It wouldn't be terribly difficult for Round2 to substitute another full-sized Ford car or truck to pull it, though, and re-tool some of the Mustang's missing parts, however. The '69 Galaxie has been reissued many times over the years, maybe 2004 was the most recent?
deuces wild Posted February 8, 2022 Posted February 8, 2022 I already have the twister Nova.... I'll just wait for the new Moebius gasser kit to come out....??

Correct, that Galaxie is still around. Heck, they could even use the 70 4 door as a tow vehicle. http://www.modelroundup.com/v/vspfiles/photos/AMT-38154-2.jpg

Granted, it's two very unique, oddball vehicles packaged together, so maybe apples-to-oranges? Hopefully the Cal Drag Combo is selling well, and Round2 has the '53 Ford Pickup/Mod Socker Hauler combo in the works, so it might be possible.

As for the Shelby, I think the only part missing is the hood, the other pieces were included in several releases I have.

The impending Moebius kits have me on something of a 1G Nova kick. I'm nearing completion on one AMT '62, and as soon as it's finished I hope to start right in on a second one. And then I want to bang out a Twister or Rat Packer pretty much OOB, and by that time we SHOULD have the new Moebius goodies. 1

I didn't realise that it was an actual kit / combo. I'd rather have seen that issue instead of the still-great-but-not-as-cool recent issue with the trailer.
stavanzer Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 His build up of the ole Ratpacker sure looks sharp!
