New kits at a Walmart near me.

[Rocketman455]

Not even Christmas and a local Walmart already has a kit display.

I had no idea AMT sold glue, at $7.67 I think I'll pass on buying some! Nice display, no Wal-Mart around me ever has kits!

Same shipper showed up at my WM about 10 days ago. The 66 Mustang for $22 was the only big deal to me!

The Monroe Mi store had some glue along with paint on clearance and it was still too much money.  All the kits were gone by then. 

I will get a couple of the Fastbacks when they and of they get around here.

The store in Huntly IL has had some since last Christmas. So far same old, same old. I did buy the Cutlass and the Chevy Station Wagon $17.99 ea.

The prices stated on their display are at or near MSRP. HL will list the same kits for $30, but with their 40% off bi-weekly sales their price will be lower.

I’m really surprised to see that Coronet in the picture.

IF they have the kit in question.  I haven't seen the '55 Nomad anywhere yet, and have seen the Coronet convertible in only one place locally.

Haven’t seen any at my local Walmart. Must be a regional thing.

[Trendsetta68]

Wow, the Coronet and the Charger !!! ??

My local Walmart (Exton, PA) has had that same display since Christmas.  

[deuces wild]

I'm eyeballing that '68 El Camino SS....????

My Walmart recently got the same display.

And another fresh set has shown up at my local Walmart

I love the sales pitch to appeal  to 21st Century parents (or young responsible adults).

Develop:
Visual-motor skills
Cognitive skills
Planning and stratergizing  skills

What a deal - just for less than $50 (including paints and glue), you can develop all those skills building models of ancient cars which were popular decades before you were born. Good marketing plan!
