Awesome I got 2 of the stock models coming my way soon and I will be getting a couple of the Nascar kits as well. Great time to be a model builder. Always like the 300 series cars.

The pre-sell is going very strong and we may sell out again before the kits hit stateside. I know there are a number of dealers with kits available but don't wait long.
This kit is as good or better than the Hudson......

I preordered one through Model Roundup, where I got my Hudson race car kit. Looks like the regular 300 kit is out very soon..

Keep 'em coming, Moebius!

Man... after the Hudson and the C300, what do they do for an encore? Whatever it is, it's going to be good... B)

surely a company like mobieus doesnt let their products go unavailable to the general market? if the hudson is sold out, isnt another issue of it imminent? i would sure think so, i cant imagine producing 5000 or whatever of a new tool and then somehow relegating it to the collectors market. so i wouldnt worry about not being able to get something right now because just like the bus, if you miss one another will be coming in just a moment.

There may be a little mix up here........The showroom stock 1953 Hudson kit is 'open stock' and available now at any dealer that wants to order them. If you can't get one let me know and I can direct you.
The 1952 Hudson race car of Tim Flock was a limited edition issued by Moebius with Model King. These were limited to 3000 and were sold out before they landed stateside.

Same with the Chrysler 300 kit. The showroom stock kit, which is landing in stores this week, is open stock.
The Tim Flock race car is a limited edition kit. It is best to pre-order it. Again if you want one and can't find one I can direct you to one.....

There's lots of great stuff coming down the road. These guys are serious about the plastic model kit biz!!!!

For what it is worth, if anyone is looking for the Tim Flock Hudson Hornet, I still have 2 in stock. Click on the link in my sig.



Please, that is awfully close to selling, which is a no-no on the board. You guy can use PMs if need be. -- Moderator

The regular 300 kits are already out and about (my local shop will be getting them in in the next few weeks) but if the sales of the Flock Hornet were any indicator... get one of these Flock Chryslers, like, YESTERDAY!

The stock 300 is another awesome kit! Can't wait to see the Flock NASCAR version.

My local neighborhood personal plastic pusher is getting swamped with pre-pre-orders! Another WINNER for sure.

Just to be clear... these MK kits are identical to the "stock" Moebius kit, except for the decals.

Correct?

I thought the exhaust is different, and doesn't pass through the trunk on the Tim Flock/NASCAR version?

And wheels (open steelies for the race cars).
