actually looks like a sweet kit I'll check out the box. Revell Germany don't normally do American vehicles, do they? Revell of Germany does quite a few US cars and Semi trucks. The 67 Vettes, 65 Shellby Mustang, 427 Cobra, 57 and 66 Chevy's. Peterbilt, Kenworth semi trucks and a few more. Paul |

'Revell' and 'Revell of Germany' are one company now. RoG was a licensee of Revell but when Revell went through the bankruptcy RoG bought the assets. Now RoG is owned by an investment firm that also owns a number of hobby based companies like Carrera slot cars etc.
Side note: All the Revell Monogram tooling that was in storage in the USA was sold to Atlantis.....this is why we are getting Unreal Roller and other TD kits from Atlantis. AND Atlantis sold off the RM NASCAR tooling to Salvinos.....more than you ever wanted to know!!!

"Changes" might be more accurate than "improvements & corrections"!

I agree to 'Changes'. The conversion of the 84 Pontiac to a 2+2 is OK....why they altered the body rather than clone it is very odd.....the Monogram body was perfect.
