Those look great Fred. I never knew they did that with these kits. Wonder if they used all of them in the series.
For a while there I thought maybe you ran out of green paint. ;D A perfect color choice on the Willys.

[shadow=pink,left,300]Man, your busy as a bee Fred! Great job on those! They remind me of the old Tom Daniel's snap kits with the wrinkled slicks.[/shadow]

I've never seen the Marvel versions either ... nice job! I put together a couple of the PL 'regular' ones ... man, a lot of those parts have a SUPER tight fit! You'll ruin your thumb snapping some of those parts together!

I'm suprised nobody asked Fred but I'm going to! What store did you find them on discount? Let us know so maybe some of us can get a few. The original issue stuff is getting tougher to come by. To answer Charlie's question, I don't think they did all of them. In fact, I'm pretty sure the Bad Boy wasn't used. I'm glad I got to see that Candy Lime Green used on something, I just got a can and man am I glad I did! That color looks outstanding! A.J. Couple weeks ago I was walking around one of the malls and found some Marvel Machines models |

Hey guys thanks for the kind words!!!.............To answer your question A.J. I found these in a store called All Star Collectables. I do not know if this is a chain or privately owned store....it was in a shopping mall.
They did not have the chevy there and I took what they had left. I am watching that one on ebay with the six cars....But I am only really interested in the chevy..........................Fred

nope, never heard of that one Fred but thank you for passing on the info. I'll have to keep it in mind. I remember seeing them on the shelves at Wallyworld but never really thought much more about them. I know I've came across a few other guys that stripped them and redone them but not often.
