January is wrapping-up soon folks and we're currently putting the final touches on our upcoming April 2018 issue of Scale Auto Magazine. Look for it in bookstores, newsstands and hobby shops on sale March 6. If you're one of our many beloved subscribers, expect it in your mailbox by the last week of February.
Revell USA sent us over a big cardboard box yesterday that arrived in our editorial department full of new and reissue kits. The theme for this go-around of kits seems to be "All-things 4x4." Among other vehicles in the box, there's a Ford Baja Bronco, 1980 Jeep Honcho pickup and a '78 GMC "Big Game Country" truck for those craving a bit of backcountry flair. That Jeep kit I mentioned also includes a little snowmobile!
Let's take a look at what we've got, each kit retails on Revell USA's website for about $23-$26:
