This looks cool! Is that the chopper from the old Harley F150? Just missing the trailer ...........

That's their old Parts Pack Harley. It was also packaged with a Honda in a "Grease" box.

this one

Interesting, another tooling that's supposed to no longer exist. 

Hope the other bikes "show up" too.

[Dave Darby]

And here I was just happy to see the 29 A pickup back! Lol.

[Mr. Metallic]

Are we sure it’s the Parts Pack Harley or is it new tooling?

[tim boyd]

Yep....it's the Parts Pack Harley....up until today (;) those were going for $150 or more...no longer.  Great choice....Somewhere along the line I was told that the tool for the Harley also included the Honda....so presumably they will have welded off the Honda runners....here's one built from the original parts pack....

Here's a idea take the Harley Davidson Ford pickup truck and the 29 Ford hot rod pickup truck and make a combo kit 

[slusher]

Sharp bike, Tim, so is a parts pack in the future?

[Mr mopar]

I wonder if the trailer in the MPC Monte Carlo will work with this Bike ?

I think it should, they look about the same size bikes.

Yes! That thing is an absolute gold mine of parts!

Interesting! I'm seeing what looks like the original-style tires instead of the radial-looking tires in the previous "rat rod" edition.

I noticed that too. Not sure if those tires have shown up in anything since the Hobbico implosion.  I believe they were also used in the related A sedan and the Tweedy Pie reissue.  Not sure if they were used in anything else?

Also wondering if the steelies/caps/trim rings from the Rat Rod version will be included in this one too?

Interesting question! I like to think it would all be packed in the box, but I do wonder if some content might have been removed to fit the chopper. I don't see any "2 in 1" graphics and the box art seems to indicate only the mags, as far as I can see.

[Matt T.]

Wow. I love Revell’s graphic design lately, both box art and decals. Well done!

The "Monogram" branded Rat Rod version had the steelies, caps/trim rings, & white wall inserts all on separate small trees, bagged together with the tires.  IMHO, that was their way of "gildng the lily" for that release.

I have a sneaking suspicion we won't get those parts with this release since they're throwing in the chopper.  Time will tell...

My guess is it'll be same content as usual, with the addition of the bike. Those mags were tooled to fit those tires.
