August might be a little ambitious for a 3Q kit that hasn't been officially announced.

[Mike77]

I asked a guy from RM about it a few months ago and he said "maybe in a couple of years." I thought his answer was strange given that in a couple of years this current flood of reissues will probably be over. Apparently they have the same thinking. I welcome the Aerodynes and I bet they don't sit around unsold like the regular 1/16 Kenworths.

I'll be grabbing 2 or 3 of these when they come out for sure.

[tbill]

Cool, more must have stuff, lol.

[kilrathy10]

I checked and it is now on my wish list.....It's only $63 and some change boys...... http://plastic-models.com

Check under Monogram models in the "Up to 1/19 scale" section....

No picture, as of yet....

I see that the RoG Kenworth W900 Wrecker is coming back, too.

[Mike77]

3 down, 1 to go...all they need to reissue now is the 1/16 flatbed trailer.

[Mike77]

Tower is showing late September now. Good things come to those who wait!

[Diesel Jockey]

Just had a look through the Stevens International website and in the Revell-Monogram product listing the 1/16th W900 Kenworth Aerodyne is listed as kit no.2508 with a TBA release date which could be anytime soon. Directly below that kit no.2510 is listed as a 1/16th Kenworth W 900 Wrecker Truck. Could this be a typo?

 

[Petetrucker07]

Yep. The wrecker is the 1/25.

[Mike77]

Looks like the 1/16 KW Aerodynes are out. There's a listing for them on Ebay.

[kilrathy10]

http://www.megahobby.com has them......About $65.00

Anyone think that this will wind up on the shelves of a Hobby Lobby? I'd hate to order one online then find out I could have gotten one at the store for 40% off.

[Petetrucker07]

Doubtful. But, thats the only way I'd buy this. I'm not a fan of the early Aerodyne cabs.

[Mike77]

I agree, these won't likely be at Hobby Lobby. The Petes and red KWs weren't on their shelves so there's no reason to think the Aerodynes would show up there.

Don't worry.....http://www.plastic-models has them for around $65.....AND use the coupon code "o1a15" to get $15 off of that !! I snagged one the other day, and another on last week.....After about $8 shipping, came out to around $58.....Hobby Lobby would inflate the regular price to bring it to around there, anyway...... And that code has been good for years.....I use it EVERY time.....

That's kind of why I was asking, there weren't any Hobby Lobby stores around my house when the other two came out. Thanks for that information kilrathy10!

Actually none of them were ever hot sellers. They go together well and are decent kits but are very simplified by 1/24,1/25th scale standards as they were aimed at the youth market. But there is tons of room for super detailing.
