I live in Atlanta, and the Hobby Lobby just off of Pleasent Hill carrys models. The last 50% off sale I bought 4 kits for under $50.

Shelby Series One - Revell/Germany
Corvette C5-R - Revell
1959 Corvette 3 n 1 - Revell
Yamaha Roadstar 1600 - Tamiya

They had a decenct amount of other kits available too.
I'm on my way to see what they've got now..

I was at that one last week (buying 1/2 price paint brushes), it never has the selection of a couple other stores in the area, but it did have more than usual-last sale the pickings were slim at that store. The store out in Lawrenceville off of 316 (on 120 near the Gwinnett Med. Ctr.) has a much better selection. The store in Acworth (on Bells Ferry Rd.) has the biggest/best selection of all, but it's way far away from me on the other side of town. It does pay to look around at various stores, at least in Atlanta where there are about 8 or 10 Hobby Lobby's in the vicinity.

Unfortunately, the only Tamiya models they had were the Lotus Europa and the Jeep Cherokee. Hopefully there will be some others at another store.

Which store did you go to? cause the one i went to did also.

I went to the one on Hwy 249 & Michel in Tomball. And then the one at Jones Rd & FM1960. That one had the Focus WRC 2001. What I'm really looking for is the Porsche GT3 and Ferrari 360. I've seen them at Hobbylobby before, but would never pay the original $35. I'm going to try the one at Hwy 6 & Clay Rd. tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Sucks for me as I'm in Jersey
I guess I have to be happy with the 25% off AC Moore offers on occassion.

OT: did anyone notice the locations of the Hobby Lobby stores are mostly in tornado and hurricane (if there is such a thing) alley? kinda makes ya think doesnt it? (well, made me think anyways)

Thanks to this board I headed over there with my three sons today!
What great deals!
I still need to pick up the Porsche GT yet.
My Oldest son (11) picked out the RM Corvette Z06, My middle son (9) picked out the AMT 55 Nomad, my youngest (8) picked out the S'cool Bus and I think I got the best deal, the Revell of Germany Shelby Series 1, for $5.50. The tag on the box said $10.99 the other boxes said $27.50!
I was a happy guy.
I'll be heading back there by weeks end to get that Porsche and maybe the Focus Rally car.

Crossed fingers do work. Hit the Hobby Lobby near home, found the Porsche GT3 and Ferrari 360 I was looking for. Unfortunately, someone had ransacked the 360 kit (box open, stuff missing). But I did get the GT3 for $14. For those in Houston, they still have one left, if anyone is interested.

i went today and picked me up some, 3 ITR, 2 civic Si's, and 1 civic hatchback

[JeffForSale!]

Last time i checked the only Tamiya models they had were some motorcycles and military models, all the cars were Revell or ugly riced up crap from Testors

[tdoty]

I picked up 7 kits this morning and a couple diorama goodies for a total of $49.07!

Revell '31 Model A Sedan (I seem to have quite a Model A collection going right now????)
Revell '71 GTX
Revell '70 Chevelle (a great kit to slam together! Paint it and forget it, lol)
Revell '63 Vette Roadster (hadda have it)
AMT '78 LRT
Polar Lights Ecto 1 (#3 - got a hearse and a flower car, this one will likely end up as a limo)
Revell '56 Chevy Del Ray (another?????)


Looked long and hard at the Tamiya Grand Cherokee, but couldn't figure out what I'd do with it. The other Tamiya kits were the Porsche 911 GT? (don't remember), the Lotus Europa, Focus WRC and a bunch of bikes.

My local Hobby Lobby doesn't have a great selection, but they're better than one of the local hobby shops! Lots of AMT kits, but I've been picking up lots of AMT stuff from Wally for $4.94! They didn't have the Supra or Eclipse anyway, and no Civic coupes either .

I was hoping for their 1/3 off sale, doing the happy dance over 1/2 off!

how long is the sale going on? i might have to stop by. i was thinking about doing the 911 GT3 kit, and possibly a tamiya bike, and if i can get them for 50% off, i might just have to do that.
