September 2023 Round 2 Product Spotlight

[@209Stretch]

We need a mpc ‘68 impala convertible & mpc ‘71 Chevy impala/caprice please.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Oh yea...... A '64 Dodge & Semi kits, sure is a good time to be a modeler!!!😊👍

[@MasteringTheModel]

It sure is a good time, Tim!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Oh yeah!!

[@richardlee1092]

That’s right Tim!!

[@corvairjim1]

They missed a sure thing on the '64 Dodge by not including a Hemi for a drag racing version. You know, a "Brand new, shiny red Super Stock Dodge" for that "Little Old Lady From Pasadena"...

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

True!!!!! @@corvairjim1

[@davematthews2317]

Auto World is bringing back slot cars in a big way. The deluxe pit kits are fantastic and the dragsters look awesome!

[@leerilea1709]

Would love to see the Movin' On Kenworth reissued

[@OMEGATECH]

Me Too!!👍

[@mrcschubbyboymodels2503]

B J and the Bear truck also

[@thebrinx9632]

I too, would love to see that (as mentioned also, the BJ and the Bear rig). I'll also go out on a limb and say, I would also buy the (very inaccurate) Convoy/rubber Duck mack...if only just for the decals and extra parts. @Round2foryou

[@garysprandel1817]

The original KW is still in production or at least still available and the decals are out in after market. Picked the kit up with the intention of building it as the Movin On KW again a lot better than I did as a 13 year old kid but ended up building it as Snowman.

[@mrcschubbyboymodels2503]

I wanna see a new release for the 71 to 75 chevy full size wagons? Oldsmobile Vista cruiser wagons?

[@urbanurchin5930]

Yes ! Vista Cruiser wagon would be cool ! Also, would love to see a 1975 / 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix ..... no company has ever produced a stock version.

[@corvairjim1]

Why not the '76 wagon, too? All six years were virtually identical, not just through 1975. That Vista Cruiser sounds great! I would love to see some more station wagon models.

[@jamesthompson8008]

Great items ROUND2!! Glad to see the Granny's hotrod - THANK YOU! Also glad to see the 69 Grand Prix in 1:18 - loads of possibilities in that one. I also want to say thanks for the alternative decal set in the IH 4300, I remember that color scheme when I was a kid(on the 1:1 trucks).

[@thebeardedguyjefflawless5887]

It would be awesome if you all would do the 1966 Skylark factory stock.......just a thought........thank you

[@portland-182]

The white bottom of the box on the AMT Dodge 330 looks very much better than the standard beige finish that is on the bottom of the other automotive kits.

[@darylanderson9268]

Need that 66 skyward as a regular kit

[@laurenciozabala4296]

As usual, all of them are great kits, diecasts and slot cars. I'm stillwaiting on the mpc 69 impala model kit.

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Cool 😎 Granny's Hot Rod kit!!

[@richardlee1092]

Great stuff on the way! The Sprite truck, grannies hot rod, Chevy titan , Dodge great kits are coming. Thank YOU; for releasing these kits! Great work Round2!!!!

[@bobbybutler4199]

Would sure LOVE to see Granny's Hot Rod in diecast form :) ! Classic Barris !! THANKS AGAIN !!!

[@mitchgawlik1175]

Good idea. Bring out a die cast edition and release an interesting plastic kit instead.

[@modelermark172]

I'm definitely interested in that reissue of Granny's Hot Rod. This kit has a lot of potential for vintage builds in its 'jalopy' version; both as shiny Roaring 20's Classics as well as Depression-era Workhorses. Ironically, when this kit first came out in the early 1960's as a tie-in to "The Beverly Hillbillies" TV show, the finishing techniques used by model builders at the time had not "caught up" with this kit's intended 'stock' look as a weathered beater. Basic techniques like washes, dry brushing, and simulating rust patina were another decade away, and were first developed by Armor Modelers like Sheperd Paine, (by way of Railroad Modelers,) as most Car Modelers at the time aimed for the cleanest, shiniest finish possible. Thanks for reissuing this, Round 2!

[@urbanurchin5930]

Of course, anyone that was familiar with the T.V. show - knows that Granny never drove a vehicle. The hot rod version was done-up by Jethro in one episode. The advance in supplies and techniques by modelers in the past 20 years will indeed lend itself to very interesting creations of the old-style version while the customizing parts for the hot rod will be a nice addition to anyone's parts box !

