Just in case some of you haven't heard about it , I got this off of The Model Roundup website . Originally planned for a September release it's now October . I've heard that the Blue Bandito ( VW Copyright thing ) has been completely restored with all of the extra goodies ! The only thing missing is the Cadillac script on the valve covers and Modelhaus has those !

I feel your pain, Dave ! the time I've spent restoring kits that were "never" to be reissued due to copyrights, lost /damaged molds etc... Dragon Wagon , Tijuana Taxi ,Street fighter ,Glitter Bug , The Baron ,Bugaboo ,Tirebird ,Gomad Nomad ...the list goes on On a related note , I am restoring a Horn Toad , so keep your eyes peeled for a new release !

I have about three of the Black/Yellow 29 Pickups, that Monogram converted the Blue Beetle into. Nonetheless, I'll need to get at least one of these. Way to Go, Revell!
(and Thanks, Dave!)
