Revell 2004 Chevy Impala Police Car

Anyone know if this kit is out yet? It was scheduled to come out in December 2004, but I went to the LHS the other day and didn't see it. I think it's part of the Wheels of Fire series. Revell-Monogram's website isn't much help, looks as if it hasn't been updated in 2 years. If anyone has any info, it would be greatly appreciated.

Well, when we talk about Revell, late release date is common.

When you see a date, add 6 month to it.

Re: Re: Revell 2004 Chevy Impala Police Car

is it going to be an actual kit of the squad car, or one of those "flashing lights" lowrider ones that they had earlier a few years back??

any word on what the markings for it are going to be? Probably NYPD or something like that.

6 months from the first delay, the inevitable second delay adds another 9 . It's now taking Revell about 24-30 months (sometimes more) to get a new kit out. Pathetic...they need to quit announcing stuff unless it's already nearing production. But that'll never happen, because they have to announce a new model just to get intial sales orders, and if not enough orders, they won't do the kit. Brilliant marketeers they are at Revell...

Re: Revell 2004 Chevy Impala Police Car

Figures, no wonder everyone hates Revell-Monogram. How did you guys find out about the delay? I've done searches on the kit and found nothing but the announcement of the kit's Dec 04 release date. So much for that. I was looking forward to that kit. I'm hoping the police equipment in it is good at least. Guess I'll have to wait many more months to find out...*sigh*
