Casey Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I sent a message to Atlantis last week, inquiring about the Revell 1/25 Harley and Honda motorcycle molds, and just received this reply: "Hello Casey -unfortunately the Honda, BSA, and Triumph 1/25 bike molds were destroyed- we are still trying to hunt down the Harley but it might have gone overseas" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not at all sure why the tools would have been destroyed when they were apparently still usable as late as the very late 1990's..... Not saying this isn't correct info, just not what I would have expected to hear.... TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldcarfan Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Maybe if Atlantis sees how well Round 2 is doing by cloning old molds, perhaps they'll be inspired to do the same with these old kits. I'd love to have a few of them. My dad died recently and I found a couple of pictures of him in the mid-50s when he raced Triumph and Harleys in Scramble races. It must have been a workout hustling those stripped down, but still heavy bikes over trails and sand dunes. In his 50s he took up trials racing again for a couple of years, that time with a much lighter two-stroke Suzuki DR. He said it helped keep him in shape, but eventually his knees decided to call it a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
