If so, I'm in for one. most of the stray parts come from the mpc Ramcharger dune buggy ,and 67'color me gone charger funny car !
stavanzer Posted April 18, 2018 Posted April 18, 2018 Yeah, and I know that the Ramhargers buggy has a Model A Rad Shell. Have to wait and see, I guess. Any Idea when the kit will be out?

Mr mopar Posted May 4, 2018 Author Posted May 4, 2018 Is this out now ...? if anyone gets one Please show us what's in the box Please!
High octane Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 I know for a FACT that the Cougar Funny Car kit WILL be out long before I finish the kits I have already started which is not really a lot, however summer is comin' and that means baseball, car shows, and cruise nights. Hopefully I'll squeeze some model building time in also.

Rob Hall Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 'late May' is what is listed on Model Roundup, so coming soon, sounds like.
niteowl7710 Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 Yep it's in the May kit slate at Round2, so in the next couple of weeks.
russosborne Posted May 20, 2018 Posted May 20, 2018 Are any of the online sites listing this yet, either as a pre order or ??? Thanks, Russ
Rob Hall Posted May 20, 2018 Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) Model Roundup has listed for pre-order. Edited May 20, 2018 by Rob Hall

iBorg Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 I asked at my shop today (mine's been on order for over a month), and I was told the Dyno Don Cougar won't be delivered until July 8.......errrrrrrrr.
iBorg Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 Whoever gets it first, can they post the decals? I'm hoping they're more accurate than the Slixx decals which are a whole lot more accurate than the originals.
niteowl7710 Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 There's at least 4 listings on eBay right now, I'm might request that July 8th shop check their order again.

Agreed. the decal sheet will determine how well this issue sells,,,or not . it WILL be the determining factor if I buy one or not
iBorg Posted June 7, 2018 Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Mine is on pre-order simply because of the decal sheet. It appears there were three paint schemes for the car. The original did not have the gold that's on the Slixx sheet. The gold hood car appears to have not been driven by Don but rather Frank Oglesby the majority of the time. If my attachments work correctly, the first two are the original paint scheme, then the gold hood with Don driving and finally with Oglesby. I much prefer the original scheme. r Edited June 7, 2018 by iBorg trying to get photos in right order
Vince Nemanic Posted June 7, 2018 Posted June 7, 2018 Not the gold on the cover of Hot Rod. Way more subtle than in the later shots.
Drag Monster Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 Here are the decals included in the kit compared to the slixx decals. Any Idea which are more accurate? The Slixx decals have the Gold lace pattern the kit decals have a multi colored circular pattern and allow more of the body color to show through.
Mr mopar Posted June 8, 2018 Author Posted June 8, 2018 I would have like to seen the word "ELIMINATOR" in gold fold , But I'm glad MPC did it this way .
