Squadron is running a special on the new Tamiya Ford GT for $39.59.

They are also running an additional sale on larger kits.

They are a local shop for me. I only wish they had a walk-in store.

So you can’t order and pick up??
They probably didn’t want any modelling groupie weirdos hanging around in their parking lot
...ummm :think:

Yes, I do pick up. I just can't see what they have in the warehouse. They only open the warehouse for direct sale once a year during EagleQuest (their model show). They also run a "all you can grab in 5 minutes" type of contest I think. Boy would that be fun to win!

I normally order early in the morning and pickup the next day. When I needed something quickly I just emailed one of their employees and asked if I could pick up the same day. My order was then ready in a matter of minutes. I just wouldn't do that very often as that is a bridge I certainly don't want to burn!

Everyone I have met there has been incredibly kind and helpful. Their pricing is good (perhaps not as good as Amazon) but they run great sales all the time. I just hope they don't move. Hard to beat that selection ~ 5 minutes away from my house!
