    I think AMT hit a home run with this kit. I’ll get one not because I’m a Charger fan, it’s Just a cool car to me but because of the detail and quality of the kit. When I got back into building this past summer I had a bit of a learning curve fitting stuff together that was made from 30, 40 and 50 year old molds. With the new tooling on this one it looks like it will go together like a breeze. I think a Charger in that blue would look great. Looking forward to see what you do with it.

    • @ScaleModelExperiment
      @ScaleModelExperiment  2 года назад

      Thanks for watching Antithesis! I build a lot of high quality Japanese kits for that exact reason. They make building a pleasurable pastime. Keep building and tackle those old kits again later. With new tricks you can make any kit look awesome. I appreciate your support 👍

    Looks awesome. So cool you got an advance copy and this is a great look into this new kit. When you showed the body I thought to myself that they took a page out of aoshima's book and made it so they could release many different versions with different body kits and bumpers but seems the sprue layouts are not quite right for that. Could be wrong, maybe just different front and rear parts could be done bud side skirts are on a combines sprue. Anyway, go red my friend. You are building history here. Hehe.
