 3d modeling so they aren’t completely starting from scratch either.
