Love the Dodge Dart Short Track Car 🏁🏁 It's a GREAT time to be a Modeler!!! 🤜🤛🙂
Nice pickup and Riviera !
Hey one day there should be an all new tool for a 70s Cabover
(Diamond Reo, White Road Commander, Ford 9000, etc) just saying 😇👍🏼
I’ve been modelling for 60 years. How about releasing more 1/25 plastic scale car kits from the 1970’s to today’s models. Tired of the same stuff I built 50 years ago. If you want to keep the hobby going and get new kids into it you need current models and the prices need to come down. By the time you buy the kit, paints and glue, etc you’re spending $50 ($70 here in Canada) what kid can afford that. I can’t even afford that anymore.
I got back into the hobby around 6 years ago. I basically build 1/25 cars. I probably built around 60 and you're right on average about 40 to 50 bucks. Definitely not a cheap hobby. I find that many of these kits are the same kits with a few extra parts and new decals.
Preach!!!!!!
I second that the price is getting ridiculous! There's no way those kits are costing more than $5 to produce these days, or much less.
@@JohnC-or7lnI started building at age 5. 48 years later I'm still building, but I refuse to buy any of these new kids at their ridiculous new prices. I wait for clearing deals and sales and garage sales - swap meets... These new people at the new company have new objectives - $$$
Right. Especially when they're using old molds. They don't even bother to clean em up. Still have that gross flash we took off when we were kids@@garytanck
Thanks again for doing these videos. Would love to see the rerelease of MPC pro stock racers of the early 70s.
im waiting patiently for that 71 chevelle ss to come later this year
Nice stuff...really like too see some new drag car stuff...
I'm not giving up! I still would like to see reissues of the Barris Thunder Charger from the movie Thunder Alley with decals for both the movie version and post- movie version, the Meyers Tow'd and 1971 Torino Cobra with the NASCAR parts. None of those models were reissued after their initial release! Why? I would also like to see the 1960 Chevy Bel Air (?) station wagon Craftsman series kit reissued. Thank you!
I've seen a few of the " old " dart kits. The dart kit can't be popular if I've seen the old ones. I'd like to see some other Dodge,Plymouth Fargo, pickup truck kits or car. Like 30-70's. Thanks
Glad to see the Dart Kit Car re-released!
Since you are wearing a Blues Brothers t-shirt, when can we expect a 1/24th scale 1974 Dodge Monaco sedan aka the Bluesmobile. I so want to build so many stock and demo versions.
Totally agree.
It's been said for decades now, that last-generation C-body Monaco/Royal Monaco would be a huge hit, especially if done for multiple versions. Perhaps someday someone will listen.
I’m in the UK (Scotland) and last year I went to their Autoworld website and used the ‘contact us’ section at the bottom to ask why there was no 1/25 Bluesmobile Monaco kit. I did get a response from a customer agent who said they were aware many people were wanting this and my email would be passed on to a manager-perhaps if they received more emails via their website they may take more notice as I don’t think they look at these comments as much now.
As a complete big rig truck nut I have enjoyed seeing your company re-released old kits I grew up with but could you bring out some newer Mack, Kenworth or Peterbilt models
Got to say I miss the old opening sequence but I guess you decided to so a revamp. Thanks for the product update.
Would love to see the Corvette Summer car as a die-cast....that and the black Trans Am villain car! I think that would be a hit!!
Love the awesome creativity at the beginning of this showcase 😮. Nice change. Good job creation crew. Thanks Chad 🤙 keep rocking it. Hope to see more old Ford pickup models 67-72, 80-86, 92-96 in all the configurations diecast Premium AW. Thanks, crew, at Round2
I would love to see the MPC Dick Landy Dodge Challenger Pro Stocker 1/25 KIT Being Re-released 🤔🤔🤔 ... cause there going for 350$ to 400$ on Ebay, it's just to crazy🙄🙄🙄 !! Really Hope that KIT will come back out...🤞🤞🤞
I’m a Mopar guy but I’m not into race cars. But I’m sure lots of people will enjoy the Dart. How about bringing back the MPC 71 cuda in 1/25 scale!! Or a 71 Challenger RT!
Everything you guys come out with shows how much you care about keeping this hobby going! Thank you
While I don't collect Johnny Lightning military, I think you guys hit a home run with this series 👍
STILL WAITING FOR MORE JUNIOR CRAFTSMAN SERIES! HOW ABOUT A 1960 CHEVROLET STATION WAGON?
