GMP440 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 This is not looking good. Looks like none of the distributers have received the shipments yet. Where or what 's causing the holdup? Maybe Round 2 needs to look into this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that could be the problem.....................Doubt it, but something is up with shipping lately. I've had a few packages go into limbo lately.

1972coronet Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I ordered one from Auto World and it arrived Saturday. I still have orders in from the independent hobby store I purchase the majority of my kits and supplies from; still waiting on those. The reason I'd ordered one from A.W. is simply because I'm an impatient Celt, and I was obsessing over having one in my weathered mitts. "Satisfaction is the death of desire."

drodg Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Model Roundup says on their sight about a warehouse inventory being done at Round 2's main inventory hub and that is part of the delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe contact Wes and ask him to maybe clarify the email. Maybe he emailed and really meant to say the Demon shipmentswere being shipped to the distributors first. Could be just a mistake in the email. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveG Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 The MPC997 '71 Dodge Demon kits are in regular distribution channels now and should be more widely available starting this week. It looks like Model Car Moutain and Auto Models LLC already got there first orders and sold out what the put out on Ebay over the weekend. Very few Wal-marts actually got any Demon kits as part of their 1st quarter program. -Steve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea. at least 2 of the sellers have had a few dozen . All at $29.99 plus postage I stopped by my local hobbyshop today and asked about them and they havent had a single one I'm just going to wait for my Hobbylinc order.