[@chrislongbeard]

Need to do the slant 6 as a parts pack.

[@Trendsetta68]

Yeeeesssss!!!

[@johnstrick9317]

The Beverly Hillbillies truck with the Barris custom parts, put me down for a few !

[@chassegallerie2910]

The '71 Demon was supposed to be a 3rd quarter release. 3rd quarter, that's July, August and September. Was it delayed yet again? It's been like what? Ten years we've been promised a Demon? Don't wanna be mean or anything, I'm just really looking forward to add two of that kit to my stash!

[@the00slender23]

I'm glad someone said something. I second what he said.

[@darylanderson9268]

Need to see a 1970 to 74 challenger hardtop mpc

[@CycolacFan]

‘Stock’ Aston Martin still has the bulletproof shield in the back… 🙂

[@andrewcrane2786]

Those pick up trucks are pretty cool i wouldn't mind getting them

[@chriscallen6897]

I’m excited about the big rigs and trailers!! 😃

[@novadiecastman5251]

Thanks for another great month of diecast , slot cars & models !!!

[@RaysBlueBasementWorkshop]

I wish they would sell the tanker decal sheets separately.

[@michaelcooke2559]

Nice new model kits on the way. I really like the Sprite livery. A Diet Coke livery would be awesome. Also a late ‘70’s Chevrolet Blazer would be awesome too. Thanks for sharing.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

The Bantam blast seems pretty cool! loved to get my hands on that one to build! ;) Oh sweet, you guys have the gulf oil license?! AWESOME!!!!

[@MasteringTheModel]

That car does look cool, wouldn't mind having one myself... or maybe a half dozen.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

@@MasteringTheModel I wonder if there are cool aftermarket decals for it? 🤔

[@MasteringTheModel]

@@BGsModelWorkshop You and I both know someone will make some if there are none.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

@@MasteringTheModel agreed!!

[@MasteringTheModel]

I have to admit, those Sprite decals do look really refreshing.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

😁😉

[@michaelbrown7661]

I say it every time but I can't help it. NEW MODEL YEAR TRUCKS !!!!!!!

[@thebrinx9632]

Great stuff (as usual). thank you for the release of the AMT Alaskan Hauler Kenworth (I've purchased 3 so far and will most likely pick up 2 or 3 more...I love that there is NO CHROME in the kit....really makes assembly so much nicer!!!)

[@CycolacFan]

Next time the GMC Astro / Chevy Titan gets reissued please put the optional gas turbine engine back in.

[@IamGalvatron]

They just reissued the Turbine kit in a separate parts pack.

[@CycolacFan]

@@IamGalvatron yes so they obviously still have the tooling, but wouldn’t it be nice to have it included in the kit it originally came in?

[@IamGalvatron]

@@CycolacFan to get the decals to replicate the real Astro prototype with the turbine would be a nice idea.

[@goratgo1970]

@@IamGalvatron Got one to install in Pete 352 for their turbine attempt. Have the original kit waiting it's turn too.

[@martinkpierce]

Love seeing a farm themed release I'm a farmer in idaho so it's awesome.

[@bigeddie1231]

Awesome Model kits coming out very very cool sir thank you guys for all your hard work

[@johnnys.diecast]

Super nice new stuff. Definitely need some of the 1:64 scale trucks

[@thomasaustin316]

Just awesome…always look forward to seeing the monthly announcements…

[@martinkpierce]

Got me those AW set pre order already yay good to see them in the packaging. Thank for all you guys do thanks. Hope to see some more model years of the ford f series pickups. 2021-now, 80-86, 67-72, 92-96.

[@disneyfan7021]

Hi guys, just wanted to know if you could do more fire apparatus, rescues, and ambulances, in the 1/64 range. I don’t know if you guys have the rights to the licensing for Mack, American Lafrance, Ward Lafrance, Pierce, Ford, Seagrave, Bronco Skylift, E-One, Ferrara, KME, Rosenbauer, Spartan, Stuphen, are just some of the big manufacturers that make fire apparatus. I really think this would be an unbelievable product line if you guys could look into it please🙏😂 Well love your videos keep putting them out💪

[@martinkpierce]

The Ford Rangers rock glad I got them coming already

[@jaysonmcewen4056]

Stunning. I can't wait to get my hands on those 7 AW vehicles!

