I’m impressed they continue to invest in the model side of the business - the addition of Aaron Skinner seems like a great idea!

It’s been about a year since they were late with the video. The rumor then was Chad was cavorting with Taylor Swift, and with the Super Bowl coming up that could be what he is doing this year too. looking forward to seeing what new plastic is on tap.

One word - stupendous!

It was on track for a while but certainly isn’t any more. The problem for them they may well lose subscribers to the new mag if it’s any good. The new glacial publication schedule could result in a small circulation getting smaller. It’s too bad as it’s a very good msg.

Nice! I need to do one with the four port injector scoop!

Yes, the 1/16 McCulloch Revellution Duster. Wonder what decals Atlantis will offer?

That looks great! I enjoyed building mine except for assembling the roll cage - even CA glue didn’t help a lot. Congrats!

Very nice! Coincidentally, I am getting ready to build the jungle Camaro myself. To get ready, I am building the Revell Hawaiian right now so that I can figure out what modifications to make when I build my second one and have to adapt the tin and the Camaro body to fit. Some of those comp resin bodies do have slightly strange proportions. I have a resin Camaro body that I bought off eBay years ago. No idea who the caster was, but it looks pretty good.

Two thumbs up!!

All 3 are fantastic

These are both great suggestions. I had looked at Cults 3D and couldn't find any - thanks for pointing these out!

In agree. Headers for a BBC would work. If anyone has any ideas pls let me know!

I am planning to build Revell's '29 Ford Roadster with a Hemi instead of the kit engine, but I still want over the frame headers, similar to what is shown in the pic (the kit engine is an SBC so the kit's over the frame headers won't work with a hemi.) Replicas and Miniatures of MD offers them, but they are $8 plus $12 shipping, and I don't need any other R&M products, so $20 seems like a lot for a pair of headers. 3DScaleParts on eBay offers a set for $15 and $4 shipping, so that is not much better. Any other resin, 3D printed or kit parts you can point me to? Thanks!

I was really liking the fairly regular cadence of issues that I believe started when Larry got on board. And I also think the magazine does an amazing job of integrating content from the forums here into the magazine itself - probably better than anyone else with any sort of print publication. But now it looks like at least 4 months between issues. I guess I have to realize that the magazine is really a bit of a hobby itself for the folks putting it together. Hoping there is an issue 226 coming.

I assume R2 people are smart enough to figure out whether they will make more money selling fewer kits and a higher price, or whether more kits at a lower price is better for them. Personally, I have to really, really want it to fork over $34 or so for a kit with tooling that was paid for back in 1972 or whenever. All that said, R2 is putting out a LOT of ads with deep discounts on kit prices recently. Makes me wonder if sales are slower than anticipated and they need to either bring in some cash or get deadweight out of their warehouse.

That is great! Flathead, and esp the blower, look so good. And if that kit is anything like the Mooneyes dragster, it is fiddly! Nice job.

Really nice!

Looks really nice and brings back good NASCAR memories!

Great work! And nice job with the white pens.

I’m thinking the Streaker might good for the upcoming 24 hour build. Hopefully the new parts fit well.

Nice concept and nice paint!!!!!

Both are super-beautiful!!

Spectacular! All thumbs up!?

Picked this up at Ollie’s as an easy way way to add a C7 ‘Vette to my collection. Paint is Tamiya Silver Leaf topped with Fire Scale paint Porsche Amethyst. The Amethyst went on great, but seems much darker than the Porsche color - It’s hard to get a decent pic of it. Topcoat is Testors Extreme wet look clear.

Great concept and it came out so well!!! And great color and gloss!
