I Remember This
Posted by tankerbuilder on Friday, September 4, 2015 12:22 PM

One day many years ago .

    My supervisor said the main office gave permission to hang models from the store ceiling . At the time Wal - Mart did Not sell Groceries either ! Now to the subject .The kit that first wound up up there was a REVELL 1/32 scale F-15 " Strike Eagle " with Conformal fuel tanks and Scads of armament .Do you'all remember that one . Funniest way to mold a kit I thought .

     Why Funny ? Well ,  the pieces were molded top to bottom in halves , then forward of the intakes was the normal way . At the time I thought it was odd .  But you know what ? Here , all these years later the thing is still in one piece after almost forty five years. Sure the Decals are almost toast , But I still love that big bad Bird hanging over my head .

 How many of you remember building that kit ? And How many of you remember buying it and the paint at the above named store ?    T.B.
