Richard Took the bait ...I know not all 80's cars were terrible , just most of them look old and dated and don't come with cupholders Still made in China/ North Korea no doubt .... and that's the thread trashed there. ....good work Sydney Stevepd, coogrfan, Kagemusha and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLWP Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I'd say the Allegro is long gone. Something odd happened with the Metro meaning the tooling was never sold on. The Lada is a recycled FIAT You picked the wrong image of the last one, one of my favourite cars!: And, of course, the Morgan is a recycled 1930's car Richard Scotsman, Stevepd, MikeC and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) If this kit is more sprues from Fly then I do not need it. I already spent too much on the Fly kits. LOL Edited November 2, 2021 by Rick Griewski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if any other manufacturers did it they'd be laughed out of town . Ahem, are you forgetting Airfix Vintage Classics? LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1998 my Dad bought me the DH.88 Comet. As an 11-year-old I was appalled at the fit and detail...I saw it still in stores only five years ago, without any indication it was a kit approaching 60!

Brad-M Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 If that's a re-pop of the Fly kit for that price, wouldn't it be a huge steal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
