  1. Some nice work reworking the snap kit!!! Well done! When I was at the Wood's shop in 2019 the 500 winner was on display......................
  2. The earlier kits were nice 2 in 1 versions. For the big jump in price over the old kit with the $12.99 WM tag on it I have.....should be a 2 in 1 kit.
  3. Wife drags me there all the time.....I'll check it out. They have 50% off coupons all the time if your on their mailing list. A few Atlantis kits I'd get @ 50% off.
  4. New stuff keeps showing up.
  5. I have some Ollie's dump kits in my stash with $5.99 on them.....so yea.....they have gone up enough the risk vs profit is too high!!! I have two 1/8 Lindburg kits that have $15.00.....how things change!
  6. Someone in the club says they are 1/20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  7. If 1/25 zero international sales........1/20 they will sell more outside the USA.
  8. Toyota is building a 18 wheeler hydrogen powered truck using a KW cab/chassis. Toyota is betting it all on hydrogen and I think they are right.
  9. 1/35 vs 1/32 may have some roots in 'box scale' too. I have also seen older 1/32 scale kits now listed as 1/35 so it shows the two scales are so close this moving of scale is accepted by many.
  10. Also with them buying the RM tooling, which was 1/24, you get some continuity among eras.
  11. I may be the only one.....but I'd like to see them in 1/20 scale.........Almost all my open wheel models are 1/20. I'd be more open to buying in that scale.
  12. Mail truck is a deal!..........even the Rat trailer is good. thx for sharing
  13. My store Lewisburg got more new stuff (for them) COKE D-50 and Bug, 66 Pontiac, Bat wing. Seems stuff is rolling out in waves......someone is dumping lots of stuff.
  14. WOW....lots of new stuff!!!! Was the old IMC trailer $13???? I'd take another at that price!!!!!!
  15. Right but just paint no body mods. CGI the J for the few seconds on screen
  16. Very well done!!! The J is my favorite prototype racer. Wonder why it was left out of 'Ford vs Ferrari'?? I know it would have been a very short scene but very pivotal to the whole story.
  17. VERY nice paint, build and weathering!!!! My Father in law was a P-36 mechanic most of WW-II.
  18. BTW my Walmart got a R2 shipper with new kits. Picked 2 1966 Mustang 2+2 @ $22 each
  19. If I ever get internet back I'll post pics of my haul from Salem Va store!!! Ford van, turbo rail, Concorde, rancharo oke edition,grove boss. Good haul as my local store had none of these. Thc
  20. My way.................. I rub the tire sidewall on cloth or old T shirt. This kind smooths the surface and makes decals adhere better. Apply tire decal like any decal. I apply Walthers Solvaset to set them and make decal conform. After 2-3 says I spray with 2 light coats of Testors dull coat clear. Results
  21. When the Chevelle AWB kit comes back we will have most of the parts needed I think........
  22. GOOD thing many of those are NOT at my ollies!!!!!! I love them FORD vans!!!
  23. Another great team effort on a issue.
