If you are a model builder you will like this. Revell just released a 1/25 scale Magnum RT model. I have the SRT but it took a ton of work to make it look like my car and still does not look quite right (the models dimensions were off). This Maggie is for real... Its about time...

My plastic SRT converted to an RT:

Just finished my Revell Magnum model but it did not come out as good looking as yours. Great job! Hemimax:sad:

I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's a killer job you did!
I did a car just like MY car, but I also did a 1/25 version of my wife. It turned out EXACT! Hard to tell her from the real her!

I can't get over the price. Model cars were less than $2 when I was a kid.

No, that is what I all ready have. This is a brand new kit (I called Revell to verify) Here is a screen shot of the new one and its an RT not an SRT (real engine cover and all)...

Because it is. That is the one I have pictured done up as my car. The new version gives you the option of being a stock RT or making it custom with some extra included parts.

I have that Magnum RT by Revell. I bought it last winter at WalMart from their clearance section. Its a pre-assembled prepainted metal body kit with your choice of wheels and stereo crap. Its quite gross if ya ask me. It even has those lambo doors guys seem to like. Mine's a bit roughed up since its primarily a toy for my son. Nothing is sacred with a four year old.http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x94/LilJuicedCoupe5oh/DSC01781.jpg

I wonder if it includes RT rims...if it does im getting 2, one for my dad, and one for me, so i can put the srt rims, to look like sxt, and paint them both blue and we will have matching cars for carshows.

You can always order aftermarket rims from your local hobby store. Just have to search. That is how I actually found the Cragar 610C's in minature. Here is the size comparison between the plastic model (left)and the Wal Mart metal version (on the right)... The plastic version is so much easier to create as your own...
