Brilliant marketing!  Tom Lowe is a TV and Movie memorabilia guy and he understands that it's a much larger market than model cars.  So he's put out many kits with licensing ties that can be sold in that arena.   And the good part is that most of those are kept mint in the box and sit on the shelf in someone's 3 Stooges collection.

We got talking about this kit at last night's MCCM meeting. Several of us were questioning the need for Round 2 to reissue another version of this T. And I agreed. But.... After seeing the box art through the link you posted John, I've changed my mind. It actually looks cool that way it's shown on the box. Now I don't just want one. I need a one!

I don't really care about the stooges aspect, but am glad to see the Model T out again. I wonder if it is the kit with the chopped coupe body, Tall T body or some new combination of bits and pieces.

According to Round2's literature on this, there are enough parts to build two entire Model Ts in the box. 

That was the case with both of the 1925 Model T kits they issued a few years back.

 

You could build one stock version and one hotrod from these kits which is why I expect this is just one of those two coming round again but with new decals and a cardboard backdrop. There have been a lot of T kits though so it seems possible that they could offer a new configuration of parts.  

I can use a few more Model Ts so I'll be in for a couple even if it is just a reissue of one of the above kits.

Easy to assemble?

"All right, you numbskulls, gimme some glue!" :lol:

The above is how my models look when I'm finished with them. And I have the same expression as the Stooges when looking at them. ?

Now that is hilarious in such an awesome way. Thanks for posting this one. That's me at my bench with a kit in front of me!  Priceless. 

Thanks.    Jeff

I was told a few months ago that it would be a reissue of this kit with the Stooges packaging.

That was the case with all three of the 1925 Model T kits they issued a few years back.

And I believe the Stooges one is more or less a straight reissue of the Fruit Wagon kit.

Well, If it is the Fruitwagon, I'm in for one. If it is the Tall T, I'll hafta pass. I will wait and see which it is before buying.

Not at all. Different cabs.
