Well I know that there are two hobby shops at least in my area full of Athearn Blue Box. I can walk in either one right now and find what I am looking for.I dont believe for one second the "I cannot get this..." baloney from a hobby shop or anyone else. If they cannot, I will off the internet. Now if it is OUT of PRODUCTION.. ok fine I can accept that.I dont know what my store makes with profit on the kits but every little bit is welcome. I prefer to do my business in the store and maybe the day I need something, they will still be in the business.But I gotta tell ya, there is alot of challenges with these basic kits and from the looks of the upcoming 60th anniversary, I think Horizion and Athearn will do well.If they did stop selling these kits and force beginners to start off with more kits with smaller itsy bitsy peices... I think it will be a bad thing. So I have reason to believe that they will still produce the kits long after some of us has passed over to the other side.
