  1. Would the increase be more than 25% if the manufacturing was done here ?
  2. I have to agree with this, you get a much better quality decal sheet, and you get the full decal sheet as intended.
  3. Looking forward to trying this out( its not new, been on the market since 2009 I believe)
  4. NASCAR teams in the modern era ( I am using 90's to current as modern) would clear coat over all the decals for the Daytona and Tallegeda races, Ive heard teams clear coating over wraps too( for those two tracks) that is really only the time it happens. I see both sides of the table it and both have good reason for/against, yes, I clear coat over the decals on a lot of my NASCAR builds, and I have no cares to give if its not 100% accurate, some of the decals that are out there, need to be coated as they are not at all durable, like ALPS printed , Ive rubbed ALPS printed decals off from basic handling during the building, so yeah, protecting them is a thing.
  5. I spray Testors Dullcote over decals and have never had any issues with doing so.
  6. Its based off the Estima Lucida/Emina kit from the 90's , its going to have a whole lot of new parts. New genuine front and rear bumper -New genuine aluminum wheel -New original rear wing -New set of pre-formed sheet -New rear wiper -New Decal -Twin moon roof -Window frame masking seal
  7. Good gravy boat, Round2 is creeping those prices up . Those two 1/24th kits stick out like a sore thumb in a sea of 1/25th scale kits, no doubt those are going to be reboxed.
  8. And then photo of it too , I am going to update my post .
  9. Lancia LC2 is Protar tooling from 1984 being rebox, so its not really "new"
  10. LOL just had the R8 show up, but not the Porsche.
  11. Here is a shot of the BMW M8 So far no one has really been interested getting good photos of the Taxi, so these had to be cropped in some Like James said, I am sure we will get better shots of some of these as the weekend plays out.
  12. The Toyota Starlet
  13. How about a couple of new tooling from NuNu And some displays from Beemax
  14. I think the notable thing here is the reissue is going to have the parts modeled in white instead of orange.
  15. A look at the built up of the AMG And Tamiya also had on display the upcoming reissue of their Countach kit , with a clear coat
  16. You read my mind Dave, I honestly agree with you , it is on the pricey side for sure.
  17. Just arrived today, the kit that teased for a few years, here we go, enjoy, video coming tomorrow for those what to hear my lovely voice.
  18. And this small shipment from HLJ showed up today as well, I wasnt expecting it this soon
  19. Its finished, paint from Scalefinishes, this one reminded me I am not as good of a model builder that I think I am ( I am having a pity party for one) on to the next one. Still trying to figure out how I manged to get a tripod stance on a metal axle kit :|, yea!, thats how good I am
  20. Here we go guys, if you want to see the video, yalls know where to look.
