  1. Many stalled projects....longest stalled and biggest is my 1990 Roush Racing IMSA Cougar. I spent lots of time and money, most chassis and engine built but not painted. After 3 false starts on a body back about mid 1990's it all went into a box never to see light again.....BTW it's in 1/12 scale....
  2. Monogram offered a Daytona coupe body and tire/wheel KIT in 1/32 scale to be used with their slot car chassis. A very nice kit that I had hoped would be made into a static kit someday.
  3. Not a downer....but you may be right. We have to hope we are a small enough group the site can handle it......as much as I love Modelhaus stuff...it ain't Amazon level of hits.
  4. Dis-closer: I have not talked directly to any of my Revell contacts but hear some are working with Revell's new owners in some capacity.
  5. Let's say the two would be related for sure. My brother in law was AMII art director and helped with kit design before he unexpectedly passed away while working for AMII. What could have been.......
  6. My So Cal buddy was there.....has a few projects working for this year.....(showrods)
  7. If Accurate Miniatures had made it longer than it did......we would have gotten a full range of Cobras.....they had done the design work for a number of high end die cast so info was in house.
  8. That's my fear....It's not on the spreadsheet and I am not sure New Revell will issue a 'humorous' WWII vehicle.....or any TD kits.....like Baja....(see the flak RoG got for their WWII German flying saucer kit)
  9. They used to have a saying 'nothing is for sure but death and taxes'.....some are skating on the tax thing so we are down to ONE sure thing. Those folks involved in the new Revell announcement are pretty trust worthy.....but you are correct....nothing is 100% for sure until it is in front of YOU.....but I am hopeful.
  10. Cool...I like!
  11. It's fishing.....if someone bites...good...if not..no cost to seller. You see it on ebay a lot when they offer no fee selling days.
  12. NICE all around!!!
  13. All those on the page linked were sellers OTHER than WalMart.....folks selling through WM site. Some of our WM's have kits...none near me.....about 2 hours away do.....
  14. Didn't know we had other OGR folks here....great work!
  15. My Hobby Lobby still has a Foose truck...at 40% off it's a lot less than folks have paid of late.
  16. Not a chevy guy....anything new is Great news. Difference between 68 and 69??? I have some 69 chevy short track cars I want to build.
  17. All depends on the agreement of the license. I held a large number of licenses for NASCAR properties and all allowed for 'stock on hand' to be sold when the license expired. Anyone that signs otherwise is not to bright.....but yes....I mistakenly applied my past licenses to Revell and none of us here know those details.
  18. Well done...saw many run back in the day.
  19. The court erased a good chunk of debt from what I saw in docs posted here....that may leave some folks unhappy. If the Foose kits were produced when they had the license then can sell 'inventory on hand' reckon we'll see.
  20. Nice work....I have this one on my bench right now!!! I like the super clean work and stance.
  21. Let's hope.....many could care less about the TD stuff....but I still enjoy....thx
  22. No inside story here....'I fear' is what they call an opinion. I think the new Revell is aiming for more Tamiya like line up and the Tom Daniel stuff is looked at as sully. Add to it they do not have the TD license right now. IMHO ONLY sorry you're tired.
  23. I fear stuff like that will never be seen again......for a number of reasons. Sad to me....
