Round 2

Round2, LLC is a US-based specialist in collectible and model building products, headquartered in South Bend, Indiana – known for plastic model kits, die-cast models, slot cars, and model railroad accessories. Its brand portfolio includes AMT®, MPC®, Polar Lights®, Lindberg/Hawk, Auto World®, Johnny Lightning, Racing Champions, and Classic Metal Works. As an umbrella brand, Round2 revives legendary kits and develops new ones – from US classics (muscle cars, trucks) to Star Trek spaceships and Space: 1999. The ongoing product pages regularly feature new releases and reissues such as the AMT Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye, the AMT '60 Chevrolet Nomad, or the MPC 1972 Plymouth Duster. A milestone for the industry was Round2's acquisition of the AMT, MPC, and Polar Lights trademarks in 2011, followed by the acquisition of Lindberg and Hawk in 2013. This secured iconic tools for Round2 and allowed it to consistently expand its portfolio in the automotive, sci-fi, air/sea, and figure categories. For the European market, Round2 is strengthening its distribution – in the UK, for example. For example, via Bachmann Europe for the brands AMT, MPC, Polar Lights, and Lindberg. This makes classics and new releases available more quickly, from US automobiles to sci-fi bestsellers like the USS Enterprise or Eagle Transporter. Round2 positions itself as "by fans for fans": Reissues are often released as "Retro Deluxe" with improved decals, instructions, collector's boxes, or new tooling. The goal: high level of detail, good fit and iconic licenses under one roof – attractive for beginners as well as ambitious model builders.
