 |
|
I know this isn’t a NASCAR topic, however there seems to be no end of modeling knowledge on this board
My local hobby store has 69 Camaro Z28 kit for 50 bucks. The artwork is much different from the Revell Camaro kits I’m used to seeing at Hobby Lobby or Michael’s. And the box is more flat and wide (like a Tamiya kit). He said it’s expensive cause it’s “ Revell of Germany”. He can’t tell me if it’s any different that the standard Revell of USA at the aforementioned chain hobby places.
By any chance does anyone have experience with RoG kits? Is there anything unique or different about the kit inside? My guess is no but wanted to ask |

| From what I've seen the actual kit (plastic) is the same with different style instructions and sometimes slightly different decals. |

Its the Revell USA kit reboxed for the European market, the only difference will be the decal sheet in most cases. |
