[QUOTE="Analyzer, post: 5317799, member: 189502"] Hobby Lobby carries the Revell snap kits (in addition to a hand full of the Bandai kits) Although it has been a while since the sequels so they may not have restocked those kits You can usually find them cheap on line while they are still in production, but once the Revell kits are out of production, or the big stores stock dries up they seem to be treated like they are made out of precious metals and people start asking ridiculous prices on line for them The other thing that does not help for people in the states is Revell of USA went bankrupt a couple years ago and I think most Revell Star Wars kits are now just European releases from Revell of Germany I am not sure if this is because people assume anything "collectible" from Star Wars carries big prices, or if this is just a model kit thing in general, or a bit of both I can say it is frustrating seeing SW kits listing for hundreds of dollars compared to what is actually in the box as most of their Star Wars kits are barely above toy level detail Although they are nice kits for kids, or people that like to do a quick build, but not paint etc... But those people are not paying collectors prices for them either [/QUOTE]
