I can't believe it but Hobby Lobby is having their models on 1/2 off again already. http://www.hobbylobby.com/site3/weekly/specials/specials.cfm

All right you guys in Colorado Springs, I'd really like one of the DML Fireflies. I plan on being there when they open Monday. If you beat me in the door can you save one for me?

I was out yesterday stocking up on some paint, eyeing the Firelfy myself. I am on vacation this week and plan to be there early Monday as well.
Hopefully they are having this sale to make room for more new DML kits, late version 3-in-1 Tiger, 88, etc.

Still, getting a 3-in-1 early Tiger and a Firefly for $32 bucks ain't a bad deal at all.

Shaun

Rodger, While you are there, if you happen to find one of the new 88's would you please grab one for me? Not sure what time I have to work tomorrow, so you might be ok... heh heh. Is there anything else you are after? I'll keep my eyes open as well. Thanks. "Q"

Thank goodness I'm not in Colorado Springs, because I want to pick up one of the Firefly's too!

At least my Hobby Lobby had three in stock last week when I was there. Hopefully they won't be sold out by the time I can get there after work tomorrow.

t-72 and the 251 D

Wonder if they stll have the Tiger P

Can one of my American Brothers help a poor Canuck out LOL. We dont have hobby lobby IF someone can snag me a DML FIrefly( or a DML M4a1 early) and Tamiya M4 Early I can of course pay via paypal..Thanks in advance..anyone?
Cheers,
Bryan

That's a bummer. The Hobby Lobby close to me doesn't carry the DML line!

Reply to all:

Max, they had a 251 D, I think, yesterday when I was out there. How early do you get up? I'll race you out there. I don't need it so I will hide it for you. (Max and I live in the same town) And no, no Tiger (P).

Byran, They had one Firefly out there yesterday. If it is still there when I get there there I'm snagging it. It's yours at my cost.

Jeff, Max and I live in the back waters of Indiana, Marion. It really sucks that your local doesn't carry the DML kits.

Shaun

Ill be up around 9ish so, when they open, IF you want, we could meet up

Ill hide your kits behind the Huge titanic.
and Ill hide Bryan Firefly also :-)

so by the time i leave Ho Lo there will be no more tanks to be seen :-)

EDIT,
Nope I just realized i got some Tennis Clinic in Kokomo so i wont be home till 10:30-11

I'm not doing too great financially, bbut, with all the stuff that Hob Lob is starting to carry now, It's worth an early AM trek out there to see if they might have something I need. Who knows, they may goof and have an early version T34 or (gulp) even a North Carolina

Thanks guys..Whoever can help me out with that is aces in my books..I appreciate the help lads..really.
Cheers,
Bryan

Bryan

send me a message...we'll work a swap for Timmy's

Dave

I guess patience for those who wait Shaun. I'll take a look tomorrow but in the meantime, good luck on the Firefly!


Jeff

The funny thing is I was just in HL on Saturday night right before they closed and said to my wife that they had a nice selection of DML stuff now and I can't wait for the half off sale. Well, didn't have to wait long. lol I'll be heading there at 9 this morning and I know they had a Firefly there, I'll pick up all that I can and will see if there's anything extra I get that someone else wants.

Thanks for the heads up. I know where I am going for lunch. Now to make 3 hours go by quickly.

Bryan,

Have your Firefly. PM me your addy. 17 bucks plus whatever it costs to get it there.

Shaun

Well I got the Firefly, and also the T34/76 early. I was the first modeler in the door, but two others from our local club were there before I left. We're such addicts.

I was really tempted to get an Early Tiger for trading purposes, but I wanted to give others a chance to buy it to actually build. If they still have any left by Saturday I might still get one.


EDIT Oops, not the T34 Early but the T34 1941. Still it's my first Soviet armor.

This morning I picked up the Dragon King Tiger Late Production and the Dragon Panzerkampfwagen VI(P)..for under $40.00!!!!

Just got back. Got the Firefly for $19.
Almost got the T-34. May have to go back. HAHAHAHAHA
Got the First Lady an antique china cabinet this past weekend so I'm in the clear big time.

Picked up the DML King Tiger at one store and scored the new Monogram release of the F-18E at another store. The Hornet is looking very nice and for $10 I'm glad I didnt pass on it. Recessed panel lines, extensive wheel well detailing etc. More stuff to add to the "To Do" pile once we get moved. "Q"

I picked up the Hasegawa 1/32 Fw-190A8 and Dragon Firefly Vc.. Also scooped up some 1/2 off paint brushes..
Now all I need is the 1/32 Hasegawa Bf-109G4 which may be at another Hobby lobby in my AO..

They didn't have that T-34 kit here, but lots of everything else Dragon. They also were carrying the Trumpeter Liberty ship and the gigantic Revell U-boot. Have everything I needed so only gat a modern accessory kit to go with my Hummveesfor $4.85 with tax. But, they are increasing their ship and Armor section so maybe next time something will show up. They seem to be having these sales at 6 week intervals, so look a week or two before Labor Day.for ads.

IAt lunch I picked up three Tamiya Hummers, an Academy 1/32 F-18, DML Abrams Panther, and an MRC 1/48 CH-46.
Good Times. A thousand more kits and I'll be closer to Rob G. !

ugh... too bad Hobby Lobby doesn't extend to the NY states............

Picked up the Initial Production 3 in1 Tiger today. Just under $18. Gotta like that. There are a ton of parts in this monster in plastic, metal and PE. Not sure about the new soft Dragon Styrene figgies though. I only stopped in 1 of 4 Hobby Lobby stores around here and they had one of each of the typical Dragon kits that have been spotted on the shelf lately (Firefly, King Tiger, T-34 etc....) Same Tamiya kits that are always around. Happy Hunting!
