For multiple kits, you will have to check each one out separately. Edited September 13, 2020 by BlackSheep214 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but not the end of the world for us modelers. I might run in in the morning and support my local HL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuces ll Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I just heard on news that Hobby Lobby is going to raise their pay rate to 17 bucks an hour.... Not bad at all! If I was jobless, I'd probably take them up on it.... And work in the model section... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Roberto Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I guess I'm just naturally suspicious, wondering if they're trying to get rid of their inventory before they stop selling kits entirely. Their model section gets smaller every time I visit a store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCostello Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I don't care if they have 40% off sales if it's on the same old kits. I always have a coupon, so if they were to ever get something new, I can use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that is the case this year, but I certainly hope so. I am still waiting for several of the newer releases to hit their shelves.

I had a few employees tell me the problems they have had with that department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their model section gets smaller every time I visit a store. Right as hobbies have made a comeback during a pandemic and maybe brought some more people to model building? Their model section gets smaller as they bring in new stuff to sell along side of model kits. Five years ago you didn't have the tools and supplies that exist now at Hobby Lobby, things like Evergreen sheet, all of the different small tools and airbrush accessories and paints. Yes, they will have to do something about the Testors paints but I am guessing they will just carry whatever Testors offers, maybe they will add the Revell paints.
