And no, I don't know what cars will be first. Just passing it on.

So, hopefully this will mean we'll see more "R-M" Stockers (albeit with improvements). Anytime the hobby expands in a quality direction is good news! :text-bravo: to the guys at Professor Motor!!!

An American Slot Car manufacture ......WOOHOO!!!!

thats some good news :banana-dance:

Go Andy! That's some super cool news right there, from a bunch of different angles. :)

WOW!!!! That's great news!! :dance: :drool: :clap: :text-bravo: :text-goodpost: :happy-wavemulticolor:

Nice - Revellogram made some really interesting cars.

Just wish that they were being made in the USA.

Revell/Monogram made some great cars, in my opinion they were let down by their chassis - this is great news - hopefully the design improvements focus on the chassis / running gear if so the cars should sell well

cheers

Sounds like PM has bought outright or has at least access to all the old dies and tooling from Revell. Dont really know the Revell car line up that well. What were their more popular cars?

cheers

Very interesting. I wish him the very best of luck.

Don't count on any changes. Just me guessing.

I have already written Andy. Whatever else anybody knows about him, he is definitely one of us, and a major helper to the hobby in the US.
