Hi from New Zealand

Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, April 20, 2004 4:38 AM

Hi folks, I'm a fairly small time modeller with only a few models, Deep Space 9, Escape Shuttle One from Nostromo, Kazon Raider Ship, Apache AH64A, Corvette Indy, Aston Martin DB5 and P51 Mustang III.

What I am trying to find some rubber moulds that I had when I was a kid. They were from a set called Castlebuilder and they had all the different blocks that you could use to build a scale model of any castle your imagination could conjure up!

Has anyone heard of them?

Hello and welcome to the frenzy! I see it didn't take long for cassibill to pick up on the "Trek" kits. Another lover of Trek.. Maybe we'll c ya around the SciFi forum too.
Hey cassibill, how many trek kits do You have?

Sorry Max Load, I never heard of Castle Builders. Could be just specific to your region/age group.

Has anyone heard of them?

Max the model railway club I was a member of quite a few years ago use to have a set of moulds, can't remember the name, that we used for the same purpose, so maybe a model railway specialist shop may be able to help you.

P.s Check out the Aussie Modeller thread in the the General Discussion folder as a few of your country mates run around there to.

Wayne I enjoy getting older, especially when I consider the alternative.

Welcome, maybe you might be interested in the Aussie Group Build we Aussies are doing.
You can find details in the Aussie Modellers thread in this section.

Hi Max!
Another kiwi here.Yes!......I remember Castlebuilder .........it was my sons hearts desire........he would have been about tenish.........many years ago now and sadly quite lost along the way........now I am interested in dollshouses and am on the hunt myself..........we have a set on loan but the lender wants them back(the curse of all borrowers.........a good memory!) Will keep you in mind if I find two sets!!! Please do likewise for me.
Cheers,
licorice
