Description: I ought to clear some space on my shelves, so I need to part with some of my collection. THIS IS MY LAST ONE! If you believe in reincarnation or even simply giving second chances, then you should respect the mission of Round2 Models. They take vintage molds and re-release them to an appreciative audience looking to relive fond memories. They have all of the classics that I remember from my mis-spent youth, from muscle cars to TV shows and Sci-Fi movies. Here is what I have found about this model: The Round2 website no longer shows this kit, so I assume it is Discontinued or Out of Production. From other sources, I found the following info about the subject: Here’s HOT ROD Magazine’s demon of the deep with his supercharged wave-ridin’ Surf/Rod. Stroker’s 7” tall with a 12” board…and he’s spring jointed at the waist to quake and shake when he’s mounted on your car dash or rear window …or in your room. Official Stroker McGurk decal and key tag included in every kit. Build Stroker today…and hit those beaches like the Marines! Spring-jointed to really swing! That’s Stroker McGurk. The madcap mascot for your car or room…right from the pages of HOT ROD Magazine. An authentic replica of the character created and drawn by none other than Tom Medley. When Stroker rides the waves, it’s “Look Out Swimmers!” · Skill Level: 2 (ages 10 and up)· Stroker Figure 7” Tall· Surfboard 12” Long· All-New Groovy Decals· Bonus Stroker Sticker· Official Stroker McGurk decal and Key Tag included· Glue assembly, paint required Scalemates.com shows that this is a 2017 release based on the classic 1963 tooling. They indicate the scale is 1/18, but I am not sure how exact that can be. The Stroker figure is 7” tall so that would be a 10’ 6” tall dude. In 1/10 scale, he would be about 5’ 10”. There is a picture of the box cover, but other than that, there is not much useful information to be found here. There is an 8-minute In-Box Review video on YouTube from hpiguys Workshop that lets you see everything you get in the box. He loved the huge motor, massive surfboard and detailed figure. He had a lot of fun talking about the kit and noted the great condition of the parts, with very little flash and great fit. This kit is in a retro, well-decorated box about 13” x 9” x 2.5”. As you can see from the pictures, the package is pristine and still in the original shrink wrap, so I consider it factory sealed and absolutely gift-ready. This item contains one complete injection molded plastic model kit with white plastic parts, an extensive decal sheet and pictorial assembly and painting guide. It requires cement and paint to complete as shown. I use eBay Managed Payments, but I no longer ship internationally. Auction winner pays the winning bid, and for a limited time, I am offering this wacky kit with $8 Flat Rate Shipping in the US! No reserve and a low starting bid. Check out my other great auctions for combined shipping. Good luck! Those familiar with my listings can tell that I really enjoy these products and the modeling hobby. I like to provide more than just the bare facts about the items, trying to lead you into discovering more about the subjects and optimizing your builds (if that is your goal). I started out picking up models that I was interested in, with the eye toward building them when I had time. Always a bargain-hunter, I accumulated many more than I can build, so I found myself in a Collector status (sounds nicer than a hoarder). As I am sure you have noticed, my items are almost always sealed and in mint condition (I call them Gift-Ready), since I only open them when I am ready to build them. Now I enjoy making these products available to my fellow modelers; both Builders and Collectors. For the Builders, there are probably better (at least cheaper) ways to add to your project lists than buying from me, but you know you are getting top quality. For Collectors, my goal is to save you a few bucks over the competition for the same item in factory sealed and collectible (or resellable) condition.
