Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Wow, plasticjunkie, congrats to you! And, what a coincidence as my stepdaughter is also expecting and the due date is MY birthday! Whaaaaaat ???? My wife is beside herself with joy and anticipation.

Now, we have maybe 2 yrs to get our models stowed up and outta reach, right?

Thanks tons guys for the well wishes. It feels like only yesterday when I was holding my son in that delivery room and 26 years later he's going to be a Dad. Time certainly does fly by!

Congratulations on the latest additions to your families, gents - grandchildren truly are a blessing! Cherish the time you get to spend with them because they don't stay small for very long. Now, both of you get to working on those kits to help decorate the babies' rooms!

Toast Congratulations guys. We have 10 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild. Great for wiffleball games at family get-togethers. Lots of great cards on Fathers day and Mothers day, especially the hand written ones.
