  1. Hope someone does a hard top body for the Bonnie!!
  2. Follow the link below to see photos of all the parts to the new Moebius Batmobile kit. Kit is molded in a silver gray plastic with nice engraving and no flash. Tires are black vinyl and all new tooling. Kit has a engine and interior details.....full suspension. Hope to start building today. Thanks! http://public.fotki.com/DaveVan51/moebius-batman-v-su/
  3. I really like the Pro-Weld.....the Plastruct really irritates my nose for some reason. thx
  4. I have never heard where or if the tooling is still around. Being owned by a toy company tool disposition is a little different.....they are in the habit of scraping old tooling faster than kit companies. It could be sitting at a tooling company of it it went over seas it might be part of that Subaru you saw today!
  5. Is Ambroid Pro-Weld still in production??? I am running low and can't find any. thx
  6. The BMW kit like the Rover was a full detail kit. I'd buy any of the others.....the 911, TR7/8 and 924 if the include the racing parts and stock parts. Decent little kits.
  7. My son just bought this candy apple red Mustang 4 cyl turbo about two months ago. He loves it......way too fast of a car for him....but he pays the bill so what do you do??? The sort time he's had it it's been perfect....but at the price they should be good cars!! That's his Civic si he traded for the mustang. I'll keep my 66 Mustang 2+2 289 4 spd thx
  8. I like, and own, the altered Magnum kit. It is much 'cooler' than the stock version and not some horrible thing that was done to a stock kit you could buy off the close out shelf for 99 cents. (I had it too) Sure....if the stock kit was reissued I'd buy 2-3 of them for sure.......same for the Magnum kit too though......
  9. I get all kinds of 1/1 car stuff there. A palm size LED flashlight that was free w/coupon and $5 other items is one great item.I buy my car work rags and work gloves. 2 ton engine host we bought in 2004 has been used a lot and always works. Model wise not a ton of stuff....but some of their small tools are OK.
  10. My G4 came from Squadron online. They had a sale and then if you filled out a survey another 20% off. The T came from Amazon.
  11. All four kits shown share a chassis and engine. The bodies are slightly different to make them Plymouth or Dodges.
  12. Watch and wait......I got my 1/24 Mercedes G4 ICM kit shipped for 40. And the T can be found under $40 shipped.
  13. How about the Tonka fire truck kit??? It was 1/24 IIRC
  14. I got my ICM G4 Mercedes today a day early......I will make a new post as soon as I have time.....but very cool kit!!
  15. I don't think Dupli-color are any more OR less toxic than other paints.....treat them all with care. I use dupli-color primers under everything......get some gray #1699......you'll love it.
  16. I like the ambulance if it was 1/24. I ordered the 1/24 Mercedes G4 staff car.....should be here Sat.......anyone have or built it yet???
  17. Does look like them......like you say.....HOW!?
  18. Much prefer them flashed over......a note here on the issue covers it for a good number of the builders. thx
  19. This just came in todays mail. I love TV and Movie cars so I was happy when I opened the box. The kit is more detailed than I thought. Includes a simple engine but that is buried inside the body not seen again so no biggy. Detail is crisp and there is lots of it. A big vehicle that will scale out about 12 feet wide!!! Very cool!!!! More as soon as I have time!
  20. I see a few cool looking vans......you'll have to help translate the rest!
  21. CYA for the company........PROOF they carded in case someone in power challenges the store.....not as much a math issue. In WV a license issued to anyone under 21 years old is a different color so no math involved.
  22. Pretty sure that is older tooling that Revell USA has issued a number of times. IIRC it was gold colored on the box last time.
  23. BINGO!!!
