Can-Con Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) For those of you who are getting impatient to receive their Demon, I believe there's certain "ancient rituals" you can preform that may conjure them up in a more timely fashion. 😈😁😉 Edited January 5 by Can-Con 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO the hood stripes work if its a light color. White, yellow , butterscotch or maybe a light green, On a darker color,,,not so much. I much prefer a body color hood . The wing I could live with,,,or without 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in California, so , in theory, I should be able to find them on 'Mart's site. A cursory examination earlier today didn't exhibit the 1971 Demon 340 - that's why I was wondering if you saw them in person or on their site.

Mark Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 WM in my area have not carried model kits in over fifteen years, except for the temporary Christmas displays in the aisles. Even then, not all stores; in fact this holiday season only one area store even had that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I am in Indiana, I have 3 different Walmarts within my regular work/home orbit. I've only seen kits at one of them, and the last time was probably 2 years ago. Seems like they sold quickly at the time, which is why I'm surprised I haven't seen them again. I've pretty much given up trying to understand the reasoning.

Rob Hall Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 So if they are showing up now at W-M, hopefully the usual online vendors will get their stock soon and ship the preorders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niteowl7710 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 1 hour ago, 1972coronet said: How in the devil did 'mart get the LM29H1 before anyone else ? Because they buy in such vast quantities, directly out of China, and have (since Covid) chartered their own fleet of container ships and actually gone through and had Wal*Mart specific container trailers built. They undoubtedly bought (via Round2) directly from the factory and shipped to themselves directly from China direct. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
