Dave Darby Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Considered it done. I found your picture to be the best example of the chubby grill on the '28-'29 model A . Sorry for the miss step. Not a problem, Greg. All good.
Danno Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Egg sistential... no, wait... that was the Del Rio thread right before we flew off into Latin No yoke.
Jim_Kampmann Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Apparently, several distributors got an April/May/June release sheet from Revell today showing the ship date as June 29...and the last day for dealer orders as June 10....for what it's worth. Those of you that still like the kit had best place your reservations soon, if you haven't done so already! TB Tim, Thanks for the warning, clear the bench!!! Jim
mrknowetall Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 Like Jim K. said! Clear the bench! That's my plan, and I can't wait! I have a few projects to "button up: until then, but I figure the '29 should be in stores by July. Assuming Revell gets them "on the water" in due time.
Marcus M. Jones Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Oh, I like that Model A roadster. I'm already licking my chops. i was just thinkin to myself what kind of monster that old Doc would muster up... i need a case of these right along with a case of each the other model As and all their 32s for starters Edited April 23, 2015 by Marcus M. Jones

Speedster Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Well now I can do Dad's car Edited May 7, 2015 by Speedster
mrknowetall Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Emmmm. June will not be the release date for this highly anticipated kit. Sorry to be the bearer of that news. Late summer is where it's at now. Edited May 9, 2015 by mrknowetall
Brett Barrow Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Emmmm. June will not be the release date for this highly anticipated kit. Sorry to be the bearer of that news. Late summer is where it's at now. As long as I get my coupe by Christmas!
High octane Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 You WILL get your coupe by Christmas, as I can guarantee that. However, which Christmas is still "up in the air."
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I just hope the delay is because the powers that be realized that the better the major proportions and "look" of this kit are, the longer legs it's going to have, and the more repeat and multiple sales it will generate...for a long long time. If it LOOKS like a correct '28-'29 Ford, I really will buy multiples. I mean MANY....and I'll probably buy another one every time I pirate parts from one on the shelf too. But if it's instantly visually "off", well, you can keep it. I'll just keep on using the old (and VERY good) AMT bodies and donor bits from other kits. I've already got plenty of beautifully-done '60s Revell nailhead Buicks, finned brakes from the Revell Challenger, and juice-brake backing plates from the old Revell parts-packs...and many MANY '32 and A-bone frames from both Revell and AMT vintage issues. So...I REALLY hope there's a good reason to buy this newest kit from Revell...I hope it looks RIGHT.
misterNNL Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Let's not forget that unless you are a box art or an OOB builder.......every kit you ever buy is basically raw material.Rejoyce for all the treasure trove of extra parts in the box and buy it anyway!
3100 chevy Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) hobbylinc now indicates late august I was looking forward to getting this one, next thing you know they will cancel it. Edited May 16, 2015 by 3100 chevy
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I was looking forward to getting this one, next thing you know they will cancel it. No...they're probably just trying to get it right. I'd rather have it late and right than on time and dorky.
DaveM Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I was looking forward to getting this one, next thing you know they will cancel it. Way too much money invested to cancel it at this stage. It's going to happen.
Earl Marischal Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 No...they're probably just trying to get it right. I'd rather have it late and right than on time and dorky. Well said, Bill! With you all the way there. steve
