Coming late this year from Atlantis !
That is a surprise.......as stated Revell had that tooling (Cop Out) recently. Both these kits are the same other than bodies and decals. Wonder if they will get the OK for the Hot Wheels logos??

Some paint on chassis. Sprint car wing. Headers are just sitting, will be much different. Thanks for looking

May be a stupid question, but why is the site going down?
The powers that be want everyone to move to a Facebook version of the site. I do not do Facejunk so a huge loss. Been there from the start. SAD

I see R2 is reissue the Chrysler Kit car Dodge Dart kit in a green paint scheme......................

I am not exactly known as a drag race model builder. But I want to build a Monogram BADMAN and it needed someone to race. I wanted something different and I may have chosen the wrong kit to modify. But here it is. Monogram 53 Chevy kit with a lot of parts box stuff.....some of which I have no idea where it came from. Cut the hood hole wrong so she runs w/o it!! Tamiya paint, Gofers and my own decals. Tinted the window orange. Thanks for looking.

Atlantis kits have been in Joann's for about a year now. Wife goes there often so I check kits in store. 40-50% of is the norm if you have coupon. Also they offer free shipping at times on online orders.

Wonder why they are going back to a COE design??

which HL stores carry the AMT 1960 F-100, the Richmond IN store says it is not listed as being stocked.....
No inside info here just lots of retail exsperence. R2/AMT sold out the first run of the 60 Ford before they landed. The 2nd run is also about sold out. As long as the kit is this hot there is no need to sell to any mass merchandiser like HL. Once sales cool some R2 may offer the kit at the discount MM need. Until then no MM sales. Just IMHO ONLY!

Ordered the Swamp Rat and Mongoose RE today......also Cave Bear and Sabre!!! Thx Atlantis

Penngwen would still be in the kit biz but after my 3rd caster quit I couldn't find another. Good luck hope you can.

The Monogram Petty version has them. Keith Marks had them at one time check with him.

Plastic kits will soon be much like Lionel Trains of the 1990's. Pre War Lionel was gold in the 60'-80's. Then a lot of collectors started passing away and he market became flooded with nice Lionel. Prices drop like a rock. In the 70's you might get $2000 for mint empty Lionel boxes. Suddenly they were just empty boxed. I have a huge collection, when time comes it will go out as a collection.
