Oh, and I will say that if you would like to build more than one kit, go right on ahead! I have so many to choose from, I may go for a pair.

Revell DE 1st quarter releases
Jordan White replied to The Junkman's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Ah okay, that makes sense then. -
Expanding on my love for the era, probably around 80% of my kits waiting to be built in the 1/24 and 1/25 scales are from this time period. I admire older vehicles, and like the late 60's muscle cars like the next guy, but there's just something about styling from the time that I love. The straight, yet slightly rounded styling, the crazy wheels that aren't massively tall, the boxy fenders, the wild graphics, the "Euro" styling trend of body-color bumpers, and the bright neon colors all come together in one mishmash of awesomeness!

I'm sure that will be super pricey, but dang that looks nice! I love the detail they put in along with all the features (opening doors, steering, suspension, etc.)! It's too bad Tamiya wasn't this detailed when they released their Mini Cooper.

Good to hear so far!

Round 2 December 2017 Product Spotlight
Jordan White replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Yeah I like a lot of the subjects they did and would love them in a larger scale, but the Lindberg kits just look a bit toylike from what I've seen on Google. -
I frequent the blog site Jalopnik quite often and have seen posts on a new car show they host called Radwood. The basic idea is a car show that showcases automobiles from the 80's and 90's as well as the clothing and memorable items from that era. Perhaps it's because I grew up in the 90's that I love the idea of this show so much and would love to have a CBP version of it. The basics: -Vehicle must be from the 80's/90's. Exceptions are vehicles built before/past this time period but are the same vehicle (e.g. 2001 Mustang and 1999 Mustang, or 1979 Mustang and 1980 Mustang) or vehicles built in the style of the time period (e.g. Cal-look VW, Boyd-style Hot Rod) -Any type of vehicle is welcome. -No limit to amount of customization, just limit to styling (if custom) that depicts the era. Build time would be from January 1st, 2018 through Dec 31st, 2018. Please post if you're interested and what you'll be building! I will update the first post with this information. Builder list: Jordan White - 1991 Ford Bronco Centurion iamsuperdan - 1990s Mercedes-Benz AMG 500SL 6.0 jaymcminn - Callaway Corvette Speedster dodgelover - PT Cruiser Pro Street Cpt Tuttle - Lotus Esprit TimJ - Porsche 911 Carrera Cabrio Jhedir6 - 1995 Honda Civic WickedRidez - 1995 Toyota Pickup Addition: You may certainly make a separate build thread elsewhere in the forum, please just add at least a post with any updates here as well so we can see them come together in one spot!

Round 2 December 2017 Product Spotlight
Jordan White replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
There's at least 3 versions of the 1st gen that I can find with a Google search: 3n1 kit, Baja Racer, and Syclone. -
Since I for some reason can't reply in the poll thread, it's saying "this field is required" for the section that I didn't cast a vote in, though I noticed that there are other votes being counted.

Terrible Box Art
Jordan White replied to Junkman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That thing looks like it would be made of wood and sold at a flea market next to the yard art. -
Terrible Box Art
Jordan White replied to Junkman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Hmm, red car with silver parts in the blue packaging, and silver car with red parts in the red packaging. -
Terrible Box Art
Jordan White replied to Junkman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
With this one, it's like they pulled someone off the street that had used Photoshop a couple of times. "You know what's missing? A dog!" -
Revell DE 1st quarter releases
Jordan White replied to The Junkman's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I see they’re reissuing the 1/16 Vw Beetle, seems a bit soon for that! I also see that they’re bringing back out the 1997 F150 kit, hopefully it’s the regular cab version this time! -
Yup, Geo's were simply just rebadged vehicles from other companies. Prizm was a Toyota Corolla, Tracker was a Suzuki Sidekick, Storm was an Isuzu Impulse, and Metro was a Suzuki Swift.

I don't think I've seen this posted here yet. -
Next Meng Kit Announced - How About a Jeep?
Jordan White replied to niteowl7710's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
So on the pricier side, but if the kit is as good as the other two, then totally reasonable IMO. I'm just excited to see what all the parts look like and how well it goes together. -
Can we still block users?
Jordan White replied to The Creative Explorer's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Go to the top right corner of the screen where your profile picture/name are and click the dropdown arrow next to it. Under that, there should be an option for "ignored users". Go there, and enter the name you would like ignored. -
Revell's "new" Jeep & Snowmachine kit
Jordan White replied to stavanzer's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I know the Pink Poison version did not have a chrome tree in it. -
ford bronco by revell 1966 to 77
Jordan White replied to bubbaman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yup there was. I'm sure back then there weren't very many limitations on the color combos! http://www.lov2xlr8.no/brochures/ford/76bro/bilder/3.jpg -
Sharpies for detailing?
Jordan White replied to blusy's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I've come to only use Sharpies to color in light lenses, because with a few applications you can get a good depth, and the fine point is much easier than a brush and jar paint. I find that 3 layers (let dry between each layer) is generally sufficient. I also find that for the amber lights, to use one layer of yellow first followed by two layers of orange. -
JiminOhio?
Jordan White replied to Evil Appetite's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
No, this was a site where he sold mainly out of production kits. Basically Model Roundup, but with reasonable prices.
