There are a few that I'm missing that I gotta have someday.

- 1:72 B-52D...Had one of the "Big, Bad, and Beautiful" line years ago that got lost in a move.

How the hell can you lose that thing, its huge. I picked up one last year. The first one i had, which was partly built, was badly damaged over the years through moving around. What i would really like is a decent Cockpit for it. I got my second one just as Goffy went out of buisness.

There are a few kits on my to buy list that are easy enought to. Two i really would like to get hold of, both in 72nd, are a DFS 230, can't find the Huma kit anywhere. And a Ju 87C, kit or conversion.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

 

On the bench: Airfix 1/72nd Harrier GR.3/Fujimi 1/72nd Ju 87D-3

- 1:48 Shinden.

- Hasegawa's 1:72 VF-11B Thunderbolt

- Hasegawa's VF-22 with Max Sterling's markings ( though I may just custom-paint a YF-21 for that )

- The new Evangelion kits based on the movie.

- The really nice 1:350 Space Battleship Yamato kit with the lights, motorized turrets, etc.

- Memphis Belle

- Mi-24A ( the ones with bubble canopies are all over the place, I want that "Red Dawn" look )

I still need a T2V SeaStar (I have a T-33 to convert, but, haven't looked at what that would entail, yet)

I need to get an F-111 kit to use my Revell parts on to make an F-111B Naval version

and I still need to get a "decent" F-15 kit to use the ASAT and decals from my Esci kit

if someone were to do an XNQ-1, and an injected SNC and NR-1, I would snap those up, too,,,,,a Timm's trainer wouldn't go to waste either,,,,,,,,,a BTK to go with the AM, AD , and all the AD ancestor kits that were done would look cool too,,,as of now, if you are willing to do vac conversions and resin kits in a mix with injected plastic,,,,the whole group from BTD/TB2D/SB2D on up to XA2D-1 is possible,,,,,,except for the BTK, and I think the BTK was the best looking of the whole bunch

 

shrug,,,,,lots of build time yet, before those,  for me, though,,,,,these are not exactly mainstream aircraft, lol

Built both kits as a child but neither survived the first move.

Still waiting for a re-release - especially of the Renwall- as "collector prices" are rediculously high.

I was just reading the most unbuilt in the stash.  That got me going with what is not in the stash that you want.  Or better yet, what haven't you built that you want to.  For me I need a 1966 Charger and a 1963 Split window Corvette.  For aircraft a Boston ( A-20 for you Yanks).  Typhoon ( the current and the WW2),  I need a F-22,  and a F-35 once they are in service. There are others but these come to mind the quickest.
