Matt T. Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 In regards to the Model King version, any idea which online hobby shops might be offering them? Can one buy direct from Dave B. at The Model King? I am going to want a couple of them as well as the long bed version. Model King Dave always has a big table at NNL East. I wonder if he'll debut the '69 F100 there on Saturday?
Dave Metzner Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Both of the Ford Pickups are finished - and in production they are scheduled to ship from the factory on 4/28 - so they ought to show up in stores late May - early June.
mk11 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Thanks for keeping us tuned in sir. Bet you're glad to have that one off the table... mike
tbill Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Sweet! Hope production is going to be a big batch, as I don't see these hanging around for long....

Great news. How's that new 1/72 "Cold War" submarine coming along? I've heard rumors on a ship building forum. I can only hope it's a 637 long hull, though a short would do in a pinch. I'm looking forward to finally building a Moebius model, either the Ford pickups or a Sturgeon.

That is great news Dave! I now have to start saving my lunch money in earnest so I can afford my half dozen of each!
my80malibu Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 I have just seen pictures of the new 71 longbed in its packaging on Facebook. Lots of stuff in the box. With a first week in June expected delivery date.

kelson Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Boy that looks good! I can't wait to snag a few of these.
Platerpants Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 finally some hope, been waiting forever for it
martinfan5 Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Gotta admit, I am sort of starting to want to get one, but I am already over extended for June releases from Japan
Krazy Rick Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 I ordered some parts from Moebius Models & asked when to expect the new 71 Ranger, the parts came yesterday with a note saying look for the pickup in May 2015. So there you have it, straight from... May 2015 ....... ...... that means it should be on the shelves in Canada by no later than October 2017
Mr Stock Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 May 2015 ....... ...... that means it should be on the shelves in Canada by no later than October 2017 And in the UK by............................umm ....................never !, Ill have to import one of these bad boys, looks like its more than worth the wait
gasman Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Is the Model King version due at the same time. I want to use the straight six out of the model king version in the long bed, and turn the short bed version into a "gas monkey" style rat rod truck
Dave Van Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Is the Model King version due at the same time. I want to use the straight six out of the model king version in the long bed, and turn the short bed version into a "gas monkey" style rat rod truck That 240/300 six cyl is great!!! I;ve seen both kits........the 240 6 cyl will land in a number of Late Model Sportsman racers from the 70's....the cars were unbeatable!
mikemodeler Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Is the Model King version due at the same time. I want to use the straight six out of the model king version in the long bed, and turn the short bed version into a "gas monkey" style rat rod truck Modelroundup shows both kits with the same due dates. I am anxious to get my hands on a couple!
Platerpants Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Finally have both on order. I think I have a Ford truck obsession.
Whelen36 Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 I have them both ordered from mega hobby as well, good to see they're both due at the same time, Is there any chance that there are 4x4 versions in the works too???
Matt T. Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 I think there will be 4x4s in the future. Early shots of the sprues opened up showed some 4x4 parts.
thatz4u Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Model King '69 Shorty... Nice, can't wait to get one
Austin T Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I kinda want to do a 69 long bed,looks like I'm going to need to get both.
Dave Van Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I kinda want to do a 69 long bed,looks like I'm going to need to get both. But think of all the 'mix and match' you can do!!! LOL
