This kit is labeled “Special Edition Series”. And in comparison with the average scale kit, this one is surely special. I wanted to buy since I first saw it! This kit features a 150 Chevy Utlity Sedan (which you can also build as the Black Widow Stock Car). The 150 Chevy Utility Sedan – also called Handyman […]

This is a nice AMT Kit, with a few extras but no big surprises. I tried to figure out which year this truck could be, but Mack manufactured pretty much the same R685ST for several years (at least mid seventies to mid eighties) – so I couldn’t find out the year this truck is supposed […]

As the title says, this is a lowrider kit. Hoever, you can build the car stock too. Although there are some low rider kits around, they aren’t that many, so this may be great feature to build this kit or to take parts for kit bashing. But that is not the only thing that makes […]

As the name tells you, you get three classic chevys in one box – now, if that isn’t already a good start!! And wait for the rest to come! Although you may not find this kit very often (it was made in 1985), I thought of making a review anyway – just because this kit […]

I love this kit. Not only because it is 64 Ford Mustang, which is my favorite car, but also because of the kit itself. First of all, the box is just awesome. It comes in a full color sheet metal box. The box alone, with the art work on top, is already worth the purchase. […]

The Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria surely is a charming car. You know by now that this car means something to us at Modeljunkyard. My brother wrote about his real 55 Vicky some time ago.  Now it is time to check out the kit. This kit is one of AMT’s finest, in my opinion. It has […]

I bough this kit back in 2004 and it was one of the biggest surprises I ever had with a model kit. I didn’t know much about Trumpeter. They used to make airplanes and other military model kits, that was all I knew. This kit is one of the few cars they made so far. The […]
