What wagon is Round 2 alluding to? Which Station Wagon would you like to see a model kit of?

Since they're already tinkering with the '67 Chevy Impala tool, I'm guessing that will be the wagon kit

FTFY. I couldn't comb through any additional pages of fantasy wishes, so I stopped at page four, missing Luc's post entirely...but I also hope he's correct. ??

I'm hoping, but not holding my breath for a 1967 Caprice wagon - It looks like the Supernatural kit is set up for that as a next step.

I had a Caprice wagon (and a parts car) long ago - black, gold inside, wood grain, mag wheel covers, big block, automatic, air, 6 way seat, power windows, roof rack, and tach dash.  Started with a $400 car and put my overtime checks in it on a mechanical and cosmetic restoration.  That thing was hard to find parts for and dealing with the anodized trim around the woodgrains was... interesting. I think Round 2 could put the trim for the woodgrain on the decal sheet with the woodgrain then it could be a Caprice or an Impala. The impala wagons that I saw had the same interior.

After watching the video/live stream in question last night, I got the feeling the wagon would be an all-, or at least mostly, new tool, and not Round2 bringing back a '60s era kit. So, with that in mind, and Robert's words above, combined with Bill's post here...:

...a 1967 Impala wagon would make some sense. The wheelbases for all 1967 Impalas are the same, and Round2 just re-tooled some parts for the Supernatural release, specifically including separate rear bumper guard...hmmm:

 

Yes, tail light housings are different, but the design work is all done for the bench seat, column shifter, door panels/cards, hood, grille, and a few others. Not an easy, slam dunk creation by any means, but its's a Chevy, the chassis and engine can carry over unchanged, and it's a gorgeous bodystyle in wagon form, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

 

I may be wrong but I don’t think they will make a new tool. Maybe repair an old one...

Acquired one in resin recently.

That is really nice!

[Casey]

Or, since this "new" wagon was mentioned right after showing the Vega hatchback...it's a companion '71-'73 Chevy Vega Wagon.

So could it be a Vega wagon?

Yes, and it could even be used on the same Pro Stock chassis as the hatchback:

 

Or maybe they are going this direction? I don' recall Jamie stating it was a factory stock wagon:

I would like that...

[alan barton]

I always loved the way Pro Stock Vegas would be doing a wheel stand with the front wheels up yet the rocker panels were sitting dead level!

Completely off topic, I know,  but I had to say it - did that float anyone else's boat?

So back on topic, put me down for a 67 Impala wagon.  What a boat - the perfect cross country drag team tow car.  Yum yum yum!

Cheers

As I've mentioned, per JohnG at Round2, the '63 Nova wagon's interior and chassis molds are lost .

Seems like nobody responded about the wagon on the Round2 site's latest post, so I just now did - it's awaiting moderation.

Forgot about that post - got an answer two days later:

How's about a Revell tooling '68-'72 Olds Vista Cruiser with some 442 hood, back bumper and wheel options????...... And maybe some very cool decals???.... ??

If it's an all new tool, it could only be a Family Truckster. BUT, I'd rather see almost anything else.

The Wagon Queen Family Truckster. I hope its molded in metallic pea.

Considering Tom Lowe’s passion for movie memorabilia that would be a good choice and a snapper would sell well in that market!

[Snake45]

Hey, I had an original idea (I don't think it's been mentioned before in this thread, anyway). 

Wouldn't it be fairly easy to tool up a '57 Nomad from AMT's "new" '57 Chevy? I'll take two, please! 

[Bucky]

'57 Nomad would be nice. I have a couple of the Revell issues.

I always thought the Nomad was the best looking '57 Chevy.

[stavanzer]

Sign me up for a Case of Family Trucksters!  Yes, please mold it in "Metallic Pea" and a don't mind a Curbside, Snapkit.

I'm with you. Revell would be a logical choice as well.

At least 1 for me, a curbside snapper is fine.

Make it a 2-in-1 (stock Country Squire/Family Truckster) and we'll talk.

Well as long as you mention it I would much rather have the stock one. I'll buy 2 if they did that.

Not surprising, they only made about 2500 of them.

Will this be coming in resin, Paul? If so, I'll take one.

Do that and up it to a 3-in-1 so a standard LTD wagon can be build, and I'll buy a case of them.

[slusher]

I hope you guys are kidding, I don’t car for the family truckster...

[ChrisBcritter]

I don't care for it either - just as a means to an end of getting a Country Squire .
