I was thinking about having a Labor Day sale. All products made by American labor would be on sale. That would include Atlantis Models, Bob Smith Adhesives, Excel Tools, Mission Model paints, Salvino’s JR Models, and Tru-Color paints. Rather a short list. Let’s just take the day off! Hobby Depot will be closed on Labor Day, September 7th. We hope you have a pleasant, relaxing, and safe holiday.

Eduard's Royal Hybrid 1/32 P-51B Mustang is in stock. Interesting kit. The fuselage, wings, horizontal stabs, control surfaces, and clear parts are injection molded styrene plastic. Everything else is 3D printed resin. The second photo is the parts in the box. The white boxes contain the 3D printed parts. Each main landing gear bay consists of 3 parts. The third picture shows one of those parts. The book that comes in the box has 112 pages and weighs 1.25 pounds.