I live about 40 miles from Tuskegee. It's cool that y'all did a plane in their honor!! Plus the Commodores were from there also
She's a brick house, she's mighty , mighty letting it all hang out!!!😅
I've been foaming at the mouth for that firebird lmao
Good 2nd gens are rare and it's even rarer to see one that isn't a TA
That 66 Rivi & 60 Pickup looks cool
I only have one 1/18 Scale in my case and that 🐦 looks it might need to be added to my case too
The WWII releases are kind of cool. I might get a couple of those. Wouldn't object too loudly to another Riv, either.
That 1/18 Firebird is so freaking good
Cool weathering on the military vehicles.
👌😎👍Your WW2 Vehicles and Aircraft are very cool indeed, You should also make some British and German vehicles and Aircraft as well to go with them!.
I can’t wait for that ‘60 Apache! Could you guys consider bringing back the 1974 Pontiac Firebird? Thanks for all you do guys!!
They would need to retool the MPC body and interior. Every year that the Auto manufacturers changed the body style the model manufacturers did as well. So currently the only reason there is the 1978 and 1979 firebird kit is there body panels were very close to each other with the nose and rear bumpers. This is why the 70-76 MPC firebird kit's are $200 plus online when you can find them is because of the changes over the year's. Hopefully this information helps
That Dart kit car is sweet.
I've built that Riviera back in the Ertl days. Love that kit.
You still need to do a 73 Chevelle SS though.
We need some of these cars in 1/87 scale. Be nice to get a Plymouth Duster or a Chevy Nova.
That Johnny Lightning WWII set is very nice!
A great day in the world when Round 2 has its new releases.
I agree Pete
67 Galaxy model kit already in ragtop and hardtop!!!!!!!!!
Nice looking model kits. Those should sell well. Thanks for sharing.
You need to come out with the '71,'72,and '73 Boat tail Riviera, with the option of bench or bucket,seats center console with a 8- track player, and a option to create the Landau top.
My wife had a '72, they were fun to drive too.
Awesome hat and an awesome t-shirt.. cheers😊
DUDE, I had a '79 formula. 400 4spd... it's so cool that y'all did a formula. . And not another T/A. I do love the T/A"s, but there is millions and millions of them
I really wish that the custom kits also came with the parts to build a full stock version, I have left a number of these kits on the shelf in the shop because they cannot be built stock.
You should do a long box GM Square Body in 1/25, 1/64, & 1/87 scales. You should also to the ‘81 to ‘93 Dodge truck 4x4 with all three cabs. Standard, Club Cab, and Crew Cabs. I’m wanting to get two of your Dodge Warlock and convert it to a crew cab long box from ‘81 to ‘85.
The 73 through 87 square body 4x4 long bed would be a great kit
That would require them to spend money on tooling. Something they don't seem to like to do these day's.!! They will just keep reaching into the archives/ re releasing the same car's over and over again. I am surprised we haven't seen the 49 merc come back out for the millionth time. Oh when they do they will add white wall tires to the kit and new decals with vintage box art.
Also the 1965 Ford Fairlane and the 1970 GTO both in stock trim. Not sure when they were last released as stock rather than 'stock cars', but they would be nice additions. All of these were AMT releases.
Grateful for the new models
Still waiting for the Beverley Hillbillies truck 😊
How about a JL "Beverly Hillbillies" truck?!!!!
@@davidparker8221 ...Awesome ,yes.
@@davidparker8221...okay yeah. Best day ever. Happy 4th 2024
1921 Oldsmobile 43-A Roadster ✔️ 2 versions in show Regular & Hot Rod version. They raced in a episode. 👀 🏁
@@davidcrawford219 Granny's Moonshine Express!
Very cool stuff. I would love to see some older dodge vans from the mid 70s
I've got all the versions of the Sherman tanks going back to the initial releases. Keep them coming !!
Cool kits for sure like that Chevy Apache ,sure would love to see that Javelin make a come back
thanks for all the cool kits.
Love the Kustom Kruzers line, as a massive hot rod and custom car guy I really dig it.
The Military set is awesome and love the Firebird and Riviera
Very nice kits. Interested in the Kustom Kruisers series and the Dart
Another good month, thanks
Wish amt would do the 63 c10 pickup again
I love that Dodge Dart short track car. I have two of those from previous issues. Definitely gonna add this one. The pickup is sweet. Probably gonna have to add that one too. lol. Bruce in Wv!!!
I love the military release from Johny Lightning
When will you be bringing out more big rigs
Thanks for the preview! Great looking kits. Looking forward to future releases in Kustom series. Dart has a lot of possibilities. Have a safe Fourth 🧨
Thank you AMT/Round 2!!! I'm really excited about the Dodge Dart round track late model and the Buick Riviera. I'll be ordering one or two of each. Thanks again!
