How big is your model stash?

Thousands, mainly armor, but hundreds of A/C, sci-fi and heck, I have more GM car kits than your listed stash, and I don't really build cars. Yes, that's just counting GM car kits off the top of my head and not all car kits.

I'm still a tad young so I have lots of stash acquiring to do but as of right now I have close to 100 kits with about 70 being aircraft.

about 20

I have something in the neighbourhood of 30+ kits, all aircraft in 1/48 and 1/32 scale. Not a huge stash by most people's standards, but I WILL build every last one of them!

I've lost count, probably around 1000 kits. If I stacked them all up it would probably make a pile 4 feet tall, 4 feet wide and 8 feet long (lots if 1/72). My stash is really nothing special. Some of these guys have storage units full, one guy has a semi trailer parked out behind his house full of kits.

Rob has posted pics of his stash and I've seen nice hobby shops with less.

15 kits is quite reasonable, nothing to feel guilty about.

Currently 12.

you have nothing to worry about till it looks like this...

even then...you have nothing to worry about...least of all what you are going to build next...

Big enough to last me the rest of my natural life, and then some. My survivors can sell the reast off!

my stash is about 100+. some of these  where for training so i have around 70+ works of art and i have when through ALOT of paints. i spent $1000+ on the best hobby know to man.

100+... Dunno how many off the top of my head... Armor, aircraft mostly, with a sprinkling of cars and Sci-Fi... I got about 30-40 figure sets as well, but I don't count them as kits since I "Frankenstein" my figures into poses I want using parts from all of them... They're more like acessories..

Love it when these threads come up, I have 25. My build rate= Buy rate.

oh about 200 or so, but hey I'm a few months shy of 26 so I got time.

My stash is about 1,500 or so kits. Two of my sons have almost 4,000 between them. No one I know started out to be a collector. When I see a kit I like I buy it, saying I will get to build it someday. Suddenly people like me have more than we can possibly build. Some of my kits include factory sealed Aurora and Strombeck models.

424 aircraft

121 ships

50 or so weapons sets, ground equip sets and conversions

makes up into 800 or so finished models, one day

(I had to get creative with SWMBO, the F-4B with fire tractor only "counts" as one new model, lol)

Right around a hudred. 1 car, 1 tank, 4 helos, the rest airplanes.

I have about 25, but I JUST started collecting them in December, so I guess my pace is pretty high, lol. I can stare at the box art of some of them for hours. I am quite certain that I won't build about 99% of what I have, and if I do decide to build something in particular, I'll probably buy a duplicate. Some of the collections you guys have are amazing! I'll get there someday.

My stash is directly proportional to the number of builds I have on the bench at any one time, at a constant fixed ration of 1:1.

I onle ever have one build on the bench! I think my stash was larger when I was 10, at about 20 or 30.

This pic is a few weeks old, but I have 30 or so and counting. I think I have at least 5 more somewhere in transit.

I have about 300 unbuilts in the stash.  Mostly 1/48 Aircraft.

Currently sitting at 3821 unbuilt (and I'm the one with the semi-trailer  )

Let's see more pics of these stashes! I love too see other people's stashes. I currently stand at about thirty but they are in storage right now. I gotta see that semi trailer!

Right now it stands at roughly 70 which, given my age and current rate of completion is, according to my calculations, about 50 too many.

 Over 2,000 counting figure sets.  Mostly armor, and quite a few aircraft, ships and sci-fi.  I did post some pics last year when this subject came up before.  Just imagine a 800 sq.ft. basement with several walls lined with shelving, floor to ceiling model kits. I love it!  I also build 2-4 a month, Last year I got 35 done,  I've built over 800 kits in the last 45 years, maybe more.  I only have about 300 still around.  It's a life, not a hobby.  Fortunatly, I cured myself of AMS years ago. Just wasn't worth the effort, and when you have a lot of models, who really cares if every widget is right.

Keep on adding!

Double D 

Bronto,,,,you are my "safety valve" with the lady of the house

as long as I have less than you have in that trailer,,,,I'm somewhat okay

we discuss the stash size from time to time, but we don't argue about it,,,,sometimes I agree to trade some kits or sell off a few before I buy more,,,,,but, it's never a big deal because "hey, one guy has almost 4,000 in a semi trailer, hun",,,,,great card to be able to play, lol

Glad I could be of help!!  Keep in mind also, the number doesn't count figures, or any aftermarket items, or books, or decal sets...................Maybe I just need to get professional help.

Only about 20 at the moment.  Four ships, one tank and the rest are aircraft.

Here's a pic of mine. I <3 my Tiger tanks, lol. I don't have a lot of kits (yet). I have a few in transit right now (ebay junkie). Some of the oddball ones I got for a song, like $5 or whatever.

4, plus one on the way.

I have a 1/35 SA-6, a 1/35 SZU-23-4, a 1/48 Mosquto, a 1/48 EA-6A and on it's way, a 1/32 X-15-A2. 

That will be all, until they're finished.

That's a pretty juicy stack right there!

The Excel spreadsheet tells me that today the tally is:

210 Armor (mostly 1/35, some 1/48, 1/72, and 1/144)
6 Helicopters (all 1/35)
190 Aircraft (mostly 1/48, some 1/32, 1/72, and 1/144)
2 Ships
2 Cars
130 Figures.

Not too shabby. I should be able to build them all before I die!
