Missing Instructions
Posted by allende on Monday, November 28, 2011 9:27 PM

I recently purchased Academy's 1/48 N.A. F-86F-30 Sabre, kit # 2162 from a local Hobby Lobby outlet.  Upon opening the kit I discovered there were no instructions.  Being a modeler for many years I think I could muddle through without them but I always save the istructions from completed kits and for that reason I'd like to have a set.  I e-mailed Academy's U.S. distributor and, to date, haven't gotten an answer.  Does anyone have any suggestions? 

Thanks,

Don Allen  allende2@comcast.net

Have you tried talking to the hobby shop? Sometimes a message from a business holds a bit more weight than an email from an individual. Also Hobby shops often have a person they deal with within the company, someone they've built a relationship with.

I had the same problem with a Revel Halifax a while back; I had to make a nuisance of myself with both the U.S. and German contacts but, after some time, I did get a set of instructions - keep trying.
