We have found it can take up to 2-3 weeks in some areas to get them with periodical mail. Some areas slower than others. I do not know where they mail it from. The USPS system is still slow in some areas. Hopefully we see this sooner than later.

blunc Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 it's nice to see the Desert Scale Classic get some "cover-age". I don't know if they were the first to go to the virtual contest format, but they certainly did it well.
GRiN Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Hey guys, I got my copy in the mail today. Yay!!!!!!!! Gary

Super28 Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Got mine today. Been waiting like a kid at Christmas!
Tom Geiger Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Haven’t seen mine yet. My town seems to be slow delivering the magazine rate stuff.
TonyK Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 It was nice to thumb through it and see nothing but CARS. Cars and more cars. I have always enjoyed the kit reviews as they are so very thorough. Have only read the Grumpy Vega review and it's sad and entertaining at the same time pointing out how far from the actual car the kit is.
misterNNL Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 My copy arrived today. Hurray! Great issue with crystal clear hi-def photos and enough inspiration to keep me going till the next issue.
SpeedShift Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 Haven't received mine yet..........anyone in Virginia or north east coast/metro areas get theirs ?
blunc Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 the Forum Finds section is a great addition (IMHO).
vintagerpm Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 Received mine on Saturday. Excellent issue. Really enjoying reading the articles in this one.
forthlin Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 I was hoping mine would be in today's mail, but no such luck.?
echo Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 Great job on the latest issue. Good articles, nicely done by everyone involved. The cover was a knockout.
oldnslow Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Received mine on Monday , along with Model Railroader and Fine Scale , just need my Narrow Gauge Gazette to show up and I'll have all of my model magazines for the month . ?

chepp Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Mine arrived on Saturday in ZIP 917-- in southern California. Looks good!
Reegs Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Showed up yesterday. Not bad, not bad at all. Now to get the advertisers to get on the stick and buy space!?
forthlin Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Got my first issue today & I love It. All cars & nothing else. Great articles, lots of clear pictures & love the model reviews.
BDSchindler Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Larry...got my copy today and thumbed through and read a few of the articles. Nice to see this magazine getting back on its feet. Well laid out with great, well rounded and detailed content regardless of the model building skill level of the reader. There’s something for everyone interested in the automotive modeling hobby! One thing I noticed, besides the great coverage, was the quality of the paper stock. I wrote for Toy Cars and Models until it’s death a few years ago and always hated the thin rag that was used. Barely heavier than glossy toilet paper! It was one of the things that when I was writing for the ungodly mis-managed “The Car Room Magazine” that was focused on was the use of heavier rag closer to what Hot Rod Journal used. Helps to instill quality in the magazine (eh, when managed correctly, that is) Like the previous issue, great job! Looking forward to the next issue! Edited April 14, 2021 by BDSchindler
majel Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Got the latest issue in the mail the other day and as a long time subscriber I've got to say it is impressive! I really enjoy the "Forum Finds" section, what a great idea and an excellent way to tie the magazine and forum together. Nice job on the Desert Scale Classic coverage, all together a great success!!
Modelbuilder Mark Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Mine arrived last weekend, very pleased! Way to go guys!
