Anyone know the hobby lobby price yet?

[Fat Brian]

One has it for $34.99, my other local one has it for $39.99. It ends up being about $25 with the coupon.

I just got my four kits from Tower hobbies. Paid $27.83 per kit, delivered to my door. ($70.66 for two kits, use code 01A15 to get $15.00 off that and free shipping.)

Thanks Ben! I had not opened mine and wasn't going to yet, but it turned out to be okay.

Hope mine are waiting for me when I get home tomorrow. It's been a long week. I'm ready to spend my weekend looking at my kits.

Got mine today. Not to bad, shipped on Tuesday got it today. Checked it for the package malfunction; ok there too. Very happy with it. Can't wait for the Papa truck in Dec.

 

[Mr mopar]

Got my two kits all is fine!

[Brent]

Bought 2 from a local hobby shop. approx $50.00 each. Wasn't going to open both of them but I guess I should.... Or just use the old cab that is in pieces in the parts bin.

Really nice kit. The drivetrain and chassis go together nicely, not too much flash. Some of my chrome is a bit spotty. The tires are great. I love having this line of kits back. The Hobby Lobby price, with coupon was about $26. I'm down to paint and decals. The decal sheet, despite being huge doesn't cover anything below the doors. All of the darker blue and the red on the fenders must be painted. An odd feature of this kit is that the outlines for all of the graphics are raised on the body parts. A throwback to some of the plane kits of the early 60s. I don't have any allegiance to this particular truck I just liked the drag Semi aspect, so I am changing the paint scheme around the bottom. I shot the fenders and sponsons with Star Spangled Blue One Coat and will still use all of the original decals and painted stripes up top.

I'd like to see your progress Sam. If possible...

[Daddyfink]

I just grabbed mine from Hobby Lobby, thanks for leaving one for me Sam! LOL! 

Opened and checked it out, the cab is in there and all looks good! 

[Ben]

I just got my two replacement cabs for my two kits that were missing them, today from Round 2. Excellent customer service!

[samdiego]

Still need to add the dark blue on the hood and upper cab among other things
