Re: AMT reissue 1:25 scale 1972 Blazer model

I built that Thunderbolt kit to look like my`71 back in`84.It`s expected to pay big bucks for vintage kits.I think it sucks that they sell this new kit for so much more than other new kits.The dies were made 35 years ago.They just need to pour the goo and box it.There`s no comparing a re-issue to an original.I have a collection of vintage kits.I can`t seem to find my Thunderbolt.
