Our Latest Acquisitions 2017-2024

Still waiting on the arrival of the Bismarck and Indy from Squadron, but finally downloaded other pics, enjoy.

The Pacific B-17E from Academy.

The versions included in the decal sheet.

The other two I have picked up from two different LHS's

While I have a couple of other armor kits, this one will be my first build over on the dark side. Is a fairly easy one from the looks with the rubber band tracks, so a good way to get my feet wet, before I tackle the IMC and Dragon kits on the shelf.

Well, that old Panther is certainly one way to wet your feet, especially when it comes to painting and weathering. And i'll be looking forward to seeing what you do with that 190.

I don't do much weathering, will probably be done as one fresh of the assembly line, ready for shipping to the front.  Might either try and find a flatbed rail car to mount on, or do a loading dock dio.

The 190 will probably be a "clean" build as well, strictly OOB.  May jump into the Pride GB as soon as I get a couple of others finished up.

Merry Christmas !

Looks great Elation.

Hey Bish, Spit fire Mk Ixc to be exact, LOL SORRY sir blame it on the Vodka or the Holiday which shall not be named. I like you here so.... Sorry please forgive me I really want that Mark.

I have my meat hooks into a P-51D, a friend is selling his to me. Should mention it is the Tamyia 32nd scale. I g think the Mk Ixc would be a nice book end. Really hope you had a productive day building one of your AWESOME builds.

Nice pair there elation. I have the British Army Apache kit, looks really nice, plan on building that next year.

Hi ;

 Well , Christmas was a surprise . I now have a Submarine of dubius reputation . It is Yellow . And very weird looking . The crew figures look even stranger . I think they're the " Fab Four " some call them . LOL.LOL.

It sound's like one of the subs that came in a  cereal box........

Cap'n Crunch ???

Just kidding ! Been kinda curious about that kit. Let us know how she goes together. 

Gold hammer and Elation, those all look like good scores...

Since my family never buys me model stuff for Christmas, I always buy myself a little something every year to cover that...

Both were bargains compared to previous searches for these kits and the Viggen was even still sealed in shrink wrap!!! And in the weeks leading up to Christmas I picked some PE sets for kits in my stash and one decal set as well...

2018 looks good from a modeling perspective ...

Got a couple of kits for Xmas (Tamiya Spitfire Vb #61033 and the RAF Mustang III #61047) along with $140 in gift certificates from one of the local hobby shops.  A nice surprise.

There sure are some nice kits floating around this topic!  Here’s one I picked up for myself.  I’ll get a few more 1/35 builds under my belt before I tackle it.

Thats the problem with this thread. I keep seeing kits i then decide i want, and so any chance of reduceing how many i add to the stash goes out the window. Who's silly idea was it to start this thread.

 I was under the impression that we were supposed to INCREASE the stash...not deplete it.

Just purchase more Bish...purchase more! LOL

Nice little kit. Definitely needs AM tracks to give the detail and sag. I stole some Modelkasten off of ebay for only $11 shipped. Still in the stash after 10 years or so. Lol

I snagged a 1/32 Hasegawa FW190D9 off ebay this morning for $17 + $11 shipping. It's missing the decals but I have a set from AeroMaster that I grabbed from Squadron a while back on sale for one buck. I've been wanting to do blue 2 from the sheet which is a very late Dora.

Hunter those are some super acquisitions!

And look what the postman brought today... a little bird told me that Sprue Brothers had them on sale...

OOOH snap Carlos, I am super happy for you. I have been wanting that kit for awhile. I sure hope you do a thread or post finished photos of her. Great kit sir!!

Thanks Hunter. I have been wanting a proper F-35 for my collection after finally seeing them fly in person on a couple occasions last year. They are growing on me. And yes, when I do build it, you’ll see it here.

Well I made another great eBay find recently. This decal set of early Vietnam War F-4C was available for roughly half off... and only $1 shipping...  who can pass that up?

Nice buy Stik. The F-35 is entering RAF service this year, so i am hoping we will get some operational British ones to build.
