  • A golden oldie! One of the original series of "Playing With Cars" videos - a review of Sunstar's outrageous 1:12 Volkswagen "Samba" bus!
    Look for more of these older reviews on TH-cam and on Car Room TV!

    Don't know what J.D. Kelly is doing these days but I sure wish he was still posting TH-cam videos. Been a few years since he last did so. His enthusiasm is infectious and I always enjoyed his reviews.

    Hey, checking back in. Glad to see this is still up. I had gotten myself the green and tan 57 11 window, and the 1950 split window beetle and have enjoyed them for years now.

    @1999lev Hello, Anthony - It's actually really well done - at least on the four or five samples I've had my hands on. You do want to keep the top up, though, as much as possible, just to keep the fabric stretched and flexible. The mechanism works smoothly, and it's surprisingly easy to operate, as long as you don't force anything.
    Thanks for watching!

    @1999lev You won't be disappointed! In fact, we just did a review of the beetle cabriolet this week - check out our channel page for the latest episode of Car Room Report to see the car.
    Thanks for watching!

    The early busses are referred to as “Barndoor” not because of the side doors but because of there larger than later years engine lid size. 👍👍

    @compound32 It really depends on the model, the weight, and the structure beneath. Some models have accurately sprung suspensions - they ride and compress at a rate and height that replicates the real vehicle's. Some are stiffly sprung, and some others have no suspension at all - we call these "static" suspensions. Others have loose fitting pieces that can make the wheels kick out (like the Shelby you're talking about), or look wrong. Is the model you got one from the Shelby Collectibles line?

    Just recently I bought a Shelby convertible Mustang for ($49) I think or i think ($40), its a 1/18 scale and when i bought it and took out of the box the noticed that because of the car being a die cast the mass of the metal pushed down on the car causing the wheels on the front to push away at an angle (which i did not like). Do these cars do the same?

    @Ferrariman601 They're really making great strides to install better features and killer detail - and they're succeeding, for the most part.

    @legr8est1234 Yeah - the price went up a tick to around $200.00, though - this is an older video. Still a lot of bang for the buck.

    Did you say this model is $150? 7:42 A 1/12 for that price is crazy cheap, especially for such a detailed model.
