Brett Barrow Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 Sorry to start a new thread, but I couldn't find the original Chevelle thread. The 68 Chevelle and 69 Boss 302 are now in stock. https://www.megahobby.com/products/1968-chevelle-ss-396-1-25-revell.html https://www.megahobby.com/products/1969-boss-302-mustang-1-25-revell.html
michaelbaskett Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) Hi Brett.... I went on to order these kits, two of each, but, I can't justify the shipping to Canada....$61.00 just for shipping is just a bit much.... Maybe they will run a "FREE SHIPPING TO CANADA" sale after Christmas.... Edited December 20, 2018 by michaelbaskett

Richard Bartrop Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 If you're willing to be patient, I'm sure they'll be in the stores up here eventually
mikemodeler Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 Thanks Brett, I just ordered my birthday present to me last night.

Yeah, I can't find a happy medium where our shipping software doesn't either ream us or ream the customer when combining several items on international shipping. Sorry. Just one of the limitations of the particular site hosting we use. If we change the settings one way it undercharges, we go the other and it overcharges. I know Scott and Elm City from my days in wholesale, good guy and a good company.
Tom Geiger Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 Nick Sandone has his in hand and was posting pictures of the open kit on FaceBook... I was told that the "new" Revell was shipping to their largest distributors ( Stephens/Megahobby) but neglecting their smaller direct ship customers. Is there any truth to this or are they shipping these out to all customers?
mikemodeler Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 I called customer service this morning, they had 300 orders for this kit last night alone! Anyone looking for the Moebius F100 4x4 kit? They have that in stock too, for a great price I might add!

Is there any truth to this or are they shipping these out to all customers? We got them via tractor trailer (8 pallets total between the two). Smaller customers would be getting them via FedEx/UPS I imagine and they're a bit busy this time of year. Edited December 21, 2018 by Brett Barrow
Brett Barrow Posted December 21, 2018 Author Posted December 21, 2018 And I'd like to add that Revell US is literally a one-man operation right now. They're using an outside logistics company to handle warehousing and shipping.
RDean58 Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 Well, I ordered my Chevelle and Boss earlier today so I hope there is enough for me :-)
RichCostello Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 I ordered the Chevelle, and a 65 Riv. I'll wait for the Mustang to hit Hobby Lobby, so I can use a coupon.

WOOHOO! For once I should be among the very first to be able to nitpick a kit!
Luc Janssens Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) It's official now I hate you guys! (but in a good way) On the bright side Revell Germany will release it here too (March I think), the Chevelle that is, the Mustang I'm not sure...maybe they will announce it on Jan. 1st.

He won't have them for a couple weeks but his price is only a couple bucks more than Hobby Lobby after the US to CDN $ exchange. No idea what his shipping rates are though.

Mustang is going to be $31CDN, Chevelle $33.50CDN. Shipping depends on where it is going.
Scott - Elm City Hobbies Posted December 22, 2018 Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) I do have the new '48 Ford Convertible, Camaro Pro Stock, '64 Impala, and '69 Daytona, as well as the AMT Riviera and the SJR Donnie Allison Olds (still plenty of the Buddy Baker Olds left, and currently on special until Jan 1) Click the link in my signature.

SfanGoch Posted December 22, 2018 Posted December 22, 2018 What's the deal with Scale Model Addict, Scott? It's been off-line for a looooooooooong time.
