A big box arrived on the doorstep
Posted by T26E4 on Wednesday, November 2, 2011 7:35 AM

.... from the Far East with five models (2x Tasca Shermans, 1/24 Tasca Pz II F, AFV Club Valentine Mk I, Tamiya Matilda II) and a specialty accessory inside.  It feels like Christmas morning but I hate how my thoughts of those kits pushes aside the ongoing projects I currently have!  Modelling schizophrenia!

I hear ya!!  My Tamiya M2A2 Bradley is in a holding pattern until Tamiya gets off it's collective butt and starts shipping out their paints again!  In the mean time, my two new Wiesel 2s came in over the weekend!

I tore open the shrink wrap like a pit-bull on a poodle! 

While I don't have the massive stashes some of you guys have, I still practically go catatonic trying to choose what to do next!  Tongue Tied

  Modelling schizophrenia!

If you want to equate your modeling habits with a mental defect a more appropriate analogy in your case would be to use, Multiple Personality Disorder.  Schizophrenia is often confused with it although the two disorders couldn't be more different...just sayin'...

I came home from a trip yesterday to find my Dragon Jagdpanther Early and SdKfz 7/1 Armored Cab plus two books on my desk.

My affliction is more like Gluttony.  No matter how much I have I want MORE MORE MORE!  Big Smile

Sounds like a good haul Roy but don't let new-kit-envy cause you to abandon your other worthy build/projects already in progress! Big Smile

Nah.  The contents are for an "in kind" exchange for some work I did for a modeling concern.  The AFV Club Valentine looks sweet on the sprues -- the only kit I've been examining closely is that 1/24 Pz II F.
