This is the head from the Moebius 66 ford short bed.

Is their a term to describe this?

I am going to call Moebius Tuesday to see about getting a replacement and would like to accurately describe the defect.

Yes, a short shot.

For what it is worth, I have found short shots in kits from MPC (before being absorbed into AMT), AMT, Revell over the years. I haven't purchased enough from Tamiya to say if their kits sometimes exhibit the issue, but suspect they have higher Quality Control, more checks & balances before the kits are packed. I only have a couple of Moebius kits, and on initial inspection didn't find any issues.

I had a similar thing happen with the Moebius Lone Star kit.  The top piece for the cab was like that.  I sent them a couple pics by email and had a replacement within a week.  Great customer service in my opinion.

That is good to know. The only company i have ever requested a part from was Pegasus and they too responded quickly with a replacement part

Thank you everyone for the replies
