Mr mopar Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) The New Revell web site is up and running , Have a look ! Edited December 10, 2018 by Mr mopar
dbostream Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Cool, same style as Revell Germany makes sense. Only thing I cannot find is the list of build instructions that they had on the old site, can only find instructions for the cars featured (currently in production?) on the site. Edited December 10, 2018 by dbostream
Rob Hall Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 They still have some work to do, they have the Porsche 918 Spyder listed under 'Street Rods'..
mikemodeler Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 https://revell.com/ Does look nice, hopefully it will be well managed and over time more stuff will be added.
Jhedir6 Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 Interesting. Doesnt seem like you can buy direct like you can from Revell Germany. They had some nice sales on in the past, was hoping to see that come from the USA site, guess it could still happen.

A cursory examination of the site revealled the presence of instructions via a pdf download : https://www.revell.com/products/cars/muscle-1964-to-1974/70-dodge-challenger-2-n-1.html
Daddyfink Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 And just for giggles, a link to the site.... https://www.revell.com/

Still possible to use a cached version of the old site's list though: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:4d5j3n73bXEJ:https://www.revell.com/support/instructions.html+&cd=1&hl=sv&ct=clnk

martinfan5 Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 I think it looks a bit better than the former Revell USA website.

Even before everything went under German ownership there was never an *Official* announcement that the U.S. side was going to release the kit itself. With the consolidation being done and everything day to day effectively under Revell"AG" management I'll be curious if anything they make specifically for the European market is reboxed for North America.

SSNJim Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 My understanding is that there is no RG or RUSA anymore, only Revell.

stavanzer Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 Joe, you are correct. What I call "Cotton Candy" websites. Pretty Pictures, but no real substance. Like Oakland, there is no "There, There"

Was going off the rear distributor and the shape of the exhaust manifolds. Since they generically describe it as a V8 and don't give a brand, it's a moot point..
