  1. Went today.....picked up 2 kits at 40% off.....a good deal. Got some paint to use on my O3r train layout too......worth the trip.
  2. Revell runs molding machines in a number of places. China is one of them. Poland and Ukraine too.
  3. Moebius, while engineered in USA, is manufactured in China. Salvinos is out of So Cal and Atlantis is out of NY....both will be in better price wise. And yes, shipping container today is toward $25K....no end in sight.
  4. I saw a report on the news a container rate China to USA has gone from $3000 a trip to $20000....I don't see how anyone can make a dime on product from China. Makes Atlantis look smart.
  5. That looks exactly like mine....in use from the early 1990's. I cut the floor out of one ring. $10 very well spent.
  6. Pete/Atlantis says Moon Eyes runs this week......
  7. I have a package sitting in Monroe NJ for 3 days with a 'Emergency Exception'. I asked what that was.....'weather dely' ......funny my friends near Monroe NJ say it's clear and fine........is that the weather they are talking about???
  8. I have some made by JNJ.....PM me if you need.
  9. Yes....that is what I used.......PENNGWEN decals box stock otherwise
  10. Chassis is shared between the classic Monogram GP kit and the Salvinos 2+2 version.
  11. I like it!!!! A great movie vehicle!
  12. Same building?? How many vendors??? thx
  13. "Let's go Brandon!!!"

  14. From the old kits I have it looks like the fillers, splash pans and drop axle were tooled for Salt Shaker and then lost for the reissues. Glad they are back.
  15. Great show....nice model!!!!! I've thought about a Concorde from the series.
  16. If you watch the OCT R2 video the back of the box shows a all new tree to make it able to build the 'SALT' version. Big drop axle and filler parts to replace the stock front fenders and splash pans.
  17. Gotta give it to R2 for getting product in front of new eyes.
  18. Yep....cheap and easy.......
  19. Indycals would get some more of my $$$$ if those came back out.
  20. The 70's McLaren and Penske PC-9 might be better.......we'll see. I'll buy the snap 94 Mustang to build a model of my car I bought new.
  21. My local store got a restock.....same kits.....but more of them.
  22. While it may not be as detailed as the new Moebius kit....still a cool little bit of nostalgia....
