Model car...box art!!!!

Box art eye candy was way better for ya than the real thing sweet stuff. Memories better than the cavities.

 

Here's a newer one with old school art....

 

Very cool!

 

Got 2 of those in my stash.... It's a damn good kit... With 2 complete motors.....

 

I like this one since Willys didn't make the pickup, or passenger cars for that matter, after 1942!

 

You probably know by now the AMT reissue kit is not even close to the quality of the original 60s version. Still worth finding an original for a righteous build.

 

My all-time childhood (and adulthood!) favorite.

 

I kept mine!!

 

Is that the Monogram logo on the box????

 

And one more that's close to my heart:

 

A 1950's Hubley metal kit. This is the first complete, un built Hubley model I have seen in over 25 years building Hubleys from pieces scrounged at swap meets and garage sales.

 

Ha, that looks familiar!

 

I've got two Hubley Duesenbergs built by my dad in the 70's, and 2 mint in the box Duesenbergs. One is a town car the other a phaeton. This is the built 2, the unbuilt 2 are at home.

 

Here is my Hubley Packard.Very cool!

 

You can tell the Hubleys are older,both the Duesys and my Packard by the yellowed whitewalls.

 

In honor of the 35th anniversary (today) of rhe release of this classic album.

 

Very cool!What is up with the funny shortly tanks?

 

They are a series of "Egg Tanks" by Meng. Based upon the World War Toons video game. Really fun little slump busters.

 

Lol!just like the egg planes!

 

Or the Eggliner trains!

 

My all-time favorite box art.

 

I got one of the trike kits stashed here or in storage....
