  1. What isn't this guy on?
  2. Great movie, I hate how it's not as well known as other car/bike movies. Plenty of sweet old cars and bikes there too.
  3. Some movies you have to watch more than once to fully understand,for example "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" is the best example. I think I've seen Pulp fiction,Blues Brothers, Drive, all the F & F movies,ect. a dozen or so times.
  4. Well I would say they have a good reason to be under a close eye, being as they have had 67 million cars recalled over a nine month period. 67,000,000 Is an absolutely massive number,one that will be remembered for years to come. I don't care if your a GM guy or not that is an unacceptable number of recalls, one that really never should have happened.
  5. Nice build, I'd love to get my hands on one of these.
  6. Unless you have a statement from Revell that specifically states they are not going to produce one, It's still entirely possible.
  7. I almost feel bad for them,almost. All of this could have been avoided.
  8. The chances of them knowing the the boxes contained model cars is ridiculously low, all they saw was an opportunity to maybe get something decent.
  9. I know it's not kindergarten,but not everyone does. Just because employees A & B have a good work ethic doesn't mean that employees C,D,E,F,& so on will. In my opinion if someone is not doing their job on a regular basis then they serve no purpose to said company.
  10. Not only is that a lot for one man to keep hold of,also it helps prevent bias when your not the only gun in town.Not saying it's happened much here,but its a method that has worked well in the past.
  11. I know it's more of an issue on individuals rather than the company (Which should watch their employees better,IMHO) but I feel like there are times when this clip feels very accurate.
  12. I love the BAT's design. The rear of it always makes me think of a '63 split window that had the edges rolled in and the trunk pulled down, almost like it suffered serious heat damage.
  13. The new kit is full detail,there are even pictures of the box art car floating around. A few people have done some math and say that the car should easily swap with the Johan shell to make a decent full detail kit.
  14. They may be different body styles but the both have very similar if not the same chassis/engine bay which is very helpful for a full detail build of a '72 Torino.
  15. Still shooting at the wrong target, what I was trying to convey was that you used context clues to figure out what a YouTube to MP3 site was. I could honestly care less about the adventures of Harry the Pirate (The chances of this conversation not having a pirate joke were pretty slim to begin with,arggg) and your morals and ethics.
  16. Since your a sharp guy I would have figured you'd be all over it,especially after the part of my comment that you neglected to include in the quote. Like I said I'm not a strong advocate of using it (Not saying I haven't used it in the past,just not for all my music) but sometimes it's one of your only options when looking for a specific song. If you want a better way to do something similar SoundCloud and BandCamp have tons of free music(Not much mainstream or old stuff) put up BY the producers of it, both of those sites are my go to places for electronic music.
  17. Awesome idea! Looks like it would be sick as an arctic exploration vehicle. I still love the way this is going though.
  18. Just use a YouTube mp3 site and save the albums on your computer,when you want to listen to them no ads! Not necessarily promoting this but it's an option.
  19. It's got a really nice stance to it, I love it all except for the car bra(Easy fix).
  20. Before the trading vultures swoop in I'll tell you this, the Revell '74 Torino is going to be out within a few months (From what I heard last) and would make an excellent doner for the Johan kit.
  21. Great review Tim, plenty of pictures and well written segments. This looks like a decent kit but I still have no regrets about purchasing my Tamiya kit a few months back.
  22. Well you seem to be one of the few who enjoy it as it certainly wasn't Chrysler's best seller. The Prowler did have potential but I feel as if it was introduced at a bad time, the whole "Retro" styling wasn't nearly as big as it is today.
  23. "Change is the only constant in life" Retro is cool and all but only in certain dosages, Imagine if the big three decided to go retro during the 1960's and all the 60's cars looked like they were from the 1930's. Don't fear change, accept it.
  24. That thing is beautiful, I imagine it's an absolute monster.
  25. Forgive my lack of knowledge on fully electric cars but aren't they all automatic? It sure looked like he was shifting something. I know with electric bikes it's just a twist and go thing, really weird.
