Bill Eh?

We were a FoMoCo family. My dad's car was a full sized Ford. When we were lucky enough to become a two car family, one of my mother's cars was a Maverick. At 16, when I got my license, the Maverick was my introduction to the freedom of the open road. I wiil definitely be buying this kit, especially if it is a stock Maverick.

All of those Tamiya kits are still very much sought after. A very good score even if they off their sprues and bagged.

According to Hasegawa's website, there are three North American distributors: ［U.S.A.］ Stevens International ［CANADA / U.S.A.］ Lightspeed Global Inc. ［U.S.A.］ Douglas Models Distributors Hasegawa does not sell product to the end consumer, only through their distributors.

Yes Carl, it comes as a kit. The instructions are good, as is the parts fit. The only step that challenged me, was the installation of a couple of snap rings that hold gear assemblies together.

I also like mine, especially when multiple, repetitive holes need to be drilled. I made a small modification to mine.

Corey, you wanted the kit number for the re-release. I provided that with the ScaleMates link.

"Roughroads", love the work around!

My only disappointing experience with a knock-off was with a Veda airbrush. I always learn to disassemble new airbrushes, prior to use. After using and then cleaning the Veda, I started the reassembly process. I was reinstalling the needle chucking guide back into the body. When properly installed, the threaded portion should stop turning. It did not with this airbrush, and the needle chucking guide just kept advancing in the airbrush body until it was way forward of the trigger location. That airbrush was cannibalized for useful and usable spare parts (needle spring, needle chucking nut, etc.). It was no great loss as it was $20 something when purchased. It was a lesson learned though, with no cheap airbrush purchases to follow.

That's the same lack of careful packing that I've experienced from Amazon's model shipping. Looks like lots of pieces have been removed from the sprue in the picture. I sure hope that it is complete.

I'm heading down to the NNL East shortly. Besides great models on the tables, I'm thinking that the vendors might have some items of interest. So what shows up today? My order from Hobby Search. LOL

That Supra looks flawless. I look forward to seeing it in person next week.

Thanks Ken. The artwork is good. But the artwork combined with a tin box is not enough to entice me into buying another.

Would I be correct in assuming that the contents will be the same as those in this boxing? I have a couple of this version as well as an original.
