mademan Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I just got my couple of AMT 2010 Camaro kits, and I had seen that no-one had showed this kit in here yet. Here are a few pictures of the box/contents. contents are nicely packed into the box It is a curbside kit, so no engine detail, not too many pieces, however the interior is multi-piece. very nicely done too. The seats and dash are moulded in a hard black "rubber" and are packaged in with the tires. painting them may be a hassle This is Just the body/chassis with the bumpers stuck on, and the wheels/tires which use the metal axle mount contains white and black SS decals If anyone would like any additional photos, just ask and i will gladely take some. over-all it is a great representation of the subject, the best we have gotten so far, I am still waiting for the Revell full detail however. But in the mean time, I can build a nice curbside replica of my 1:1 Edited January 12, 2012 by mademan
martinfan5 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 It looks just the like the prior AMT camaro kit, just minus the engine, which wasnt that great anyways . I am looking fowrad to the Revell version
horsepower Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 what is the part that is off/missing from the tree, next to the center console?
mademan Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) It looks just the like the prior AMT camaro kit, just minus the engine, which wasnt that great anyways . I am looking fowrad to the Revell version This kit is totally different, the last one is a 2006 Concept Camaro..... different front and rear valances, interior, etc. The body is much more accurate, as well as the correct side panels (rockers) which are separate pieces. However the box art depicts an LS or LT model without the chin spoiler/ small upper grill on the bumper etc. Edited January 13, 2012 by mademan
Rob Hall Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Interesting..hadn't noticed the box art pic was of a 1:1 V6 model..I guess Round2/AMT didn't proofread their box art closely. It will be fun to sit this kit or the Revell one down w/ one of the concept car models and see the differences...the concept car body was a hardtop, lower and wider than the production car, and a bit longer w/ a lot of detail differences...
Greg Wann Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 They need a nice convertible version with a uptop.
Rob Hall Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) They need a nice convertible version with a uptop. An AMT curbside convertible kit is coming, don't know if it will have an uptop or not...looking forward to that one. My local Chevy store has a couple goregous convertibles on the lot, wouldn't mind doing a kit in a similar color combination to ones I've seen there.. Edited January 13, 2012 by Rob Hall
blubaja Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 There is nothing RS about this kit. Fail AMT!
mademan Posted January 14, 2012 Author Posted January 14, 2012 .... RS package is interior trim and fog lights as well as halos.... Not sure what you are referring to
MyBradKeselowski Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Thanks for the content pictures, as I seen this one in my LHS and was wondering if the parts were the same as the their 06 Camaro kit...
mademan Posted January 14, 2012 Author Posted January 14, 2012 the overall quality is way better too. I grabbed 4 of them, to tide me over until the revell release.
blubaja Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 .... RS package is interior trim and fog lights as well as halos.... Not sure what you are referring to The front bumper is SS spec and there are no RS badge decals. Seems you can only build the body as an SS. Making mine into an LS anyway haha! I apologize if I'm wrong tho:/ I wish I'd just missed something in the kit lol.

Making mine into an LS anyway haha! I apologize if I'm wrong tho:/ I wish I'd just missed something in the kit lol. Don't think there is any difference between the SS and RS bumper..according to the GM site, the RS package adds 20 inch aluminum-colored wheels, body color roof ditch molding, HID headlights and body-color shark fin antenna, and a badge.. the box art picture is of a 1:1 LT/RS instead of an SS..

blubaja Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 All the reference I've found shows no scoop in the bumper for an RS trim. Being the most obvious difference between RS and SS lol.
mademan Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 All the reference I've found shows no scoop in the bumper for an RS trim. Being the most obvious difference between RS and SS lol. youve been looking at the LT - RS , it is the v6 and doesnt have the scoop in the top of the bumper cover. The SS/RS has the scoop, as do all of the SS models. The RS package is Projector Headlights with integrated Halo rings, Fog lights, 20" wheels and sport tires. I know this as I have a 1:1 2011 Camaro LT(v6) which I am trading up for a 2012 RS/SS1(v8 6spd)
blubaja Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Ooooool! Lol. Thank you for clearing it up for me:) didn't realize there were different trim levels of RS!
Rob Hall Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Ooooool! Lol. Thank you for clearing it up for me:) didn't realize there were different trim levels of RS! The key distinction---LT = V6, SS = V8. RS is a trim level that can be applied to either model.
blubaja Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 I was lost on thinking RS was specific to itself:)
