gasman Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 all you want to do is clean some promo's. and the next thing you know there completely apart. this happened last night to a rare AMT 98 Olds Intrique, Brookfield 95 Monte Carlo, and AMT 91 Geo Storm. all I wanted to do was clean them, but then I decided they needed a little more detail. next thing you know there all completely apart. and I'm planning new projects for them
Zoom Zoom Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Oh no! Don't do it! You'll destroy their value! Oh wait...you can get any of them for well under the MSRP of a new Revell kit. I love destroying promo value whenever I get the chance So what's in store for these models?
JamesW Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Same thing happened to me with a Brookfield 1999 Ford F-350 Crew Cab Dually. But I had intended on a new paint job when I bought it.

I can never wait to do that when I get a Promo, ofcourse I just don't currently have a work space or supplies to do so! I picked up a clean '62 Falcon a few months back, and as soon as I got it, OOPS it came apart on me Guess I shouldn't have take the screws out, or pried on the interior.... Yeah whats the Plan Gasman???

Gasman, I do the same thing too...I tell myself not to dust & clean them but...you know the rest of the story! Just call it, "making improvements". Grimreaper, I collect those Brookfield & Matchbox 1/24th trucks (Texaco, wreckers etc) and always repainting them & adding details...everytime I clean & dust one, its on the workbench for a overhaul. Drives me nuts when I do that but they do look much better right?! ~ Jeff
randx0 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 What's "cleaning and dusting"? What is value? Promo? seriously though those brookfeilds are nice and and come apart so nicely it's like their asking for it they're all asking for it.
