charlie8575 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 There is definitely some interesting stuff happening, or has the possibility of happening. And I want a Snoopy plane. Can that LaSalle be built even sort of stock? Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSchnell Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Atlantis new releases for 2021. I'm interested in the 1/32 reissues of the Buick & Cadillacs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was I THAT obvious?!?!?!?! Yes...I was!!! I thought that the kit was issued once, no vinyl tires.....and if need be issue it w/o chromed, easy reissue. But the GREAT chrome in the Chopper I am sure UNREAL will get it too! thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Bartrop Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Lots of interesting stuff on that list, though the amoeba kit is the one that really caught my attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mistakenly cropped the pages too close, but didn't think too much of as those kits are outside the scope of the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the other Mike S. Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 The only one that interests me on that list is the '57 Eldorado Brougham in 1/25th scale. However, I'm thinking that's probably a typo and it's really 1/32 scale. Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Well, well - wonder if the '56 Buick's grille will be put back to stock? I wish them luck engineering glass for that one and the Eldo; roof fit on the Buick isn't an exact science... I'm happy to see they're selling the new glass for the White fuel tanker as a separate item, although they won't be doing it for the Chevy stake truck.

ChrisBcritter Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Whole list, full size in three easy-to-read pieces: Fast turnaround on the old '57 Chevy hardtop; there probably are some of the Ed Roth edition still in hobby stores. O/T, but I'll probably pick up that 1/48 JN-4 Jenny and the Convair 990 at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I see that there are 5 Ex-Lindberg kits in the mix. 1. Curtiss Jenny 1/48 2. Civil War Monitor/Merrimack 3. Amoeba Kit. 4. SSN 571 Nautilus Nuke Sub 5. WW2 Gato Class sub. (which If I remember correctly, is the oldest Plastic Kit in the USA. Tim Boyd did an article on it in FSM, several years ago. Unbelievable, that tooling that originated in the 1940's, is being issued 20 years into the 21st century) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mistakenly cropped the pages too close, but didn't think too much of as those kits are outside the scope of the forum! Besides the Eldorado, those two airliners are of the most interest to me on that list. The 990 was one of the fastest liners ever made. Near supersonic. Only liners faster were the Concord and it's Russian cousin. Although it's mostly a car forum, most of us build other subjects from time to time as well.
