A lot of us have been getting similar cutters from Wave. We reference the same thing "Like cutting through butter". Also there is a set of cutters called Godhand nippers.

Yes, I know what you mean. It seems like we spend 6 months of the year 'hoping it don't snow' so we can get to events and meetings etc. Hope to see you March 4.

Randy, you have to remember there are a lot of us here that do not have access to Hobby Lobby, Hobby Town, Ollies or Mejers. So when the online guys offer a clearance it's about the best a lot of us are going to get. Count yourself lucky that you can get to HL or Ollies for those really cheap kits.

Assuming Revell keeps going the 29 roadster is supposed to be out soon and then the 30 Coupe some time after that. I would guess not until well into the second half of the year.

Sweet! One of the best builds of this kit that I've seen.

A bit disappointing that a newly tooled kit could be so poorly designed. Especially considering some of the great kits that Aoshima has put out in recent years.

In the last 2 days I've spent over 4 hours clearing snow. About a foot Saturday and another six inches today and it's still snowing. Through it all I keep telling myself at least I don't have to worry about forest fires, mudslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons or hurricanes......at least I don't have to worry about forest fires........... You guys seem to have to pay dearly to live the dream....

Never heard of them. Assuming another type of chinese knock off. Great price for a brush with 3 needle, nozzle combinations. Let us know how it works and it's durability.

Land lines are obsolete? I must have missed the memo. Would give up the cell phone long before I would ever give up the land line. My cell phone gets turned on about 3 times month when I head out of town to a club meeting.

Thanks for the heads up, Bob.

Probably the same reason why we've had nothing but a simple snap together for the current Mustang. You would think a full detail kit of current cars like this would be a shoe in for trying to keep younger modellers in the hobby as they graduate past snap tite kits.

I think we also have to remember this is not the first time Revell has gone through this. Who owned them before Hobbico? Was it Binney Smith? It survived and hopefully will survive this disturbance as well.

Thanks for the clarification, James. I should have picked up on the "distributes" aspect of that statement.

Did not know they owned Italeri as well. This may have a major impact on out hobby. So much for worrying about whether the 30 Ford A coupe will be out again and when. This changes everything doesn't it?

The last picture looks like an Austin Bantam.

Very cool. Nice job of doing a Willys in a different way.

Dan, I'd be happy to box some up and send it to you. We have enough and more is coming down.

Wow, Bill! Definitely not off to a good start in the New Year. Hope 2018 improves for you soon.

Beautiful build of the Ferrari, Nathan.

When I saw It's -29 here, I figured it's a fellow Canadian. Welcome to the forum. You'll find lots of great info here. And it's -24C at my place today.

Hopefully Tom Geiger will chime in as he does this a lot. But the general idea is to complete a build that has been sitting on the back burner for awhile. Between Christmas and the New Year, he takes a model that he has started and has been sitting for awhile ignored and starts working on it to bring it to completion. Basically a push to finish at least one unfinished model.

Very cool use of this tooling. This will be on my must have list.

Welcome to the Model Cars Forum, Tim. A lot of cool info here.

Thanks, John, I appreciate you sharing this information.

A fellow, Bob Shelton, is often selling Cord resin bodies at NNL East and some other shows. I got to know Bob at the Great Salt Lake City contest but unfortunately I did not get his contact info.
