Looks like AMT is planning on reissuing the 1923 Ford Model T Delivery van in 1/25.
"The Kats at AMT have resurrected another long lost favorite, the 1923 Ford Model T Delivery Van! Not only have they brought it back in Retro Deluxe™ packaging, they’ve teamed up with the folks at Nestle to create the Sweet ‘n Special Edition! The kit will feature a huge expanded decal sheet with optional markings from four of Nestle’s most recognizable and historically delicious products!"

Saw the picture of the new packaging on another forum:
Looks like the optional markings are for Nestle.

I figured there might be some interest over here. If you look closely at the box, you'll see a price sticker for Hobby Lobby on it, so I believe that it is currently available.

Could be an interesting comparison between this old AMT kit and the new offering's from ICM

I've never built the IMC kit, but I'm working on a similar AMT kit; and I can tell you that there will be no comparison!
