new reissues except the Camaro.  Dang it. But that gives me more time to complete the OLD kits I have.  Thanks for the news.

Pepper Shaker! Great. At least I can get some fresh decals.

The Gremlin X, a firm mebbe. Have to see what it looks like.

The rest, a huge, steaming bowl of industrial strength 'Meh'..........

I'm in for the '59 Elky though.

Yawn...just a bunch of reissues of reissues..the Gremlin was already out a few years ago as a '75 and '76, '74 might have some minor differences?

So I'll take it the Camaro SS 1LE is the full kit version of the snapper that's been around for a while now of the '17 SS 1LE, based on that $30+ price. They updated the decal sheet and fine tuned the mold a tad so it's crisper on the grilles and such on the '17 FIFTY Pace Car, I'm really happy that they listened and included for instance side marker light decals and the likes. Still though, a list of re-releases...

The MPC Datsun pickup is one I am looking foreward to.  The stock version hasn't been out in at least 35 years...I don't see how that correlates to a Dodge Dart, though

Maybe they are referring to how the molds have been restored? I am just guessing here.

MPC '69 Charger is "back by popular demand", according to the Round 2 website and uh... Yeah, for as long as the Revell kit exists, I don't think anyone's jumping for joy.
 

 

IMO, the MPC body is the better of the 2 versions.

 

As far as the Interior and chassis its hands down the revell kit.

But Its the door scallops on the Revell kit so exaggerated that ruins it for me

The new reissue is the old General Lee kit with different decals and an extra set of wheels, labeled as 'Country Charger' now...

I wonder what the 50 Chevy pickup will be this time. Stock? Coca Cola? Texaco? Hopefully not that horrible 'custom' version.

My wish would be for a 1-1/2 ton flatbed. That will never happen.

I don't see anything on the list this time around that's a "must have". Maybe later...........

IMHO a 2'n1 kit would be the best way to re-introduce this one, but....it kinda depends on the tool layout, one more reason a cluster of smaller tools in kit design in this day and age is the best way towards multiple siblings....

I've only bought the Revell 48 Ford in the last few years. I have over 600 kits , more than I can ever build.I've finally broken the cycle of just purchasing more because I can! Those prices are WAY too high! 

Time to stop buying and start building! To each their own.

I was going on the '74 model year listed. But, this would not be too far off as the last Pacer came with these weird parts as well from this series
