Sledsel Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Found this sealed at a thrift/resale store for a really good price. Amazes me the quality control or lack there-of from Ertl. The box build is missing fuel tanks, tail light panel, rear fenders and mudflaps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveracer Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 @Mr Mopar. Can you take a close up of the details on the front fender, side view and the door cut lines of the Demon? I am curious how fine the details look on these, as I assume they are Rapid Prototype models. What material are they, and are they brittle, sandable, flexible, etc etc?

I started building mine and then put it back in the box and never looked at it again...took a long time before I wanted to build a kit again.

bluestringer Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Was at my local Michaels yesterday just looking around and saw they had a few kits. I had thought they stopped carrying them. There wasn't many, so may be some leftovers. Picked up this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have it but it looks really bad. Maybe i shuld get another to build and put next to it just as a scale of how much better i have become since then? Great idea.

They seem to discontinued models as well, but it is a smaller footprint than most of them. This must be fairly recent, because they had a bunch of the Revell Jag FHCs on the shelf not long ago. They didn't have embossing powder either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a shop north of me here in San Diego that handled high end Datsun restorations and I think it went through that shop. He had a couple of them in the shop at one time, but they didn't disclose who the owners where. I might ask them before they move out of the state early next year.

That’s a good deal - I saw that one seller who had them for that price but by the time I clicked to order he had sold out of them 😂. Hoping he gets more stock!

ewetwo Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Started off with a 40 % off one item for Micheals. Hated to waste it so I drove to Albany, NY Micheaals seeing the one nearest me has nothing. They had a really good selection of kits. So I purchased the Monogram 1968 Super Bee there. Then I remembered that right around the corner from that Micheal's was a Walmart. Stopped in there and they had kits. Looks like it must have just been put out on the floor because there were a lot of kit. There I purchased the Ranchero, Supernatural Chevy, The 1969 Cobra Fastback The Nova Wagon and 2 display boxes. A lot of people were looking at them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPi-KM Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I got the Atlantis Mooneyes Dragster, new SAE contest issue, and the "new" Revell '30 Ford coupe at the local HobbyTown. They got in at least 6 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotrod 97 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Found this in my Grandparents' attic. It's open and started, but still in good condition. They had no use for it anymore, so they gave it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
