catpack68 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) A all new square body blazer?! YES!👍 Edited October 14, 2023 by catpack68 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toner283 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Hopefully that all new blazer is a hint of things to come. IMO, and all new, modern tooled, correct square body (long box!!) in 1/25th scale would be a big winner for Revell. They would be able to create multiple versions four different releases of the truck like Moebius did with the Ford pickups. Long box, short box, two wheel drive, four wheel drive, GMC, Chevrolet, big block, small block, dually, work truck, crew cab, lifted four-wheel drive, slammed two-wheel drive. An endless combination of possibilities for future releases. With square body trucks being as popular as they are right now, and the only other options being the ancient 1/24th kits which are poorly detailed at best or resin - an all new square body pickup kit would most likely be a big winner. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AMT did that in their "For 1968" Firebird. Never an option but it does look nice nonetheless. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Diamonds are Machever kit is already out in Europe, so the North America box oughta hit within 3 months...or one would hope anyways. Wouldn't surprise me if there isn't a totally different kit based off the tool by the end of 2024 unless they choose to space it out further.

It would be somewhat...short sighted...to make a whole new tool of something basing it on a specific vehicle and then not tool up the parts to match said vehicle. You can always come back later and release a bigger wheel/tired "Custom Off Road" Blazer later. In fact I'd expect it since very few if any kits are one-off use items. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Woodruff Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Good news on the C8 Corvette. Doing the Z51 Convertible & Hardtop. That must be why they delayed the release until May 2024? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Cole Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) Finally a chance to get a chance to replace the Vanagon I built for my nephew. Doesn't matter to me that the new one isn't a Westie. Hoping it's the AWD/4WD version. Horrible old pics. Sorry.

Fat Brian Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 It's a shame we're not getting a full set of Mach 1 stripes. I need a silver set for a build I'm planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m excited for that one too - was this the kit that actually had hydraulics and some lowrider stuff in there already? I had one from a previous issue but someone offered me some ridiculous amount of money for it as I guess they were hard to find at one point… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It originally had plastic tires, it probably still will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
