Received latest EXR Releases - Impressed!

I received several of the EXR 2743's and Trinity FBOX's today - and I am impressed.   I am definitely going to pick up more of the gons - and it may cost me an arm and a leg but if they did the Wafflesides, I'd probably pick up all the SOU and NS's for sure.

I got some of the new 4427's a few days ago, they are also quite nice. Excellent detail, metal wheels, body couplers, etched walkways, etc. All the stuff that we kind of expect now on RTR. I'd still rather buy kits at a hobby shop but.....  :ashat:

Ditto on the waffle sides, I'll take a few of whatever they make unless they do DM&E, then I'll just get all those  :D

I think I liked the FBOX run a bit too much, plus I have 3 more on the way.  :D

I'm glad I'm not the only one who went crazy over the FBOX's.

I have all six of the SOO 4427's. I have to do some tweaking, cause they do not roll very well. My first thought is that the axle is rubbing on the body mount box. Other than that, very nice cars.

I ordered some Evans 5277 Boxes (early) I was/am very excited about this body style being offered. They are very nice indeed. Now to figure out the best way to strip some of them.

Picked up one of the Thrall gons..again nice and will buy more, but depending on road...as the Atlas product may be inferior, i can get undecs. (preferred)

As much as I prefer to support my dealer(s) the order/shipping process was flawless and very very fast.

The Atlas version is not inferior.  You will be pleased with the undec versions.

For you guys wanting the Waffle Sides, Christmas is about to come way early. I wouldn't mind some either, but I'm not giving those ********* a nickel.

I have some atlas undecs, I like them. I probably should of used a different word than inferior. 

Its nice to have body mounts out of the box...the tooling looks better but I don't have an atlas at the office to compare directly (order arrived in the mail today). I will do a personal compare when these make it home.

The ends on the Atlas model are not compromised due to coupler swing, so the car should look find with body-mounts.
