Who wants this one?!

MPC announces “Home Alone” for 2026!

MPC is casin’ the neighborhood later this year with an upcoming new model kit of the Home Alone ’86 Dodge Ram Van piloted by the infamous Wet Bandits.

This release will feature new tooling, including a 1986 grille, headlights and bumpers, plus running boards, wheels, ladder, and a roof rack loaded with plumbing equipment.

The kit will come in eye-catching packaging with an all-new illustration showcasing the Wet Bandits ride in all its grimy details. Of course, the decal sheet also includes all the OH-KAY Plumbing decals to build it as an exact on-screen replica.

2026 will be your chance to lock up the Wet Bandits yourself! Stay tuned as we update you on their next move!

Due Q3 2026.

Good morning, GeekOut family!

With the winter weather heading our way, we want to keep everyone in the loop about our plans for the weekend.

We’ll be open for our regular hours today, and Friday Night Magic is still happening as scheduled. Tomorrow (Saturday), the café will open at 9am and the hobby shop at 10am. We expect to close around 4pm, unless the snow arrives earlier than predicted. As of now, we plan to remain closed on Sunday. Once the roads are safe again, we’re aiming to reopen Tuesday morning.

Please take good care of yourselves over the next few days. Check in on friends and neighbors, stay warm, and stay safe. We’re grateful for this community, and we look forward to seeing you back at the café soon.
