Sledsel Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Issues with the tooling . Apparently , Round2 was going to do with the 1971 Demon what AMT (et al.) did with the 1970 Super Bee in the 90's :: "bash" it with newer tooling ; to wit : MPC 1971 Demon 340 body (etc.) with the c.1998-issue AMT 1971 Duster 340 (chassis , engine , etc.) .I'm willing to bet that , since the MPC A-body series (1971-1975 Duster , 1971 Demon , 1975-1976 Dart Sport) tooling is every bit of 40 years old , that it's too fatigued to rework . Remember that Round2 was going to take the 1975-1976 Dart Sport tool (which has been reissued and reworked a few times since its retirement as an "annual" at the end of 1976) and backdate its body to 1971 cosmetics (no small feat !) .Perhaps Revell , Moebius , et al. , could do it better vis-a-vis all-new tooling ... (and , no , I'm not knocking Round2 by stating that)Problem with that, most of the latest Revell "New" tool kits have been lacking in accuracy. I could name a bunch, but will refrain myself.

That's a whole lot of speculation; the old annual was never part of the plan. Don't believe everything you hear.
lordairgtar Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Whatever is generally sold at the supermarket? Not sure which that is.Charlie LarkinAll I know is fresh kielbasa is a Milwaukee thing. When I lived elsewhere I could only find smoked. Maybe in yer neck of the woods you can get fresh. Fresh is a light pink like pork meat, smoked is much darker, almost brown. Fresh just tastes better to me. Klement's or Usingers are the best brands. Edited December 6, 2015 by lordairgtar

Hmm...we get smoked. I think I now know where to find fresh. I'll make a couple of phone calls and see what I can scare up.Charlie Larkin
Mr Stock Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) Kielbasa killed this thread?I habe no idea what Kielbasa is or what it has to do with the 2016 releases from AMT/MPC, I know some threads go off track but I'm lost on this one lol........ perhaps it's because I'm from the UK Edited December 11, 2015 by Mr Stock

I beleive its a Polish type of sausage, still popular in Chicago and Milaukee. And it has nothing to do with anything that Round 2 plans on releasing under the AMT or MPC brands in 2016.

horsepower Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) I love kielbasa. yup, big ol' kielbasa on a baking dish of scalloped potatoes, instant dinner. Edited December 12, 2015 by horsepower
unclescott58 Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Okay, for you guys that like kielbasa, was explanation of what it is correct?
DanR Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Yep, it's a sausage, a little spicy. Goes great with mustard, eggs, rice...
Rob Hall Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 All this talk of sausage has me craving currywurst.....
Crazy Ed Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Yep, it's a sausage, a little spicy. Goes great with mustard, eggs, rice... Or slice into ~1" sections and put them in a pot. Then pour a beer over 'em and simmer on a low heat until the beer and all the juices form a Sauce. Serve for a snack (or if you make enough - Dinner) with Beer using Toothpicks. Uuuummmmmm
unclescott58 Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Is Round 2 maybe missing something here, and needs to add kielbasa to their line up for 2016? Besides the models, slot cars and other hobby related things?

Sledsel Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I made some tonight..... Covered with kraut, banana peppers and mustard on a hoagie bun. Nobody will like me tomorrow
Junkman Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Oh, good old Maxwell Street Polish, mmmmmh!

pack rat Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Hey Mike from Canada, Please tell me a little about your Avatar? Did you paint the Jacket yellow and why?John G at Round2 gave me the bobblehead; it came with the yellow jacket. I found out later it was a limited edition (most are red...I think).

And it has nothing to do with anything that Round 2 plans on releasing under the AMT or MPC brands in 2016. Blame Bob Frias and myself. Somehow, I got to reminiscing about New Bedford and my lingucia addiction (Portugese sausage) and kielbasa got introduced sideways by a third party. Kielbasa is a good seller around here, too. We have a decent-size Polish and Ukrainian population. Maybe we'll inspire them to do decals for a packing company. Charlie Larkin
