Has anyone purchased a copy of this new magazine from Amazing Figure Modeler magazine:

I ordered issues 1 and 2 to check them out. I don't expect this to be your standard car modeling magazine like Model Cars or Scale Auto, but it still looks interesting. If anyone has a copy, let me know what you think.

Wow, I am woefully behind the times lately. That sucks that there were only two issues. I thought I stumbled across a cool new find... Thanks for the info, guys!

I've got both issues, if you do any of the Ed Roth Monster or Hawk Weird Ohs models then you should find at least a tip or two. I liked them, wish that the would have continued them even as an occasional special issue.

In regards to the Ed Roth stuff, they approached them from a figure modeler's standpoint versus where most model car builders would approach them from say a car accessory point of view. They sort of don't get the whole Ed Roth or Custom Car, Show Car Scene either, even more so the Von Dutch connections. To them and even some people within the Kustom Kulture scene they're just a coupl weird guys from the 60's! They were but some of the stuff they did was kind of Cool at the very least, takes me back to grade school, Jounior High days, it's like the whole Nostalgia Thing, even at that some people just jump on the wagon whether they get it or not!!
