Walked into the local Kmart this morning, past the model section, what do I see? Current reissue Tom Daniel kits! Red Baron, Street Fighter, Tijauna Taxi and Romels Rod, priced at about $18 each. They also carry real Testors red tube cement now too.

I thought the big boxes had all turned their backs on us. That is a good sign.

Yea, I saw them in the K-Mart here a couple weeks ago. It was great seeing them all on the shelf there again after all these years. It sure brought back some fond memories.

MODELS? At Kmart? I thought, like Walmart, they had quit carrying any models- I hadn't seen any for a long time now.

Not in Fairfax, VA either. But I only checked one store. I did find some mark down Revell Universal Monster kits at another one in the fall. I'll have to check there.

The Red Baron, Streetfighter and Tijuana Taxi finally showed up at the Kmart in New Hope, MN, and for $17.99 -- at least I'm guessing that, no prices on the boxes themselves, and just put on the shelf with that price marked with "Retro Rods" on the price tag. No Mongoose Duster.
Also saw the Revell Snap-Tite Darth Vader Tie-Fighter in the clearance aisle for $16, but no other models.

our Kmart has always had models, but they were like three different cheap looking Testors models. I'll have to check and see if they got the good stuff in yet

They restocked.
This round: Circus Wagon, Beatnik Bandit, Ice-T and T-Rantula!
Sorry for the guys who checked and found nothing... I'm guessing, if there's a model section, these sould be showing up soon if they haven't already.
