Me plez!!

I was in the hobby shop biz from 1980's through 2001. Not easy back then...now harder...add aging owners, rising costs....just the way it is. Our hobby will be 85% online in a short time.

Ronnie has been around for many years. Always square deal for me....your mileage may vary....

Are those hub caps used on the 1973 Mustang in the real 'Gone in 60 seconds'??? In the scene before the jump you get a close up of a locked up wheel......looks like this one.

Dunbar had Depot Hack, Fruit wagon, 1/32 Chevy monster truck, Cosmic Charger,2013 Camaro, Jaw Breaker Revell 1/29 X-Wing. A few old police cars and a stack 5 foot tall of civil war cannons!!!! I bought the last two fruit wagons and a few others. May check one more store Wed.

I agree Tom.....I have worked in small ways with both Tom and John and overall think they have done a GREAT job with what they have. As for this kit being the flagship of a new line....not so much. Maybe a reissue of the Barris Paddy Wagon....90% of the tooling is in other kits......can't be that much to restore. THAT would be a flagship kit for a new line. I fully understand the challenges of this hobby as a business. A retire Sr Analyst for a top 5 worldwide bank...I tend to analyze EVERYTHING. And working in this hobby for 35+ years now....I see both sides. Let's hope this is just a starter kit and big things are coming.

About as good as that kit gets. Nice

FYI ....Revell has the US license for Star Wars and has for many years.

Very cool!!! We owned a 1/1 US version....which as noted is a very different car than the model is.We put about 80K on it and gave it to our daughter who still loves it. It is one of the most unusual cars made....Fantastic room inside.

Nothing at my store....one each 53 and 63 Vettes....civil war cannon and tuna boat Lindberg planes

Got a recent 32 Vicky kit for $10.19 and a Revell Kylo Ren shuttle for $6, msrp $32!! Hobby Lobby had a lot of $10 kits today....37 Chevy, Surf Woody etc

Kinda cool.....wish they had picked a more authentic style. Also how about 1/25 scale too...

Nice work.....I do some HO scale stuff....tough builds....

Overall I like what R2 is doing and has done. But you can still find thee pretty easy.....and it was not that great when it first came out. Give me a ZZR in classic box with new pad printed tires and I'll pay $35 without blinking.....

Thanks and congrats.......been in many outages....never easy.....even the easy ones!!!

Just a FYI as a retire system analyst. I am wait 1 - 2 minutes to open a post on phone, chromebook, lap top and desk top pc.....so no matter the platform there is some issue. Thanks...good luck.

I'm going to.......But they had added some Revell Star Wars models so maybe that's what mine got????? I did buy a 129 X-Wing for $30 that was MSRP of $90....so not a waste trip.

Nothing but old Lindberg planes and Civil War cannons at mine.....

Saw that the HL I was in today had some MENG kits....military but who knows.....Jeeps???

The Dodge Colt was a Mitsu.......I had a 1/1 version.....

I'm in on all of those 70's era cars

I have the 1/29 scale PCC trolley, which is still run i some places. It is large enough to pass for 1/25 easy. These are out of production right now but still can be found. I got mine when the manufacture dumped them for $120....well worth it at that price. These are made by Aristo Craft. Bachmann makes a 1/29 scale Peter Witt trolley which is 1950's to present. It can be found under $200. A 1/25 or so trolley is a BIG model so all will be well over $100 no matter what.

Craftsmanship....

Thanks!!! Stock car racer you say??? Penngwen decals with custom mix paint

Great finish overall.......
