I was in the Titusville, FL store yesterday to get a few things & noticed a few of the shelf labels had been replaced. I didn't see the '60 F-100 label, but did see one for the Revell '39 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery.

The '64 Olds & '66 Mustang they had on clearance a few weeks ago are back on the shelf at full price!

I thought I had seen a Revell '30 Ford there, I'll go back next week to look. I would at least grab a '36 Chevy modified kit at 40% off.

I have yet to see the 30 Coupe at HL since the retool. See the 29 roadster all the time, but never the 30 coupe.

I was there yesterday, no '30 as well. They serve up the SOS it appears.

Around here the week without the sale is the time to see what they have.  I am sure early monday the retirees hit the store (as they should) for the stuff they need. 

There are always empty spots during the sale dates but not so much when no sale.

which HL stores carry the AMT 1960 F-100, the Richmond IN store says it is not listed as being stocked.....

My local store here in CA has a spot for it, but no kits yet. So I guess they are coming.

My local North West Houston Hobby Lobby had the 1960 Ford F-100, and the 1971 Dodge Demon on their shelves. That's the first new kits I've seen in that store in months.

No inside info here just lots of retail exsperence. R2/AMT sold out the first run of the 60 Ford before they landed. The 2nd run is also about sold out.  As long as the kit is this hot there is no need to sell to any mass merchandiser like HL. Once sales cool some R2 may offer the kit at the discount MM need. Until then no MM sales. Just IMHO ONLY!

Stopped at the Merrillville, IN HL after work today.  They had one Demon and one '60 Ford PU on the shelf.  They're not there anymore...?

I’m glad you said…that saves me driving there to see if they have them ?

I visited the HL that I go to the most yesterday. Their usual model aisle was nearly taken over by diecast cars. The 1/25 model cars were down to 9 at the very lower left, plus the AMT 1/16 '55 Chevy. They had another dozen or so 1/25 on a nearby "overflow" display.

I had a Demon in my hand for a few minutes, but decided to put it back.

Ran in to Hobby Lobby yesterday for a look-see. The usual models were there but there were a few empty holes that might've had something new? Don't recall seeing empty spaces before so don't know if stock is down or what. I bought nothing.

I have been giving HL a rest for a while. Like I need another kit and I have a lot of primer stocked up. I will check their site for the 40% off notice and go soon just to look around.
