According to Savino's web site the NASCAR 2022 Camaro in the Chevy announcement markings has been "sold out". Does anybody on this forum have one of these kits? If so, what's it like? How good is it? Did they get it right? Trying to find out all I can about it before I shell out the big bucks for one. Smile

I take that to mean they have pre-sold the entire production. It is my understanding the kit will not ship until early March.

The 'Rollout Display Camaro ZL1' is sold out.
The Hendrick cars should be in stores in late March.

The SJR Models Camaro was designed directly from art/CAD drawings/files provided directly from Chevrolet and NASCAR.

If you are wanting to get a 2022 NextGen Chevy Camaro "Rollout" kit. Salvino's is sold out of their pre-order. Mike's Decals, Model Round Up, & Wes's Model Car Corner are partners on the kit with Salvino's. I think I saw that Wes's Model Car corner has some of their pre-order allotment left. Not sure if Mike's & Model Round Up still have any of their pre-order allotment left.... The "Rollout" kit & the 2022 #9 NAPA kit we'll see next month. The #5, #24, #48 kits to follow soon after. The NextGen Camaro has been delayed by about a month, cause NASCAR made a few minor changes to the NextGen Racecar in January. Thus it delayed the model kit, cause Salvino's had to make the changes in the kit. Holding up production.

Wish lists are all well and good, but I'd caution to hold off on any additional NextGen subject requests until we have the five promised kits in our grubby hands.

The logic seems to indicate that a large amount of the Camaro Next Gen kit tooling could be used for Mustang and Camry kits when and if the needed licensing is in hand.

I mean, why not extend the usefulness of your investment if you can?

I feel quite strongly that once their obligation to Hendrick for the Next Gen kits is fulfilled, you'll see SJR's efforts on the in-progress "classic" NASCAR kits ramp back up.

Clever negotiating could yield a licensing agreement that would allow additional Ford "classic" kits from SJR from the Revell/Monogram tooling also. At this point, we can only hope for the best result, wait and see.

I don't recall any Revell/Monogram NASCAR kits that would apply to Toyota licensing so the most likely Camrys for the foreseeable future would be NexGen cars. Probably (and this is only my guess) from the 23XI team.

I did a pre-order through Mike's Decals and Salvinos websites to see which one will get me these new kits the fastest. I'll stock a couple Chevy's then wait for the Fords to be released, hopefully they will be Penske, SHR, or RFK. Undecided about building a Toyota unless it's Hamlin, Bubba, or Kurt Busch.

Be prepared to do some filling work to the roof because details that are on the underside of the roof were molded to the topside like the small hatch on the right and the curve lines linking the roof flaps. And the driver's side roof rail needs to be extended towards the front to match the passenger side rail.. There's also a line going thru the right side roof flap that also needs to be filled... Have fun!!
