Yep, I remember that kit too! It was a Revell. I always wanted one...
... but for some reason, I never had the model.

THAT'S IT!!!! Man I'd like to have a pro build one of these for me if the kit could be found!
These old eyes and fingers just aren't up for the task anymore...(sigh)

Resin Chump
Three quarters of my collection is high end resin and only CMC can match the detail and paint of BBR, MR and Tecnomodel. CMC prices match most resin models and the variety is much smaller for my tastes.
Yes, having details under the hood and boot is great but I bought my models to display and I like realistic door gaps and proportions that are correct more than fingermarks on parts that don't always fit right.
I will bet that other "chumps" might feel the same way.
Resin and Diecast Argument.
This argument about referencing 1:18 diecast to the real thing is really weak.
