77 Trans Am is a GREAT seller to Moms, Grandmas and folks that just need to buy a gift model but know nothing but that 'Smokey' movie. Big chain store buyers even ask for them. So I can't fault R2 for doing what's asked for. BUT....anything else from the era (like the coming Pinto) is much more welcome among the lunatic fringe that hangs here!!!

REALLY COOL!!!!! You say it started as a kit??? Garage kit?? Reminds me of some in 'Mortal Engines'!

They CAN transfer to new owners. Depends on how they are written. I did NASCAR licensing for 10 years.....out of a 100 license deals there was 100 different contracts.....each with it's own rules. As I said in a previous post....things are in a flux right now. MOST of it not in public view. I do not know but HOPE it sorts out in a positive way that keeps automotive kits flowing. I helped out on a number of auto kits with the old Moebius.....I hope those still come about.

It's all in flux......change...the only constant.

The efficiency of logistics is the answer every time I ask why a package goes on a wondering trip.. I accept that for some of them.....but the ILL, WV then NC and back to WV is insane........

I fully understand.........but she just acts and does a decent job....you know....the old time attitude where you were and actor, knew you were living the good life and were thankful for it???? Seems so long ago.

'League of their own' was the best thing she, and many in the film, ever did. RIP

What is so strange is I get a First class package from Riverside CA in 36 hours....yet it takes 4 days to get a birthday card to my grand daughter 100 miles away....FIGURE!!!!

Cool spin!!! I need to get one of those.

IIRC Ed said it was retooled....but correct....no pics!

Nice work!!

Hmmmm.......We went to a old hobby shop a week ago. This was, back during the NASCAR explosion, one of the biggest shops in the country. They now are buying back collections as folks age and/or downsize. The 'new in box' 1/24 die cat are $5 and slow moving, 1/64 are $1 each and the 1/18 are $8 to 10 each. So good luck to him.....he'll have die cast in his store for years I bet. The movie stuff will be a little easier.

Nice work! You really crank them out!

My wife would hate you!!! She was born in Paris France and her family had a 2CV and a 1950 Mercury!!! Talk about opposite ends of the auto spectrum! She has wanted a 2CV since she got her license. She is a FANTASTIC looking 2CV BTW Seems I got really lucky in my transport. It was on time, price as stated and no damage.

VERY well done......maybe the best that kit has looked.

VERY toy like IMHO.....

Bet Ford will let them know. GM licensing does think the own everything.....IMHO only!

Never had anything I wanted....even with a 50% off coupon. Wife goes now and then.....but their stock was always poor.

I like this series......but I liked them when they were $15!! $50 is a bit steep....even $42 I'll have to think hard. As stated these kits have poor chassis, fair interior with generic dash, no detail just a decal. No engine. I wanted a few but may not.

Super clean great work!

Thanks for that!! I just used it and scored some resin I was looking at.......now a great deal!

Never a favorite car but your craftsmanship is great!! I just bought the chrome body kit for $5 hope it comes out near as well as yours.

I have a Scalextric set I bought about 10 years ago when a hobby shop closed. I then added track and cars. The 1/32 cars are really nice. I PLAN on making a permanent set up in my hobby garage that folds out from the wall.

Looks like a Marty loaner......I love obscure!

NICE......never saw that car before!!!!
