That is hideous, and the colors are terrible.

Thanks but no thanks. I have some Kess models which are fairly nice but this isn't one of them.

Doesn't seem too bad to me but Kess could learn something about thin whitewalls for 1960s vehicles.

Looks horrible as shown.  Hopefully they improve it.

To me the details look great, and Kess is still one of the few makers to choose pillared sedans. As for the color give it dog dish hubcaps and they've got a police interceptor.

However the basic body proportions are way off,  but in a very specific way. A 1:1 Fury appears much more elongated. These images make this model look exactly as if viewed from a convex [side-view type] mirror, or some such to cause this specific type of optical distortion. There could be some quirk with the photos or their reproduction going on. Until I see different pix I'm giving Kess the benefit of the doubt on this one. 

Of course if all that gobble-dee-guck isn't the problem and the model actually looks like that, it ain't appearing on my shelf.

I'm not a Plymouth expert and I only have my photo reference material and web images to go on, but to me, apart from the grille and stacked headlights, it is almost unrecognisable as a Plymouth. Or anything else. Looks like some kind of heavy-handed Photoshopped caricature of a generic mid-60s sedan.

Hard to imagine how even a prototype could turn out like that. (Maybe they did a 3D scan of the real car with an out-of-focus laser).

No thanks.
