Dragster kits

[rssschris]

I am trying to get other modelers to join with me & try to convience Revell to reissue thir old double dragster kits.

They had 3 that I know of

1 Scarlet Screamer Dragster / Bantam Bomber

2 Mooneyes Dragster / Sanitary T

3 Thunder Charger Dragster / Fumin Fiat

I sent them an email requesting them to be reissued, Maybe if we all email them we could get these kits again.

I emailed Round2 a few weeks ago requesting them to reissue the old MPC "pro stock" series kits & they actually emailed me back & said that they would like to reissue them someday. Who knows- can`t hurt to try.

Thanks, Chris.

The Thunder Charger and Furious Fiat are already re-issued as of this writing (in both collectors tin and boxed set); check the Double Dragster thread in kit reviews and see the builds here in this section. I too would love to see the others re-issued, as the Bantam would be used to model a friends car.

I know that AMT has reissued their Double Dragster kit- in collectors tin & boxed set, but the Revell kits are differant

Hey Chris......thanks for catching my stupidity!! Sleep deprevation and typing (and thinking for that matter) surely DON'T mix.

I would love to see any Wedge type dragster released.

The double with the bantom ans esp. the one with the T would be cool! Very cool!

What's especially attractive to me in these kits are the great Chassis Research and Dragmaster dragster frames. I'd love to see those re-issued in some form. They can be found on occasion on e-bay as Parts Packs but at $30.00+ including shipping I'd like to see some more parts with them. They may be more fiddly than the AMT aprroximations but they are far more accurate.

It would certainly be a "One UP" on AMT (Double Dragster). Talk about a marketing coup.

How about the Tony Nancy triple dragter Hall of Fame set or even the double set
