Great scores!  There's a similar situation in a store about 80 miles south of me.  I stop by when I'm through town and two weeks ago he's closing up shop.  He's mainly a gaming shop (Warhammer etc.) but has old and new kits as well.  I resisted the 50% off as there wasn't anything I "needed" to have.

A hobby shop about 10 miles from me is officially closing tomorrow (Mar. 20th) I had no idea they were closing up or I would have went sooner. All kits were 50% off, and as such had been picked over pretty good. They specialized in trains so didn't really have a large selection of styrene. I still did pretty well.

My take:

1:32 Tamiya F-16C/J Fighting Falcon loaded with goodies. (This thing is freaking HUGE.)

1:35 Tamiya T34/76 "ChTZ" Version.

1:35 Tamiya M1A1 Abrams with Mine Plow.

1:35 Academy M1A1 Abrams 2003 Iraq Version.

1:35 Trumpeter Challenger 2, Iraq 2003

1:35 Dragon Firefly Vc

Also 20 assorted bottles of Tamiya acrylics and MM enamels and 3 Hot Wheels for my youngest sons Easter Basket. 

The damage? 195.00 and some change. Yay MeParty [party].

I didn't post this to gloat (well, maybe a little). I'm starting to find out that it pays to search out things like this.

Regards,

Jeff
