I haven't seen any new WS buildings this year at Menards. Have they ended that line in favor of the wood buildings? Too bad, I was looking forward to their take on the IGA store.

I have the iga on order. they are not in yet. whether they will also stock them I do not know.
Have you checked their website and/or called Menards HQ for status? Just a thought.
Since Menards is doing their own buildings now, I kind of doubt that they will be carrying Woodland Scenic.
@ wb47, where did you see that? Checked the web site, just saw Woodland Scenics leftover from previous years.
John, we are offering the IGA for $94.96 plus shipping. The Woodland Scenics original, with lights, and not Menards ads all over it. We have about 20 left.
We we also have all of the other Woodland Scenics buildings in stock. Just call the shop for one of them.
Our local Mendard's has the gas station, which I thought was a Woodland Scenics building, but could be wrong.
All,
The OP is asking whether or not Mernards is still releasing versions of the new Woodland Scenics buildings released this year. In past years, Menards would release versions of the new Woodland Scenics buildings in the year those new buildings were released. So last year, there was a Door Factory and a version of the Department Store. This year, you would expect a version of the IGA store and the Irish pub.
Instead, Menard's only Woodland Scenics building this year is a version of last year's Ethyl's Gas Station. It appears as though their current focus is releasing their own buildings first and maybe through in a Woodland Scenics building from the past year. So next year we may be able to expect a version of the grocery store or Irish pub.
I think this is more fair to the LHS because Menard's is not stealing sales for the new Woodland Scenics buildings at the lower price Menard's is able to sell them for.
