Mike C. Posted October 5, 2023 Author Posted October 5, 2023 looks like I can give the old wallet a rest for model and diecast stuff this month. That Mr. Norms Demon in 1/18 caught my eye a little bit though. 1
RocketFoot Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 That 71-73 Mach 1 at the beginning of the video caught my eye!
Mr mopar Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 I see two kits to get Green hornet and the '70 Dodge challenger with new part rear Go wing just wish Round2 would do a real hard top Dodge challenger
Sledsel Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 Well, the Green Hornet is wanted to do a custom for sure. The exterior post trailer will be a future purchase.
Daddyfink Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 Rest easy Wallet, there is no fight here. And I sure do hope people step up and buy that Hornet thing. You clamored for it, now you have it. So buy it! 1

Richard Bartrop Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Some good news for the space fans, though. 1

1930fordpickup Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 What is so wrong with the Barracuda kit?

Yours would be the only one I ever heard of that doesn't do it. The weekly ad is for all stores (that I know of) and shows the sale every other week.

Jordan White Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Just go to the Hobby Lobby website and check out their weekly ad, it will show whether or not the models are 40% off that week.
drksd4848 Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Another month goes by and…. No 71/72 Road Runner… *sigh* BTW, I wonder if those 1/25 scale kits for October are re-releases or clones…

A few minor things for strictly OOB build-ups : - Incorrect engine compartment - Hodgepodge of 1967-1968-1969 tail lamp /valance - Incorrect, F-250-style 6-lug wheels as the option (thankfully, a nice set of period correct rims were added to the c.2015 ad seq. issues) The kit's good attributes outweigh any of its shortcomings : - Rare-in-1:1 "Recall" (W27) rims - Hurst Dual Gate consolette & shifter (in spite of the kit's having a 4-speed. This is an artifact of the kits' original issues which included a 225 six/ 904 'standard', and a 426 Race Hemi / 727 as the option) - The only game in town for a '67-'69 Barracuda (though I'm keen on the hardtop and convertible styles those years more so than the fast back) - Presents nicely as an OOB 'shelf candy' kit. 1
