Revell has rereleased its Mustang Boss 302 with a new box and decals, although it appears that several components across the nine runners are intended for alternative iterations. The moulding is a crisp, if simple, affair, with an option to display the powerplant, but the wheels clip on and this allows them to turn. Similarly, the bonnet is a component that slots into place, while the separate and well-detailed engine/transmission sub-assembly is almost a kit in itself; the individual heads, rocker covers (featuring a legible engine name), manifolds, starter motor and distributor cover combine to make this area a highlight. The interior has a more basic appearance in comparison, and can only be constructed in a lefthanded configuration, hence decals denoting British registration are a surprising inclusion. Other markings include distinctive black ‘C-stripes’ for the side panels, tyre legends, interior dials and a selection of continental registration options.
