  1. Well done!!!
  2. I seem to recall Pegasus stuff is tooled and run in China....same place Moebius is.....how they got together in a way. The retail store is a must see......go every visit to SoCaj..
  3. Nice work!
  4. How is Salvinos designing, tooling and molding in SoCal, one of the hardest places to do business, and looks like they are making it work......
  5. look at completed ebay listing for what the items SOLD for........it will giveyou an idea.
  6. X2......I checked with my contact inside......still here and kicking......as long as we keep buying....so NO...not closed.
  7. I have not seen it at mine yet.....but welcome if they do.
  8. Moebius is now owned by Pegasus......but lots of projects underway last time I met with them. I did a good amount of work for them in the past.....things have slowed...yes....but not closed up.
  9. Nice work!
  10. Stopped at my HL today..........plastic area reset.....plastic had the same space as before. Mine did have Atlantis kits on the shelf...but none I wanted. Did pick up 68 Chevelle,......new to me.
  11. Coming out pretty well considering how difficult the decals are.
  12. The ugly stick worked overtime on this one......BTW why in the world do they call the Xfinity series Toyota called a Supra??? The race car is twice the size of the street...not even close. The kit will be nice....it's Tamiya....but wish they had spent the investment on something else.
  13. My HL is 1.75 hour drive.....love to have one closer....
  14. Thanks for that......wondered if they were still going to do it after bankruptcy.....
  15. I order chrome spray from 'Bombing Science' online. Owner says it's Molotow in a can. I love it an am on my 2nd 600 ml can....check it out.
  16. I like those big Mopars....you did well....engine bay is nice and neat.
  17. I mask window stainless and use Molotow spray can....works well for me.
  18. IMHO we have hit the high water mark for 1960's era kits and are on the downside. Think about the age factor.....early 1960's was right at 60 years ago!!!! Teens of the era are passing and collections are coming on market.....a market that is slim at best. My best buddy got 4 models off ebay in the last two weeks that 20 years ago each would have sold for more than he paid for all of them. Good unbuilt kits. It happened 20 years ago with Lionel trains....huge collections came up for sale as owners passed.....market demand was low....prices fell like a rock. The model values, for the most part, have not hit bottom yet. I have 5000+ kits in the stash......lots of guys do....when these all come to a small market......ugh
  19. Nice work on a kit I'd call a challenging build.........I know I built 3 for AM back in the day.
  20. Very cool!!! I have a Tilt version of that car....wondered what to do with it.
  21. You have a better hand and eye than us old folk ....they look great.
  22. I like Duplicolor primer sealer #1699 under Duplicolor.
  23. I don't recall S&H calling the Torino 'tomato' in the movie.......think it was in the TV show they did...
  24. Nice tomato!!!!