[@goratgo1970]

Ah, Great run on truck kits Thanks! MOST interesting that the Chevy Titan boxart has changed rear view mirrors from original issue square type! I will have to now display this new modified one with my original box. Guess the original chrome mold is gone?

[@flyingfortressrc1794]

More awesome stuff from round 2. I'd really like to build that 64 Dodge and the skylark stock car. 😁

[@deenjoan9938]

cool kits for sure like some older kits making there come back you guys do a great job but I would still like to see the Javelin make its comeback was a really cool kit

[@graham6649]

I would love to see more construction equipment kits. Excavators, Loaders etc.

[@Phantanos]

What about a Glow in the Dark version of: The Jolly Rodger Pirate car. Re- release that with a specteral image on the box.. Great for a Halloween edition.

[@Billy-rf8ms]

It's cool that round to coming out with this truck kits I wish they would come with the original tires

[@montielarge5942]

Seeing the 66 skylark modified made me think of 70 chevelle and 70 fastback mustang kits as well. Maybe coming?

[@pontiaccrest]

I’m going broke! Love the Pontiac’s and the rest too! A 1/64 Pontiac by AW or JL would be awesome!

[@Trendsetta68]

Wow, way to go Round2!!! I'm especially interested in the Dodge... and that Sprite version of the International is awesome !!! Thanks and GOD Bless !!! 😇👍🏼

[@DiecastMediaNetwork]

So stoked that the Cutlass is back in circulation. Great casting, although I'd love to see the same car get the true 1/64th Auto World treatment, and those retro graphics on the Cobra II and Ranger are 🔥🔥🔥

[@davidseibold420]

Defently going for them rangers!

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Awesome lineup Chad 😊 Have a great weekend guys.😂

[@jasongette3392]

Keep up the great work guys. I'm hoping you guys bring back 70/76 trans am and 74/77 camaros

[@tomlappin9657]

Great Stuff as always !!!!

[@ThomasSmith-fz6wq]

The Duel Peterbilt and the Plymouth valiant also!

[@soggytom]

Interesting about the 'Granny's Hot Rod' re-issue. I'm guessing licensing issues regarding the (unmentioned) TV show title, but not with George Barris, for a change. I recall him being a hard nut to crack when alive. Good to see that kit back, with both cars still in the kit!

[@pascualcontiniello2881]

Very good.

[@rogerstickle5935]

Hi I would like to see model truck kits with towdolls for 1/24 1/25 scale kits

[@truckman374]

Nice 02 silverados with the tow dolly, Wondering when are we going to see some Cat Eye's come out?

[@johndean2110]

Granny's hot rod. 👍 been waiting for that.😊 Any rat fink kit is way cool.

[@roeldiecast2341]

Nice casting pickup truck🥰🥰

[@seanh2390]

great work round 2!

[@PlasticImaginationWorkshop]

Some really nice stuff there. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend. -David

[@shiftintohigh5564]

Batmobile in repair👍👍😎🇺🇸 El Camino!

[@Championdjk]

Hmm I think my favorite is that Copper Ranger… overall a stellar month for 1/64

[@romebihh5779]

Would like to see some boats in 1/24scale or a re release of some of the boat team kits

[@trainglen22]

When will the 1974 Pontiac GTO be released?? Also, you keep forgetting about the classic metal works 1/87. We could use a 1976 Mustang II hatchback or a Oldsmobile Cutlass supreme.

[@ricobobe]

I'm all in for the JL Freestyle Series! BMX for life! Also glad to see Surf Rods make their return.👊❤

[@CharlieLarkin75]

I would be very happy to see the Grand Prix as a future subject of kit re-creation, as the originals are becoming very, very, expensive. Same for the Skylark, back to stock and correcting that slightly asymmetrical quarter panel. Adding a 1973-'77 Cutlass and boattail Riv into the 1/25 plastic mix would be welcome, too.

[@stevencalvey6318]

We need some station wagons

[@modelrestorations]

Such coolness!!!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Cool 😎 Chevy Titan kit!!

[@TheModelingHermit]

You absolutely made my day. I've been waiting for a long time to see the Chevy Titan return, as well as both of those trailers. Thanks for putting them in the original artwork. I would love to see the Ford LNT 8000 tractor in the red truck artwork make a comeback as well as the basic Ford LN dumptruck in the original artwork. Is there someplace that we can give suggestions where they will actually be seen and acted upon?

