Howard Cohen Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 I got this from another group... Ed Sexton has been hired back to head up product development at Revell. Not only is this news great for Ed, it's great for all modelers as well as Revell and perhaps signals a positive change in the economy. I hope all of you who know Ed personally and even if you don't know him, will extend your congratulations to Ed and his family…welcome back Ed!
Van Halen Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 could you or anyone give me some info on Sexton ? Ive never heard of him before
MyBradKeselowski Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Does this mean we will see some good release's in the near future?
Zoom Zoom Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Great news for Revell. Makes me wonder if the recent job posting for that position, with the ridiculous "will not pay to relocate" was just a corporate HR department ruse to competitively "search" for a viable candidate all the while knowing who they were going to hire. But I have to wonder...how much of Ed's influence at MRC was behind the announced Academy Cobra Daytona coupe kit, and wondering what the ramifications are, if any. That's a true holy grail for many modelers...an affordable and good Cobra Daytona coupe.
Jeff Johnston Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 Given Revell's upcoming new releases, (vintage midgets & Funny Cars, among others), as well as the good new & modified reissues. (72 Cutlass, new Dodge Challenger, etc.), we've been getting since Hobbico took over, I'm not sure what you mean? Revell is the only domestic model company that's given us anything new for several years now. I agree Bluesman. Having Ed back is the icing on what I already consider to be a pretty tasty cake LOL
Exotics_Builder Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 It was confirmed at our Model Car Club meeting on Saturday that Ed Sexton is definitely back at Revell. He was to start Monday 6/21.
Brett Barrow Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 Say goodbye to your stock steelies and hub-caps, the age of DONKS and California Wheels has returned!!!!! Nah, I'm just kidding, really, though I did like the direction Revell was/is heading in, I wish Mr. Sexton all the best in his return to the job. I hope he's able to focus more on Product Development now and less on the day-to-day of running the company.
MyBradKeselowski Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 (edited) As we are getting the 72 Cutlass, 66 Impala, 68 Hemi Dart. I was meaning are we going to get more Muscle as releases like we have been getting? Edited June 24, 2010 by kaseykahne09
