  1. Hello Dave, Great news!!!! I am looking forward to see if it will soon be available in the European market. Do you have any image of the decals to show us please????? Dave, I don't realy know if this is up to you, but please note that I know someone here in Greece that he would like to be a Moebius distributor. I have his contact so if Moeabius is interested just PM me. Greetings, Kostas.
  2. Hello from Athens, Is it the blue Peterbilt 353 western life of Revell of Germany??? If so, note that the kit is incorrect. You can built a beatifull 359 but not an acurate 353. Tim knows better than me about details and diferences between the 359 and 353. I just know that the 353 has not a tilting hood and of course the RoG KIT has totaly inacurate front feeders. There is a very good German forum, here is the link http://www.wettringer-modellbauforum.de/forum/ and a guy there is biulding this kit as a 359 http://www.wettringer-modellbauforum.de/forum/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=27856 Dispite the fact that this site is in German, pictures talking.... Hope that I was help you. Greetings, Kostas.
  3. Yes sir, On friday using the known address tim@timstrucks.com I used my job mail. Kostas.
  4. Thanks you guys for your support and your comments, Clayton good luck to you. Tim, my redo is not that big like the one you did (adding to the house). I am closer to what you did recently to the guest room, so it is a time chassing game for me, but I will give my best to complete it asap. Eagle, as you know we can see every day european trucks on the road, so I cannot be cold about them. I like scania, daf, mercedes, but my favorite truck is Peterbilt. I like too american trucks especialy those traditional look. In the past I have been once in Marceille for a few days and I am a big fan of Jean Michel Jarre. Kostas.
  5. Hello Tim, This is a very nice project and looks really good so far. I am wondering what are the fueltanks made from. These are not the kit fuel tanks, is that corect? I am always exited by looking the way your are giving shape to plastic sheets. Those cab extenders are very - very cool. Kostas. PS Have you read my mail?
  6. Hello Eagle, your trailer is superb!! I like both ideas for the tractor but I prefer the one with the 63'' flattop sleeper. Keep us posted. Kostas.
  7. Sweet... A very nice and clean built. Kostas.
  8. Looks good so far! Strange but nice color combo for the titan... Kostas.
  9. As said I started moving things from the west and south wall to the east wall. The east wall will remain, new shelves will be added to the north and west walls. so now I created a shelve traffic jam LOL The next weekend I will install the Element parts on the walls and then I will order the wooden shelves. Now there is no workbench at all so I have to finish the redo ASAP!!! See you soon.. Kostas
  10. Hello guys, The last months I spent most of my time between my job and my wife and our little girl. I had only one or two hous per week for my models. With our little girl growing and growing every day, many things changed in our lives and of course in our home. Many things had to be mooved from the apartment to the baseroom oops, my truck room. The last few weeks the truck room was realy looking like a mess amd because of this I din't want to do anything about building models. The reborn project was freezed and also a few other rebiuld projects that were on and off my workbench. So I decided to do a big redo by adding many, many shelves in order to have to store things and models. Last week I bought all the needed stuff for the shelves. I decided to go with the easy/smart/clean way by using ELEMENT SYSTEM parts. This mornig I started by moving thigns from one side to the other. Lets see some pictures: Here is the entrage to the truck room looking the north wall looking the east wall looking the south wall and last but not least the west wall with the workbench keyboards and hifi
  11. Maybe it is possible with 2 of these kits to build one 53' ft long.... That means a lot of cutting, glueing, sanding, smoking, etc.... Sounds like a surgery :lol: Kostas.
  12. Adam hi, I have seen both your wreckers back when the original Modeltruckmafia site was up. Love both these wreckers and all the other amazing trucks you have build in the past... I am very curius to see what you are going to do in the interior of the_coming_soon_Lonestar.... Greetings from Athens, Kostas.
  13. Tim hi, When I saw your last pictures from Denton and reallized the new DPF box, I though that it is very ugly. I don't like it at all. Your attempt to scale it down is very - very good. Do what you have to do in order to be casted in resin!!! The 389 is awsome! PS: What exactly is the order code of the plastruct diamond tread plastic sheet you are using? Can the same be used for the traditional battery/tool boxes? Kostas.
  14. Just love it!!! Nice colors and well done wrecker body! Looks like a real workhorse with those buds... Kostas.
  15. I 've bought four kits of this reisue, it is a very nice kit. I wish I could have the same results as yours. It looks realy nice! Kostas.
  16. Tim, Thanks you very much for your reply! Your pictures are very good showing the new kit next to others. I like very much the lonestar and I wish that Moebius will manufacture more new truck kits. Kostas.
  17. Tim, Thanks you for your reply. Yes you 're right, there is a small diference between 1/24 & 1/25 scales,but you know what, I bet that as me the most guys here, will put their Lonestar builts next to their 1/24 models on the same selves. So I think that it would be very interesting to see the Lonestar kit next to other 1/24 or 1/25 trucks. Please don't take me wrong about this. Kostas.
  18. Tim, As I am a PETERBILT fan because of you, and because you are the only one who have already build the new Lonestar kit, I would like to ask you a favor... If it is not forbiten, could you please upload here a few pictures of the Lonestar in comparison with some of your PETERBILT kits. I mean that I am curious about the length, the height of the new kit. I hope that what I am asking is not forbiten and is not a big deal fo you... Greetings, Kostas.
  19. Tim, That is a really nice result!!! I have to say once again that this kit is very very nice!!! Of course I must say also that this test shot model truck kit, builded by Tim's hands with that amaising Tim's touch, should/must be used for the box art.... PS1. Thanks you Dave, Thanks you Moebius, for this superb kit. PS2. Tim, when was your latest update of your site? All I can see is 6th of December. Is that corect or I have a problem with my link? BTW, Marry Xmass to all!!! Kostas.
  20. Dave, thanks you for shearing this with us. The kit is looking Great, I hope that more new Moebius truck kits will follow. Also I hope that there will be a distributor for Greece. Greetings from Athens, Kostas.
  21. Tim, What exactly are you waiting for????????????????????? Hey Rory, tell him to open that box. Camon girl... Kostas.
  22. WOW, what a great spend of time?? I would like too, to have in my modelroom the grill of a 389, maybe with the front light pods LOL Haven't see yet uploaded on your site pictures of brand new peterbilts at the factory.... Kostas.
