HEY,
No, the only question is what will happen on Monday? Now, there is no way you need all of those kits. lol

My question is: Are you married?
My wife would have a fit if I bought that many models in one week. Big Smile [:D] Wink [;)]

All of these I won a little over 2 weeks ago, they just decided to all come in together... I think the grand total was $189.45 after shipping and everything....

Mike V: NO, I'm not married, but the fiancee is starting to ask questions...even though she's in Minneapolis and I'm down in Norfolk, Virginia...

I'm done for now...well, I have 5 or 6 kits coming next week, but they're all older kits (Monogram planes, a couple of Tamiya armor kits)... and I swear I'M DONE.... I have enough now to keep me busy for a VERY VERY long time. Big Smile [:D]

Unless your are a very unusual modeler, I would almost guarantee you'll be buying models within months if not weeks. Its a variant of the disease known as modeling. Sorry about that.

Matt you can send that A-20 Havoc to,IN CARE OF.....,All joking aside,good for you.Also when I have trouble making up my mind on what to build,I start a poll and the one with the most post wins.Then I build and have fun with it.In your case I would post the pics and then ask the question of which one would you build.As for me I would vote for the Brittish scout car,it looks like you can do a lot with it.Digger

Looks like you are in the advanced stages of BMKS (Buy More Kits Syndrome) and the postoffice/FedEx/UPS have done their duty and delivered your next round of meds courtesy of your favorite online pharmacies! Now if you could only get your insurance to cover them with a decent copay, you'd be set! Smile [:)]

Very good week indeed. I have been banned from bringing any more int he house until I get more built. Of coarse I did remind her that she had more unbuilt than I do, still did'nt help my cause though.
