• MODELING HISTORY: Anybody else remember these kits with Garage display items? If my memory serves, these kits involved a law suit (c.2000). Too bad...SCANS INSIDE
  • Don't remember this kit at all........the parts look similar to what was in the Fujimi Garage kits tho' that would be obvious seeing they are both kits of the same item.........lol. *NM*
  • Yes. I have two unbuilt in the stash (1/24 not the 1/43). They cloned a lot of the R&D Unique scale tools when that company was still in business. Hence the legal issues. *NM*
    • Gerry, the ones i have are also the 1/24 version. *NM*
  • IIRC that kit ended up in a lawsuit .......
    • R&D Unique was the company they cloned parts. *NM*
      • YES....Thanks Gerry! *NM*
    • Think the kits were dumped at Walmart. I've got one of the 1/24 versions myself. Think I splurged for the 1/43 kit--it came with a free Dodge Viper diecast ....... *PIC*
  • Sure do. The 1/43 one is what I started with to do a replica of my one-to-one garage, I have the 1:24 version as well but haven’t done anything with it *NM* *PIC*
  • I think I still have a couple of each scale versions. Didn't know about the law suit. *NM*
  • I saw something very similar to that today at the local antique mall, I only glanced at it, had snap on tool logos on the box, Are those the same things? *NM*
    • Snap-on one will be diecast; they did a bunch of it *NM*
  • No comment... *NM*
