Racing stripes notwithstanding, that's the first in a looonnngg while that I've seen a FB Mustang that hasn't been "Shelby cloned". I'm digging the standard Fastbacks more than the Shelby lookalikes, as they're a dime-a-dozen nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robberbaron Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Stopped at my local HL on the way home from work. No new releases (as usual), but the shelves were pretty well stocked again. (maybe they've caught up on their staffing shortage, so it's easier to keep the shelves stocked?) One additional Revell kit was now also stickered at $37.99.

slusher Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Most of us has bought all we want of the regular stocked kits on 40% week. Need some new kits in there.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Yeah, like Carl says. We did stop in a HL in another state and they had the 1940 Ford Sedan Delivery that I'm building currently. Never seen that one at my local HL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Not sure how they add new items, might be based on the ability to get a full container shipped in from China, but would guess that is the case and with shipping coming down in price, maybe some new stuff will finally be on the way.

stavanzer Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Has anybody seen the MPC 34 Ford Slammer Kit at HL? I got the 36 Chevy Wild One kit there last week, and was hoping to get the Slammer as a Mate for the Chevy. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1930fordpickup Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I went to the Monroe MI store. Same old car and pickup 1/25 scale kits. There was one of the Race Semi's that I have not seen there before ( the blue truck) Larger 1/16 scale there was a Gold Pontiac Trans Am kit. No Ford bodied dirt cars just the Chevy Body.

CabDriver Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 My local store had a BUNCH of kits marked down to $7.49 today - AMT, Revell, some snap kits, that little Airfix VW Bus that they all seem to have - a good mix of stuff too. Making room for new stuff for Christmas, maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like HL stores have no rhyme or reason when stuff gets marked down as it seems like every store is different when the markdowns occur.

Mark Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 The "discount it and blow the last of them out" deal hasn't happened around here since pre-Covid. I figured they're probably selling everything they get lately, so they didn't have to do that anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbill Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 One of my local stores was blowing out kits for 7.49 as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
