Upcoming Revell (Europe) 1:24 VW T2 Bus, "Easy-Click" range.

[Brian Austin]

Has there been discussion regarding this kit?  This would be a "Bay Window" bus, not the "Split Window" models they've done already. This subject has been something hobbyists have been requesting for some time, but I don't recall reading much about it in the forums I frequent.

It was discussed at the time it was announced back in February. Should be out this Fall, oughta be interesting to see how they broke this kit down because the two "Easy-Click" tractors were full detail and pretty good models all things being equal.  This VW is SnapTite, but comes within 10 parts of the new tool Jaguar E-Type glue kit...and that's also more parts than a few of the recent sports car models like the AMG GT and McLaren 570S.

Yeah!, I am really interested to see how they are going to do this tooling ,  I really enjoyed building the tractors , they were just fun kits.

I'm interested in it, even if it is a snap. I like the subject.

I wanted to buy the Greenlight "Lost" diecast as a stand-in for a kit, but now if I can get one of these, I won't have to.

I'm looking forward to this being released, its been sadly lacking in the scale plastic world. There a split screen camper coming out as well sometime

There are plenty of built up/prototype photos of the E-Type but this one is still kind of a mystery although it looks like they will be released at the same time pretty much.

For years there have been discussions of the fairly nice WELLY 1:24 diecast VW but I don't think I've seen one in any shop or model show.  I'd like a T2 for a kitbash.  I'm looking forward to the Revell release.  I can wait a little bit longer.  :-)
