AMT Hell Drivers Mustang II body issue

[Daddyfink]

Is this one of the most bummed out Mustang II you have ever seen, or is it just me? LOL! Yeah, I think Round 2 owes me a new body.

What the Hey!

Yes, a new body for sure!

[slusher]

I have to agree!

I wuz gonna order a couple of copies of that kit, but now I'll hold off. Please let us know if Round 2 makes good on this and how long it takes...

Surprised no one caught that issue in the test shots.

It Has a Sad....

It looks like the body had a hard landing before it was even assembled into a stunt car!

[Sledsel]

Someone crashed!!!!

Yup, ask for a new body, use that body on the Vega or Pinto modified chassis after removing the front clip!

The test shots were fine. This is a rare case where the tooling got damaged in production.  Replacement bodies were ordered, and we now have some in stock for those who got a damaged body.  Use the request a part link on the Round2 web site.

I did yesterday and received a response today that they are on the case! But, it will be 4 to 6 weeks. 

Here is a comparison to the 2005 issue of the kit.

That looks like an Pixar animation,  Id been waiting for these to hit the market also.  Thank you for the heads up on this kit.
