Atlantis releases Ex Revell 1/32 scale 56 Buick.

[John M.]

I got an E mail from Atlantis yesterday about it. It's taking pre orders on it's website and it has clear glass to boot. It's box art.

That was one of the toughest to get before this re-release. 

With care and modern paints/foil, etc, they are really nice looking. Pity they were not 1/25. 

Hoping they add the glass to the 1/32 Connie Mk. II - that is my favorite of the bunch.

Wish they'd scan it and blow it up to 1/25.

Even as a curbside multi-piece body it would be nice to have another '50s US car.

But the potential market is probably way too small to justify investing in new tooling when re-releasing old-tool kits is apparently working for them just fine.

Regardless of the scale, agree that four doors are a winner. The original edition of Revell's Ford Sunliner was a 55a, such a backdating of the the would be something. I am open to building everyone in the series.

Will wait until I can scrounge a correct grille.

I'd imagine someone will be casting the stock grille/bumper not long after the Atlantis kit hits the shelves.  Shame they don't tool the thing, but they probably wouldn't sell enough additional kits to justify the cost.

I'd love to see this as 1/25
