Thanks, Dave. Atlantis just added this to their facebook page, but no mention of the actual mold: "Going through the Archive came across this Hmmmmmmm!"

My gut tells me much of the fringe Tom Daniel stuff (1/12 Mean Maverick and Super Digger, Ghost of the Red Baron, Unreal Roller, etc) was scrapped in '80 or so when Monogram was in trouble, but IF Atlantis has the mold and is able and willing to produce the GotRB kit again, I think it would be worth a run of 2,500 kits. I could see T.D. fans gobbling them up at $30-$40 each or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of the Red Baron has been high on my want list for over 40 years now. I hope it comes back to haunt my collection soon.

gotnitro? Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hopefully all the molds mentioned are is working order and can be used again ! I've always admired the older kits and the terrific art work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Just seeing that seat and interior parts pack has me dreaming of a miraculous reappearance of some of those great old kits, like the Fiat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Bartrop Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I remember those fondly. If the numbers don't work for selling them separately, maybe combine some of them into a complete model as was done before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Ghost kit to be followed with the LONG overdue SNAP-TITE kit "Li'l Red Baron"! WOW! Edited October 14, 2018 by Casey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, but this is a good example of why people hope and wish a certain mold still exists, even if it seems unrealistic to do so. Agreed, though, this announcement is great news and will make a lot of people very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep your fingers crossed. The Ghost of the Red Baron kit doesn't exactly have a high parts count, and I do wonder if Atlantic has permission/licensing to use the vintage Monogram logo for this reissue, too? I guess we'll find out in a few months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I've never had the slightest interest in Ghost of Red Baron, but when I just saw these pics with the glasses, I realized I could turn one into "Old Velvet Nose," the logo/symbol of the late great Warren Zevon: http://warrenzevon.wikia.com/wiki/File:Skull.png Now I MUST have one!
