Evil72gto Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Ok so I work for a hobby shop in Massachusetts and I just got a fax copy of an email that was sent to 1 of my distributors from Revell. They are back with a new company here in the US. There new warehouse is located outside of Chicago. & there is product on the water on its way to the new warehouse & they are trying to have stuff available by September - October time frame & quantities will be limited. So be patient.
Oldcarfan27 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Guess the panic is over. Watch the speculators cry and the prices drop!

Evil72gto Posted August 16, 2018 Author Posted August 16, 2018 Prices are still the same no price increase yet.!!! I got a list of the first 50 kits that will be issued as well. For those of us who didn't get the GMC Big Game truck or the Ice Patrol Jeep Honcho those are 2 of the kits that will be out in October. & the Pro Mod Camaro should be in on 1 of the first shipments.

I originally posted it in "on the work bench" to hopefully get as many EYEBALLS on it as possible before it was moved to this section. & that is where I alway stop first when I come on here.

Mike999 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Adding my own "Heh heh heh ..." I just did a quick eBay check. Here are some recent prices on the Revell Foose F-100: Buy It Now asking prices: $44.99, $69.99, $79.95, $85.00, $89.57, $92.99, $99.99; $299.98 (plus $13.98 shipping!)

Dave Van Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 My Hobby Lobby still has a Foose truck...at 40% off it's a lot less than folks have paid of late.

I just picked one up online last week for $15. It was still sealed. I know the Baja Bronco has gone up a lot too. My local HL still has those on the shelf.
Bucky Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) Kinda puts a damper on this guys plans! Check out this deal! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Revell-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-Plastic-Model-Kit-Toy-Play-US-SELLER-New/273156747053?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Edited August 16, 2018 by Bucky

I went to his store. He has that same price, $333.38, on 1 bottle of Testors paint. And 1 container of Testors glue. And a Revell Nova kit and a 1/35 military kit. But a couple of other scale models are reasonably priced. Weird. I guess the lesson here is "Always preview your eBay listings." Then go back and double-check after the listing is posted. I still can't believe the seller asking $299.98 for the Foose truck...which did not seem to be a mistake. I hope he bought several cases of that kit.
Bucky Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Yeah, I just checked his store. He has a lot of $5 to $15 dollar stuff listed for $333.38!
