AMT/Ertl is releasing (has released) a couple of pickup trucks that look like they would be fun to build.

Thanks Scott. The GMC I haven't seen before, but, the Ford has to be a re-release of the same model I built when I was 10. It looks the same and AMT is just always on the hunt to shortcut the modeler for their hard-earned cash. Not that I'm cynical or anything.

Have to agree - the image even has MRC as a logo
So it's rehash. But a fun looking truck none-the-less

What I want to know is when is AMT/Ertl going to release more of their truck tractors! They used to have a bunch (Kenworth, Peterbilt, Autocar, Mack, etc), but now you can only find them for crazy money on eBay!