[@travisrieger4941]

MUST HAVE. Here, take my money...

[@goforitpainting]

Cool

[@Merylstreep1949]

I think you should offer a model kit and die-cast subscription program.....I would definitely sign up if one became available ❤

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Cool 😎 64 Dodge 330 kit!!

[@paulm.newitt3246]

AWESOME new items!! Kewl!!!

[@user-fc6vu5cu3t]

Can you reissue the bj and the bear semi truck and how about the 1/32 scale snapfit semi trucks

[@oldskolacura9798]

I wouldn't mind the A team van

[@lostonwallace1396]

Would kill for a '53 Dodge pick-up truck model kit or 1:64 scale vehicle.

[@jonathanalaskey6310]

They should make more truck model kits with an off-road or trophy truck variant to make with a stock truck, like what they do with the cars and their drag variant or racing variant.

[@mx472000]

Did you guys work out the fitting issues the tanker had in the past? The tanker's support arms never seem to match the tanker itself.

[@glennhales7302]

WE NEED DRIVERS FOR OUR CARS AND TRUCKS!! PLEASE GIVE US SOME PEOPLE FOR OUR BUILDS!!!

[@v8cool231]

Lookslike you've sorted the roof out for the 1/18 Dodge charger. I've got the R/t version and the roof really lets it down. The chrome strip along the side window is wavey, the windshield looks to low and almost squashed to the point, and you can see a slight hump in the roof where its starts to slope down at the front.

[@garyparker2969]

STILL BEGGING FOR A 1964 CHEVY CHEVELLE MALIBU SS PPPLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSEEE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@goratgo1970]

I'd rather Revell release one so it has accurate details.

[@jonoskowski5545]

Thank you for what you do. I’m thankful that you are producing and improving the kits from my youth. I can’t find some of the kits that I built when I was a kid and I love that you are producing these kits again. Do you offer kits for the 1/64 scale die cast cars and trucks? A few of my friends who see my work ask me to build a 1/64 scale die cast of their cars for them. I usually find a complete die cast car, dissemble it, paint and detail it, and build it for them.

[@jamesschultz7550]

I hate to say this, but it looks like , on the DB6., there seems to be one item left on the car from 007. It looks like the bullet shield, was left in the back. That stop them from looking great. I just wish I could find the different diecasts easier.

[@jeffholt9437]

Hopefully you'll have some updates (test shots?) of your UFO kits at the NY toy fair?

[@JS-1983]

I really want to see and have model kit of GMC Brigadier Chevy Bruin... Or older GMC/Chevy 9500

[@joelakers410]

Bring back 83-84 coupe cutlass

[@liamfirebird6922]

Awesome releases! Is the Gulf tanker chrome like the Sunoco tanker from a couple of years ago? I have the sunoco version and I'm thinking of grabbing the gulf as well, but I think I'm going to do it in a matte aluminum instead of chrome. I just picked up the GMC Titan cabover and it would go great with the gulf tanker

[@whoomill]

You guys gotta do some Tow n Gos towing a drag boat …….cmon man !!! 👍

[@buecar]

These are all amazing, still just waiting for the Subaru's to come you teased. One day :]

[@LasMiniAnormales]

Integra yes let's go

[@GoodbyeKamala2024]

I keep waiting and hoping you all will do some 1/24 diecast. I guess I'm hoping against all hope.😔😔

[@diecast_SkyCro-DSC]

Cool video bro 😊 Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷

[@twycediecast]

Big Country line is crazy appealing, Chad. Love the hobby exclusive Z; Classic Gold is ALWAYS money (stock) for my collection. Well done again. Good heavens that DB5 is beautiful. Love the red. And the Vette too…? It’s like I sent a wish list to you guys. Geeesh. RIP my wallet.

[@voodoofx1946]

Wow, nice car line up!

[@peloi111]

Bring out more George Barris stuff out! That stuff is insane

[@fuzzysniper]

The black and gold cobra looks like the very first car I ever bought. Where can I get one??

[@AntaresScaleworks]

When are those sweet, sweet 1/1400 Enterprise-D and USS Cerritos coming out?? Not to mention the SNW Enterprise! Give us the good stufffff! :D

[@waynehawkins9090]

Nice review! Have the original Gulf tanker.
