That scratching sound you hear is scribers, X-Acto blade points and photoetch saws opening up hoods on AMT '64 Comets across the land!

I hope R2 releases the 64.... I missed my chance at one

I could not find them on either Spotlight Hobby, or Model Roundup. Am I not looking in the right place?

I'd like to find one too!

[Nova-ss]

I don't think there is no Moebius 65 merc comets out yet.....Chris

I think they're talking about Model King's '64 on Spotlight, not the new Moebius one.

I'd like to find one too!

I'm not finding any either.

[Edsel-Dan]

If they are Out there, they are Hiding

Also, if there were so many, they would NOT be demanding $40.+++ when they Do show up now!!!

So yes, it IS time to be re-issued!!

 

I have one, but..........

[gtx6970]

Do you want to part with one?

I'd like to try to use a 64 Fairlane chassis on it.

Cool, I'm sending an email to my vendor!

[DaveM]

That sounds fantastic.  I am planning to grab one.  (I am not buying models any more, but I will make an exception for this one!)   Hopefully, someday they do a version with a plain Jane roofline someday.

Thank you Dave, this is just one reason why I love Moebius. They let us know what is going on. Again, Thanks.         Jeff

So, with luck, they'll hit the wholesalers about what, a week before Christmas?

Just in time. I know there will be at least one or two going out the door from my store.

I maybe one of the few who is not happy with the timing of this release. Because of buying gifts for others, my budget gets a little tight around Christmas. I'm looking forward to this kit. But, I may have to wait for mine until after the first of the year.

Well you have like a 5 week warning.  Socking away $6.50 a week from now til then covers the most egregious list pricing of $32.49, and should be less than $30 bucks, as I know my local guy sells Moebius kits for $24.50.
