I believe that all the Euro Hobby shops bought all the first run kits before they could be shipped to the U.S.....Revell did say the first run was SOLD OUT.....man! I thought that at least 'some' U.S. dist would get a few!!

OR!

It was planned that way cuz with the 'new' price the U.S. cost would be that much more?

Straighten up and fly right.....

Aren't we just a bundle of joy and "good" news.Tongue [:P]Sad [:(]

You have to forgive our friend. Like most of us in the states, he's getting antsy at waiting for our U-boats.Tongue [:P]Evil [}:)]

And it's a little unnerving to hear you guys across the pond are already getting them.[:0]
