Our Latest Acquisitions 2017-2024

Mike: Now that is a CRAZY good bargain on a great subject. Cool score! I can't get over how HL just practically gives this stuff away sometimes. To them it's just another airplane kit. If it were an auto kit they would have kept it on the shelves for years!!!!

Drifter: Really cool score on that Bf-110!!! Tricky kits to put together but well worth the amount of work!!!

RX: Dude! That is one helluva stash you've got going !!!!!!!!

RX I think you could open a hobby shop with that stash.

 

LOL , sure looks that way doesn't it. I've been doing more buying than building but I am trying hard to change that.

Don't have pix yet but I just paid for three 1/100 scale airliners. One 747, one DC-10 and one 727. Old and rare kits I have wanted since I was a kid. Now I need a hanger to put them in.

Nice hauls everyone.

A big box arrived at my door step today. Dragon USA had a moving sale and I could not resist.

Found a great deal on Ebay. Got a littel crazy with the  Trumpy Stugs.

Went to my LHS and found some markdowns, for some reason this month has been crazy good for deals all over .

Postman visited me today as well:

 

Tamiya BF109E Trop 1/48

 

 

Eduard BF110-4 1/48

 

 

And what I was waiting for the most, Eduard 1/4 BF110 Instrument panel (Limited edition). This was very very hard to find. These kits are extremely rare, not sure I must build it.

 

Nice haul.  That will keep you out of trouble for a while.

I found myself a new toy at HL. Last one on a shelf marked down from $44.99 to $17.19!

Right in my price range.  :)

 

 

I was aiming for a B-25, but this is even better. I have never had the opportunity to build a Promodeller kit. :D

 

Oh happy day! Lol

 

 

Don't you just love a bargain?

Now you can't go wrong at that price.

Nice kit for its age . . .  and I don't know of another one in 1/72.

Might need some new decals.  There's only a few required.

Nice fond on the 110 IP. I have the 109 one. If you don't feel you can build it, i know some one who will

Nice score from Sprue Bros. Dwayne. Yeah, I couldn't resist either and my Panther G should arrive tomorrow . Been wanting to add a quality Panther for quite some time and was happy to take advantage of such a good deal. Good to hear that you have a supportive wife such as I do.

In the meantime I had these masks arrive yesterday. I ordered them from DN Models in Hungary. They got here in 2 weeks so, not bad. When the time comes to build these kits I'm hoping these make my efforts much easier. Especially on the Viggen splinter pattern. Always wanted to do it. Never wanted to mask it.

Couldn't resist the Sprue Brothers half off sale, so these arrived in the mail today...

Going to be a bit before I tackle them.  Going to do more armor in my stash first.

Also got these tweezers from Megahobby for about $11.

Nice set.

Finally, I got a quick connect and holder for my airbrushes.  Comes with a regulator holder, so with the addition of a whip hose from Lowes, I now can adjust the air pressure easily.

Pretty happy with all of the purchases.  Told the Mrs. about the sale, and she said "fo for it".  Didn't have to hear that twice.

Happy model building!

That sounds cool! So when are you starting a build log? Lol :D

That Revell Stuka was the last kit I picked up before the Mrs. decided my stash was big enough lol. I'm looking forward to building that one, but it has the same markings as my Lindberg. I might have to get some AM decals for it. :P

Just got the Hurricane and paints from my LHS and the two Revells from DrugMart.  Kind of bothered VJ didn't send the exact paints as listed. Needed aluminum. Such is life. Here's hoping the two Revells can get me "made" into the Monogram Mafia. I have sworn revenge against the Barzinis', Tattaglias', and Moe Greene. 

 

 

 

 

Nice group of kits.  Looking forward to seeing these builds.  I would be pretty irritated if I bought a paint set and didn't get what I was expecting.  Fortunately, replacing the missing paints won't cost a fortune, but still, gotta wait for them, and pay more shipping.

I received the Val today. I realize there are issues with the canopy but I'm really excited about it.

 

I'm sure you will do a great job, and will fix the canopy issue.  Looking forward to seeing this build.!

Buying in bulk. Nice. What model air set is that?

 

stikpusher

Well those two are classic original Monogram molds. So yes, they will qualify you if you do as required with them.
