I don't have a Rite Aid in my AO, would someone be willing to send me a pair of them? Thank you

I am kind of thinking of trying to get one myself.

Does Rite locate products like Wal-Mart ?

There are lots and lots of Rite Aids in my AO but I have not been on the hunt.

Do these things have sku #'s ?

Pickel,
If you can't get grunt taken care of let me know, We got a rite aid up here that had them a few weeks ago, the only thing is all the junk that comes with it and it's a good size box, I would not have a problem taking the tank out and putting it a little box and shipping it, I can do that from my shop, but the big box it comes in I can't mail it from the shop , so I would have to dig up a box to mail it in, then go to the post office, about 35 miles round trip, ( I live in the sticks )... and it's too much sugar for a dime...If you know what I mean, besides I started building one a while back, a lot of grinding, hole patching, I had to make it wider, longer, hell you had to gut it like a fish, the gun's all wrong, I had to build a chassis, replace the floor, cast the wheels for it and the you have the track problem just like the Hetzer, and Marder which I have had a little success making the early tracks to work with the wheels, Molding these ain't nothing but a mess, I got tired of fooling with it, I just put it all in a box stuck it on a shelve, A complete scratch build would have been easier, faster and saved a lot of time, But if you just want to repaint what’s there and go with it you’ll be in business.

WOW

I here you loud and clear. Looks like I have to rethink this.

Thanks for the input Hun.

Hey Matt,
I sorry , I would not want to discourage any one from getting one, they are pretty neat, and repainted with some detail it would look pretty cool in the back ground of a diorama, or like General Blasto doing, I think he's going to repaint his and put them on flat cars with tarp’s for his train layout and that would be cool, heck any kind of new vehicle in 1/18 is better than nothing and I’ll get around to finishing mine one day, but to bring one up to speed and make into a nice 1/18 turn key custom, a lot of WORK would be involved.
