(PICS) Revell 'Composite' 1970 Opel Commodore GS/E

A few years ago, Revell of Germany tested the market with these composite (plasic) 1/18 OPELs in a few different colors. I guess they weren't very successful because they didn't, to my knowledge, make any more in this material.
I do, however, think they were pretty cool and they were, for a while, quite inexpensive.

Not what I collect, but a composite model with opening features is always neat.

Jeff, I had an Autoart Aston Martin composite with 4 opening features. The quality was fantastic. The openings gaps were incredibly tight. And the same on their C7 vette.
