revell 1/48 b-24d

JJFlyer

hello,

today I looked on Amazon at a revell b24 that I've had my eye on and it said it was unavailable. I also checked the hobbytown USA website and it said it was discontinued. does anyone know (other than eBay where I can get a revell 1/48 b24d at the original price of $50?

thanks in advance

Jamie

While I don't believe this is the absolute end of Monogram's 1/48 multiengined airplane kits, I agree that others are probably panicking now and that will help drive up prices of remaining retail stocks.  I suggest, though, that rather than looking online, you visit any hobby shops near you.  As someone else mentioned, HobbyLobby carries Revell-Monogram kits, as does HobbyTown as you know.  Michael's and AC Moore do, too.  You may find the kit in stock there.  I would look at any local, non-chain hobby shop that might be in your area, too.  HobbyLobby and Michael's both offer standing discounts-Michael's is usually 40%, and I think HL's is, too.  I don't know about AC Moore.

If you see it on eBay buy it. These aren't going to ever be reissued.

Revell has been in bankruptcy court.  Read the other threads in this forum and the FSM Ready Room.  No kits being made.  If you find a kit you want in hobby shops, stores, or whatever, you'd better pick it up now.

 

True.  I figure Revell and Monogram kit prices will soon be on the upswing.
