I like the new version of the 62 Pontiac especially the 3 in 1 and double especially the 8 lug wheels. These are the Holy Grail of Pontiac wheels and it's great to be able to put them on a model(the only way most of us can afford to have them LoL). I was very impressed with the drag and custom 62 Catalina kits back when they first were out, I have a radical custom build on one in progress.
I think that was our April Fools at the beginning. The stock version of the Catalina will be good. - So some new parts as well as all the custom parts included from the first release from RC2 back in about 1999-2003 era.
Was gunna pick up the 2003 Silverado set but resellers got to them first and are on eBay for $30-40 bucks 😂. Taking a massive break from collecting now. It’s ridiculous lately
The eBay sellers have gone mad. The prices for basic, common Johnny Lightning cars are comical. Sorry, I’m not paying $50+ for an old plastic chassis Forever 64 car. Keep it bro ✌🏼
@@Jtels85 that’s my thing I own real project vehicles aside from my company and personal vehicles . For that money I’ll throw real parts at them . Hell I used to buy chases for 20-25 bucks . And they want that for a truck that’s not even limited in production and the casting will be used 10 times over . I’ll pass
@@Donmud I completely agree with you. I’ve been seeing the ‘87 Monte Carlo SS’s that came with the tin a couple of years back going for upwards of $75 now. I bought one of each at the time at must’ve passed up a half a dozen more at different Meijer stores in Ohio and Indiana. I could have made a fortune, but I’m the kind of collector who likes to leave one for the next guy. Unfortunately, that next guy is probably going to sell it on eBay.
@@Jtels85 I have the black one and need the white. I was shocked when I went back to get the white and seen it around $55. To each their own but I was more suprised that people are wild enough to buy them at that price
I agree with kellycoons, with the popularity of the 70's "muscle" cars, that 74 GTO would be a great 1/25th scale addition. Not to mention how many different Venturas you could get out of it. Even the rebodied 75 to 77 MPC Ventura kits. And how about, if molds are still possible, bringing back the 77-78 Volare. Maybe with an Aspen option. The Volare Roadrunner kit was a great kit for 77. Maybe even an Aspen R/T / Super Coupe. Just some decals and different rear side window slats.
Gulf Kenworth hauling the new 1960 Ford "Gulf" Pickup with trailer hauling the 1953 Gulf Ford hauling it's trailer with the Gulf Tanker Trailer! That's a big haul!
I love the updates and I have a suggestion. When you show cars with opening hoods & doors, it would be great to see one loose and open it up! Thank you!
Drew was spot on ..😄...also we had a good chat when he dropped by our vendor set up at the Michigan show by Detroit Area Auto Modelers. Great products for April.
Great "Intro" Chad!😊 Thanks again for the interview with Hpiguys workshop that was great! More please! I know you get a lot of requests for new or reissued models but thought I'd throw a couple your way too! Would love to see the 68-69 impalas. This would fill a gap between the 67 and 70 you already have! Also some modified reissues of the 72 Blazer back to it's original 70 version! The 68 elcamino could be updated to a 69 without to much work, and the 78 Dodge pickups could be backdated to the earlier 72-77 versions! I would also like for you to consider doing the "Mustang" we see in your "intro" to these videos! 😊👍
I posted this last month, and I would like to reiterate...A good chunk of AMTs mid 1960s line of cars were butchered to make modified stock cars. I'd like to see the '65 Fairlane, 66 Buick Special, and 65 Olds 88 tooling restored and the original kits offered again. And while you're at it, could you please convert the 66 Hemi Under Glass back to a 3 in 1 Barracuda Formula S? I don't think we've had them issued since 1966. I will buy them all. Probably multiples... And please keep up the great work you are already doing! I loves me the 1960 Ford F100 I just got.
The Kenworth looks like a nice kit. The other releases are pretty cool as well. This is an incredible time to be modeler. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing.
I'd love to see a re-issue of the 1972, 1973, and 1974 Dodge Charger. Bonus would be a 2 in 1 kit for the standard and Rallye trim packages with decals.
Chad found and stole the bttf machine and took us right back to his past. Hehe. Got to add like I always do hope to see some more model years of the f series pickups like the 67-72, 80-86, 92-96, 2021-now. With all the configurations and trims in Diecast 1:64 premium autoworld, model kits, 1:18 diecast. Thanks round2 keep rocking it 😃.
Just got the Boss Nova from my local hobby shop still sealed. Glad I did'nt pay over 30 bucks for it! LOL! Hope you guys shortend the rear axle on the Pontiac so the rear tires fit inside the wheel wells on the drag racing version.
I wish you guys would take the mack cruiseliner cabover kit An check with mack archives of their f700 series cabover from the 70's. I love mack trucks and built all your mack kits. Would like to see a mack f700 cabover to build before I die.
I agree it would be great to see some new model year trucks. Would like to see a freightliner Cascadia an a peterbuilt 389 long nose in 1/24 scale. My mack f700 idea an the r-series conventional ,the pete 352 an kw k100 aerodyne would look awesome in a 1/24 scale. Maybe possible?
I found a few models from AW 2024 Release 1 last week. Awesome to see Auto World back at Target. Both releases of 2023 Release 4, and 2023 Release 3B never landed at Targets and Walmarts, at least in my area. Any inisight as to what happened with their distribution?
