Old Buckaroo Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Those are some nice kits being gathered up. Terry - Nice collection on the GM's , I had that Titan back when I was 15 or 16. That makes it an antique in today's world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH we have today does not even deserve to be called junk. Im not referring to models of course, just everything in general. I happen to think were in a golden age of modeling, even if the participants are not as plentiful. I think the possibilties now are greater than thevye ever been. Anyhow, yes Im a sucker for that original issue artwork. I love collecting the originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superpeterbilt Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Since Dave at AITM has some new resin spoke wheels, I started grabbing a few 1/32 kits. Also another 1/16 Aerodyne, 1/32 Pete 352, and a few Snap KWs to build with some young cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Buckaroo Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Very nice additions everyone.Bill - is that a "porta potty" in the upper right hand of your display case?Terry - You can never have to many snap KW's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 It sure looks like one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbill Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 that is indeed a porta potty, lol. put out by scale equipment limited. got it at a show last year, and as i was moving stuff recently, it fell down, i took it as a sign to build it. it's resin, and not quite square, but a cool piece just the same. has like 7 parts, was a fun real quick build, i should get more to fill a flat bed load.

Old Buckaroo Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Tom, that just makes me laugh. I would of never guessed one of those being made into a kit. I would of bought one also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superpeterbilt Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 I picked these up today. So is the Kenworth really 1/24? Or is the same as every other revell Kenworth? Nice score. That looks like 3 really cool kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k100 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 TerryIm thinking its the same as the every other Revell Kenworth, the box is still sealed . I cant decide whether to open it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superpeterbilt Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 TerryIm thinking its the same as the every other Revell Kenworth, the box is still sealed . I cant decide whether to open it or not.I would leave it sealed unless I had a really strong plan to build it immediatley. Then again, I Would probably just open it to see whats unique about it. Nevermind....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) The Revell Kenworth are 1:25th scale, same as the other Revell AG Kenworth's,Revell AG has not done any Kenworth in 1:24th scale and Italeri wich Revell AG sometimes reboxes has not done any Kenworth's at all.The Western Star is an Italeri tooling so it's 1:24th scale same as the Italeri Mack.
