S. Svendsen Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 I saw the jackets in person. It's on my Christmas list!
Casey Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 I guess this means the last run of the A-Team van was, well, the last run, much like the forthcoming 1/16 Street Charger kit. I supect there are already enough A-Team vans out there to satisfy most people, though. I hope Round2 releases a poster for each kit in the new Original Art series, too.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if they left the newer parts from the A-Team van as well as the post '77 dash and wheel(s) and the grills that were never offered in styrene.
Rob Hall Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 I pitty the fool who wants to see the A Team van reissued...... I'm surprised Round2 didn't reissue it last year when the movie was out..
Rob Hall Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 This eBay seller has pics of the box in the listing: http://www.ebay.com/...#ht_2966wt_1052 It looks like the boxes will be wider and flatter than what we're used to, but that's fine by me. I'll get one for the box art alone. Interesting..the box looks like an old Jo-Han box as far as the shape..
Eshaver Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Didn't the A- team van have an "Early " as in 70-73 dash in that kit ? Seems to me they did . I remember the weird air box from the factory in the darn few Chevrolet vans with "Factory " air too. You had this huge box that you crawled over to enter the cargo area . Funny as they were competing with Ford's superior design from 1969 . No wonder the aftermarket cleaned up on air conditioning from 1970 to 74......................Ed Shaver
Casey Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Interesting..the box looks like an old Jo-Han box as far as the shape.. Yes, it appears to be much like the Double Dragster and Munster's Collector Tins in size and shape.

Rob Hall Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 If the Gremlin is successful, maybe the AMT Matador coupe and Pacer wagon can be reissued. Or the MPC Pacer if it's tooling exists.
Eshaver Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Thats interesting. I had no idea the Pacer and the pacer wagon were kitted . Ed Shaver
