The 'Smart' phone has made many under the age of 35 dumb as a box of hair. A instant encyclopedia in your pocket means you can survive in this world and know nothing in your brain. I watch, with some fear, the TV shows where they ask when was WWII or something along those lines and people are so far off........

And like the Nova wagon, OLDS and a huge number of kits Model King restored with RC2 & R2 it can be done if DEMAND was there. You did note I posted Firebug box......so yes, I did know what happened to ZZR. Thx

Remind us as it gets closer.....I am hoping for a busy summer!

I bought that kit back years ago when it first issued. Love to see it built.

Both of those items are being driven by Dave Burket Model King. Thats why Revell did one a few years back (plow).

Had to pick up some auto parts today and drove the 2 hors....so went by Hobby Lobby while there. The lady was just finished marking the Testors spray cans to $1.57. I got first pick. Not a big Testors fan any longer but at this price I bought 15 cans for about $22.....good deal. Mike: I was in the Mooresville store in 2019, last visit to Charlotte area (Roval Race) it IS heavy RC....but I know a lot of NASCAR drivers, crew are into the R/C thing.....and Go Karts! Never been blown away by HTUSA.....we were asked to join way back when the franchise first started. We saw no benefits.

Side note: Hard to believe Charlotte still without a regular hobby shop. Back in the day I could spend a day off visiting the many shops from Monroe to Gastonia. Modelers Hobby, Science Hobby, Action/Whistle Stop and even our shop Deb's Model Car......how does a city that big with that much $$$$ not have a shop?

My understanding this is a modified tool with SOME new parts. I thought the body was 'corrected' along with new tool bumpers and grille. Maybe I'm mixed up.

That is about perfect!!!!! Now you need a race ready Trans Um Tirebird!

I can see that at the LA Car show around 1966.....great outside the box thinking.

I hit Revell up for the S&H Torino in 1984......it took a while but I got it!!!

Drop R2 a note saying so......it does make a difference!

ZZR is my grail. The kit is not that good, I have 3 junkers, and the real car was an oddity for sure. But I love the film for the campy 60's style that brings back growing up in SoCal...... My dream is to get a mint or new kit and build it with a full detail chassis and correct a few things.

Same here.......my go to was 'Flex-i-file' glue, paint or Tamiya masking tape. Always something. Last 2 visits I left with zero.

Back when I printed 40% off I'd print extra and hand them to anyone in the model isle.....99.999% of the people did not know about it. I hate the loss of the 40% as I will never get supplies at a deal.....but Hobby Lobby knows what they are doing......still making $$$

I understand the need for ads.........but agree the ads that are 2 or 3 screens tall seem out of place.....and they are often blank pages!

Very nice work!!! I bought one to build the car from 'Romancing the Stone' film!

I want 2-3 of these.......

No first hand info here.....but I worked for Gofer at one time. He was a big hobby distributor at one time and did private issue kit and I think he knew Pete at Atlantis....so makes sense he would have Atlantis runs some stuff. They may be over runs of items Atlantis is doing.

I have asked about both. Both were altered and would need retooling. I kinda doubt ewe will see them again.

The original Monogram tooling of the Vette was for a model of a car from a TV show. The TV did not have wipers so neither did the kit. The TV show was gone quick but not the kit!

Yes...funny stuff.
