I love these kits and at one point was thinking about buying one but they're just too expensive and the reissues really just do for these kits

they're literally selling everything. I walked out of that store with so much stuff (I even took the boss's chair) but seriously they're selling a lot shelving that looked great for display purposes and the manager just started throwing stuff in. Se was like if you take this ladder I'll throw in this book shelf for free and they had signs all over the store that said reasonable offers NOT REFUSED some shelving was 3 big ass book shelves for one hundred dollars and they're offering a bunch of power tools at the store we went to. The lady even said that they were selling the eight camera security system and the safes in the back. We wound up with a good amount of shelving and one of those ladders that rides on rails and a few chairs and a stool. But be warned by the time we got there they had sold a lot of stuff. But they still had a bunch of stuff left they even had a few tables full of office supplies and they took us back to the break room and we bought a few things out of the employees offices. They were even selling the coffee shop that was in the store the counters and all even the ice machine was sold. Don't take me wrong they were still selling books I saw one lady walk out with like twelve copies of the twilight books. But most people were there for the massive furniture sale that they were having.

It really depends on what I'm building and how rare it is. If I'm building a Tom Daniels red baron for instance I may put less detail than if I'm building something more rare or serious

the amount of detail you put into this kit is simply amazing. It's almost hard to believe the amount of detail you put into it.

So why doesn't someone e mail the people at round 2 and ask why these kits are being canceled? It's not like the interest for these kits has disappeared.

I would have to agree with k9 the badman isn't that unique but it doesn't really qualify for the worst personally the worst would come down to a tie between the milk trike the kit doesn't fit together well and the vw rolls now that kit was cheesy. On the other side of things my favorite kit would probably be the li'l gypsy wagon closely followed by the Koo Koo kar

I find it a little odd considering that there was such high demand for this kit I also find it odd that they haven't been reissuing many show rods in staid they have been reissuing a lot of boring stuff with exception to maybe one or even two cars. I personally don't feel that they have reissued anything good this year and I find it odd that they have all of a sudden sopped reissuing all the cool Bogosain stuff. I mean there were so many more cars to reissue

also did any one of you see his second auction he is trying to pass off both of those kits as original 1967 kits even though in the last auction he said that they were both from later dates

it's not really helping the value at all the reason we buy kits in original packaging is to guarantee that it has all the parts. if someone pulls off the packing of a kit there is no guarantee that all the parts are going to be there. So resealing the kit to preserve the collect ability is somewhat odd and stupid
