Mr mopar Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Would like to see inside the box and Decals. TIA Doug
cowboysevens Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 hey doug ive got 3 on the way, ill probly have them by next weakend. im a lil curious to see what the decals look like myself, and if there is any changes to the kit.
whale392 Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) The KW123 is back out? Oh man, gotta call up my local hobby shop to see when/if they are getting any. Dads last rig was a super-sleeper version of the K123 with the Cat3408 in it! I would love to build a scale model of his rig. Now, AMT needs to re-issue the 40' Reefer and I am golden.

freightshaker Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 I just got mine on thursday from towerhobbies. The decal sheet is the old Interstate Trucking Grand Rapids Michigan set. I overlooked the kit and the chrome is nicely done. The chrome tree was pretty much the same chrome as the W925 kits and the engine is a KTA350 Cummins. I also recieved two of the reisued Fruehauf Beaded panel van trailers. They have an AMT company decal sheet as well as Round 2 logos with a kangaroo on them haha. I have started building one of the trailer as a spread axle. pics will be coming as soon as I get a new camera. Mine was broken on new years eve by a clumsy but forgiven girlfriend haha. All in all the Reissue Kenworth kit is a gem and i cant wait to get started on it.
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Bought one yesterday at a LHS.
whale392 Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Which shop, Scott? I am back and forth between Dayton and Columbus on a weekly basis.
greymack Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Hi there you still looking for a K123 I have a few coming in this week message me if interested.
lakota88 Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) I got mine this past Saturday. I bought it from Tower Hobbies. It was back ordered since end of November. I'm new to this forum but I've been building AMT truck since I was A kid (39 yrs old now) I have owned many of these kits over the years and have sold them off, or my ex-wife trashed them, thats why she's my ex. Anyway, In case anyone is interested Tower Hobbies has a few re-releases availible. They haven't changed any of the parts, decals etc. At least from what I can remember. I'm hoping that they will release the Mack Cruise liner with Ryder Truck decals. Edited February 14, 2011 by lakota88
truckman1981 Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 I ordered a case today. When i get them on Thursday I will open one and post some pics.
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) Which shop, Scott? I am back and forth between Dayton and Columbus on a weekly basis. Hobbyland at the Graceland Shopping Plaza. St.Rt. 23 N AKA High Street in Clintonville (Columbus) is where I found that kit. I haven't been to the East Broad Street Hobbyland store in Reynoldsburg (Columbus) in a few weeks so I can't say they have it. Your best bet is the next time you'll be passing thru Columbus call ahead and see if either of the stores has the kit. http://www.hobbylandstores.com/ The Graceland store has the Bill Signs 359 and the R/G W900 wrecker and several other truck kits as well. I haven't been to HobbylandUSA in a few months. They might have it, again, give'em a buzz. and find out. Edited February 15, 2011 by Semi Trailer Mechanic
