Dragonhawk1066 Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I actually had a few bucks to spend on model kits for the first time in a long time this week, so I hit up Ollie's and Hobby Lobby. I almost skipped Ollie's because I was over 99% sure they wouldn't have anything, but the wife talked me into stopping in. Boy am I glad she did, I grabbed a couple of the Z06 Corvette's, Viper RT/10's, a '99 SVT Mustang and she wanted the Snap-Tite Jeep Rubicon, plus everything was 15% off! There was still quite a few of the Jeep's, Ford Raptor's, 2014 Corvette Stingray's, and 2018 Mustang GT's, all Snap-Tite's, still on the shelves. After her appointment she talked me into going to HL even though most of my "allowance" was now gone and I finally snagged the new Revell 1971 442 that I had wanted badly since it's release. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just grabbed another one of these along with an MPC 1/8 Trail 70 from Spotlight Hobbies. Crazy, but the Trail 70 is getting hard to find again at reasonable prices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CabDriver Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) These are $9 on Amazon right now ($5 shipping), so I grabbed a couple: And I didn’t really need any more of these, but they were $12.99 with Prime (now back up to the more sensible $22.99): I see deals like this on Amazon fairly often - would people be interested in a thread highlighting super-cheap Amazon deals on kits? @iamsuperdan, @Xingu @Dave Ambrose and the other mods…would a thread like that be allowed? I have no commercial interest in any of these deals…just would like to share, if allowed, with fellow builders… Edited July 4, 2023 by CabDriver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWT Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Mail Call... So the last time I got this firebird, the plastic was so brittle. I was really hoping it was just that kit.... oh no... I'm pretty sure if I shook this box up there wouldn't be anything buildable in it. Bummed about it, I started working on the vette. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64SS350 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 These came in on Monday....the Mercedes came from Canada and the 3d parts are from Portugal ( ordered just over a month ago). Three sets of tires, a widebody kit for the Tamiya Mustang GT, and Ford GT. Parts look nice, but second printer I've bought from that doesn't fully cure their parts. Out in the sun they go, or time to get a UV light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 This arrived in the mail today. Nuno Porsche 911 SC Rally. Had to get the extensive detail pack too, many because it includes the actual Rothman's decals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