I still am waiting for the Meyers Tow'd (preferably in green) the George Barris Thunder Charger from the movie Thunder Alley, and the 1971 Ford Torino Cobra with the NASCAR option. NONE of these was reissued after their initial release and I think they would all be good sellers!
Dream List 1:25 #1. 1969 Hurst/Olds Street Outlaw type Car #2. 1962 Oldsmobile Starfire 394ci #3. 1972 Plymouth Duster 340 #4. Street Outlaws Model Line. It would be awesome to have kits based off of the street outlaws gang. And have other car based off of them like a STREET OUTLAW version of a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere/ Christine car. Like if you agree 👍
I love to see, how many cool kits are beeing reissued :) Looking forward to see the 1980s Firebirds someday. Or every issue of the earlier Firebirds. My wishlist is huge of the old kits.
Would love to see plastic models of these funny car diecasts you're releasing. Especially John Force and Robert Hight. The older ones are good but It's for some modern day Drag Racing models. I do realize there's licencing involved and the John Force diecast does not have the Peak Logo on the side of it. The other ones do
What in the twilight Zone is going on hahaha 😂 🤷🏼🤔🤣. Very cool and I can’t wait for Marty’s Back to the future version of that Toyota Truck since it was an 1985 as well . 🔥🤘🏻💀🤘🏻🔥
I recently watched Chris' video (hpiguys workshop) where he visited your place. He was saying you all listen to/read the comments; I commented this on that video of his and thought to also comment it on here too. I'd love to see the General Lee snap kits re-issued; I love all their 1969 Charger snap kits! I did the coke one as a General Lee! Also built the General Lee snap kit. Would also love to see the GMC 1983 Vandura Van (The A-Team). (Almost forgot, would love the see the '92 Ford Model B in 1/25 or 1/24 scale; with white wall tire option, and optional hood [or no hood is fine].) Not sure if you all could do this one, but a 4 door 1997 Pontiac Sunfire would be nice (would go along with the '97 Viper and '97 Mustang AMT kits).
you drop alot of 70 chevelle's on the market ...you also had alot of cool 72 chevelles back in the day Red Alert any others , begging for a re-pop of the 72 chevelle please
Chad, WOW, where did you find the fountain of youth?? Sadly it looks like the magic water does not last very long 😂🤣😂 Nice little April Fools Intro 😊 Very Nice re pop of the Kenworth K123 Cabover. This tractor will look great with the AMT Fruehauf Gulf Tanker. The "Kool Kats at Round 2" do it again. Thank you all for another great "Big Rig" kit. Cheers, Rich S. P.S. Simply loved the Hpiguys video at the Round2 head quarters. There are so many "must have" AMT Big Rig Kits you guys have, but 2 on my list are the BJ& The Bear KW Aerodyne Cabover and the Movin' On Kenworth K925 Conventional. I'd love to see those kits re-released.
1961 - 71 Dodge 100-300 PIckups & Power Wagons Please! The best part is that you could do the entire run with only minimal front end and hood changes. A great way to maximize your tooling!
I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. Chad looks so skinny, then two second later, chad is back! I'm really looking forward to that Toyota Hilux/pickup. Unfortunately I'm sure I won't find that in stores since it's going to be a very popular model 😢.
I want to see a GM Square Body long box, both as Chevy’s and GMC’s. I’d like to see them I 1/25, 1/64, & in HO scales. I’d like to see you bring back the ‘84 Dodge Daytona. How about a ‘82 Dodge Charger, but with the four headlights that the Daytona had. I’d also like to see the ‘94 to ‘02 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 kits come back, but as a full detail kit and make a club cab this time around, both as a short and long boxes. How about doing a ‘03 to ‘05 Dodge Ram 2500 that has both the Hemi and the Cummins. Along with a ‘81 to ‘93 Dodge Ram 250/350 with the 360 V8 and the Cummins. Have the option of having the options to make it a ‘81 to ‘85, ‘86 to ‘90, or ‘91 to ‘93. I think you should bring back more of the ‘88 to ‘98 GM trucks, but also include a 4x4 option in all of them, or do a 4x4 parts pack for them.
Agreed on the need for a 73-87 Chevy/GMC long bed pickup. Lots of these trucks in the real world, and their owners would love to build models of them! And the 4x4 parts for the OBS/GMT 400 trucks (88-98) are definitely needed too. Here again, lots of the real ones out there, that need replication in scale.
I'd like to see some 1/25 scale military vehicles. I know that back in the 1960's one of the manufacturers of model kits had a 5 ton military wrecker kit that I had built. If you need any ideas for military vehicles I can probably help you out. Would also like to see some some 40's, 50's and 60's dodge trucks, especially the power wagons.
I can’t wait to get my hands on the Dodge Warlock. I’m going to use it to convert the ‘77/‘78, Dodge D100 into a ‘81 to ‘85 Dodge W250/W350 4x4 crew cab long box.
Hey Chad can't wait for the 2024 nhra diecast funny cars to be released in August/September. Any news on nhra funny car model kits for 2024? Let me know thanks Don

I don't know if this is the right place for this question but.. are you going to make any Wheel sets for the 1:64 Auto World cars.. Im already modifying mine
