Sunday Fun: Some old box art for your entertainment!


Recommended Posts

As you guys likely know by now, I do love my MPC car kits. There’s something about grabbing onto an MPC, whether original or reissue, that just gets my engine turning. One thing that’s for sure, they really had distinctive box art. It was so much better, even at its blandest, than some of the Revell and Monogram stuff of the same era.

Just for something fun to do, I took a few more pics of some of my newer MPC kits and put the box art up on my website. If you want a retro blast, check it out. Do you remember building any of these, back in the day?

You're welcome!


I don't get to really let the kits loose all at once often, so I like to take the odd group pic. :)

 

I wanted that Fiero for ages... finally found one a year or two ago. I never had any of them originally; I wasn't in to modelling much then, and not cars at all. That's one reason I'm going so guns-out to get as many as I can now!

Don,  Hasegawa did release their own decals back in the 80s, but only for 1/72. Here is a link to their F-86F/F-104J sheet.  I too remember a Hasegawa pop of the Revell F-86D in 1/48, but didn't buy it back in the nineties, as my interests were elsewhere.  Shoulda, woulda, coulda!  R/ Dutch
