I know MPC used the postwar tooling, but I was wondering if MPC engine shells were made in plastic as opposed to their original postwar metal shells?
My experience with MPC is generally unfavorable. Extremely light-weight rolling stock, and plastic-bodied engines that sat high on their trucks. I compare it to my postwar GG-1, which I abused the **** out of as a child and never flinched! Then again, I had the lower-end stuff.