Me too!!
Great video Chad!
I am so so glad to see the Dodge Dart racecar come back. As a WWII history buff I am very impressed with the WWII diecasts.
I'm glad to see a company trying to keep history alive like this. 😁
Can't wait to buid the Riviera. Any chance on the 1969 Chevrolet Impala getting re-issued?
1961 - 71 Dodge Power Wagons & pickups please!
Would love to see more of the OLDER kits like the 60 & the other ford pickup re-released & maybe not as much re-releasing kits from a month or 2 back. Just my opinion
66 Imperial??!!
I like the Apache truck the custom series can’t wait to see what else you guys should come up with
I honestly wish you could have produced the military releases in TRUE 1/64 scale.
Thank you just the same!
Thank you for doing the marlin.
Also, I forgot to ask, any plans for a release of 1:64 "The car" from the 1978 horror movie? We have Christine. Be nice to give it a companion.
As a Dodge guy , i am very excited for the Dart...... i will buy 10 kits ..
Awesome! Love the short track dart and buick riviera 😎👍🏻.
Cool Dart Stock Car kit!!
Hello. Big rig modeller myself. I would like to see a reissue of the "infamous" Mack junkyard dog. Any chance of that?
Where are the slot cars?!!!!
We slowed some things down to rework some product lines and make some improvements for future releases. Stay tuned, we got slot cars coming soon and we will be sure to keep you guys in the loop!
That Dart and Riviera are must haves, still waiting for an MPC Mustang II kit.........................................................................
Cool 60 Apache pickup kit...
I'm going to say it every time... NEW MODEL YEAR TRUCKS !!!! PLEASE !!!
Great video
Very happy to see some Rivieras brought out. Keep going with a series of those.
On the other hand, disappointed that the '60 Chevy pickup only has custom parts, and not the factory stock parts. When the bodies are no different for a model between stock and custom versions, all the parts should be included in the kit, so builders can build the kit the way they want to.
(I only build kits that replicate factory stock models, so I won't be buying this custom.)
Cool WW II 1/64s!!
Really enjoy the videos & seeing the new releases, but I miss the Mustang Mach1 intro, with the package being taken inside 😔
If history is any guide, the Sherman never “wrought destruction” on much German armor…the Sherman’s strength was its numbers and usually took 10 Sherman’s to take out a Tiger/Panther
Cool 66 Riviera GS kit..
Is Round2 making Racing Champions 1/64 (or 3.25") diecast anymore? Or is the Racing Champions brand discontinued?
I would like to see the 1958 Ford Fairlane convertible. It has not been released since the 58 annual and think people would like to see it.
Thanks, Oprah...
Luv that t-shirt
When will you guys re-release the 59 and 60 Chevy Impala model kits the ones for sale online are ridiculous price I really would like to see a re-release of those as well as the 57 and 56 Chevy Nomad
When will you be releasing those 1/24 scale 2024 NHRA diecast? I was told that the on line website preorders will be available one month before the actual release month. So are we looking at August to be released in September? Let me know thanks
Would love to see the 1973 Plymouth Duster Customizing kit release. That kit hasn’t been released since 1973. Prices of the original kits are out of sight.
I would love to see AW go a bit more unique with its own releases not in the other lines, and JL release the Grand Prix and Cutlass to match those Monte Carlos you brought out last year.
Hey. How soon before you rerelease the Barracuda Modified Stocker?? I've been wanting one but don't want to pay eBay prices.
Need that formula
I like the military airplanes . Small versions.
Perhaps you could repop the 1/20 mpc highjacker van.
The 1:18 american muscles are cool, but I’d really like to see you guys bring back more 1:18 silver screen cars
Great video, excellent choice of a tee shirt.
Have you ever considered doing a vintage police car series as like a 1 adam 12 or a Hawaii 5 o car or a California highway patrol Buick?
I might need to add the 66 riviera to the stash
JL Military 2018 release 1 had that exact same p40 with the exact same paint scheme, thought we wouldn't catch that? 😂😂😂
Nice model kit review Chad!
Ive been hoping for a 69 Impala reissue. 66 riv i can find easily online to buy, 69 impala not so much.
I like the new intro! Exciting new products for July!!! 😎👍
We want a early 70s chevrolet or gmc truck reissue!
"All new 67-72" Chevrolet and GMC pickups for me too! As well as the first gen ,(73-80), square bodies!
