  1. ?. That looks a lot better than the ProStar.
  2. They’ve brought a few back now, which is fantastic. Ben
  3. I’m not sure how true that is. The T600 definitely uses a lot of the same sprues as the w925. It looks like AMT just added different cab, bonnet, sleeper, grill and radiator. Ben
  4. I personally hope it’s something completely new. That being said, if they’ve found the transtar cab over, I’m good with that too. Ben
  5. I’m surprised no one seems to know more about the project. They’re definitely selling a lot of truck kits in Australia. Hopefully we’ll know what’s cooking sooner rather than later. Ben
  6. I’m weird, I like the tractor. Ben
  7. ? I was wondering why nothing would load after I watched that video! ? Ben
  8. ? looking forward to this! I’m guessing the positive results from the rereleases has caused them to look at taking a chance to do a new big rig. Ben
  9. Mine was that bad too. I sold it on, the next owner didn’t mind. It’s one reason I’m mainly sticking to Tamiya. Ben
  10. Cheers for the comparison. Looks pretty good to me. I’m looking forward to seeing them built. Ben
  11. If people really want the torsion bar suspension, Auslowe stock it. Cheers Ben
  12. I plan to go classic McLaren brilliant orange for the body panels and brilliant blue for the calipers and aero accessories. Ben
  13. On the real Senna, the owner can’t access the engine (researched the actual car as soon as it was announced) To get to the engine requires a McLaren workshop. Cheers Ben
  14. Yep. You’re probably right about the licensing. I like what I’ve seen in the video about the Senna. Separate brake calibers look fantastic, plus the modular construction (judging from the parts on the sprue). I’d be very pleased to see another GT3 race car too. Ben
  15. The Aperta would be a no brainer for Tamiya. Not sure why it hasn’t come to fruition. Ben
  16. I’m in love. This looks to be next level. Ben
  17. Well, the KW transit mixer is making a comeback, so I reckon they might release the Transtar II. Ben
  18. I love my classic trucks. I own a real Mack B61. I’m currently building an Auslowe Alaskan hauler conversion. I sent photos to Jan from Czech Truck Models to help his Mack B Model project to help with the Australian specific items such as sun visors. I dare say you’re right about a classic KW selling well. I would love to see a KW W990 or Mack Anthem. I’m glad we have a pretty good after market to supply some options. Ben
  19. I’m loving the reissues however, we really do need some brand new big rig kits. There is some great subject matter and Moebius with their Lonestar issue around a decade ago was a great start. I really thought Round2/AMT or Revell would’ve done a current American big rig by now seeing how well the reissues are doing. My plan for my mixer is to use an Alaskan hauler hood and change the wheels. Ben
  20. I’m currently building one of these too! Very nice. Ben
  21. Those prices are ridiculous. C’mon AMT Round 2, bring something new and original out. Ben
  22. I replace the wheels and tyres with Auslowe 1/32 wheels. I’m also looking at aoshima wheels. Ben
  23. I’m flogging a dead horse, but I would rather see the 1/32 Mack SuperLiner and Ford LTL 9000 reissued. Great box art though. So much has to be done to make the italeri superliner accurate. Ben
  24. Looks pretty good to me. Those wheels are even pretty nice with the right wash. Ben
