So - I picked up these on a site called Bonanza - really cheap.  I've been wanting some of the older airliners - the engines are so much different.

I will do the 737-200 in Hooters livery.  Gotta find something interesting for the 707 (still factory sealed!)

Thanks,

John

Thanks Gamera.  I've been building up a stash of a handful of weird/unique looking planes.  Meanwhile this just came in the mail today.  I'm a little nervous though, since the parts for the treads alone look like they take up almost 40% of the box.  It looks like each link is 6 pieces Surprise.  I'm thinking it may sit in my stash for awhile, till i get up the will to try and tackle the treads.

The postman brought this today...

I'll tell ya keav, it's a fine looking kit having just pulled it out for inspection.

 

I got some $$ for my B-day last week and bit the bullet and ordered up this beauty that I've been wanting but, never had the extra cash for it. Very nice looking upon gazing on it.

Nice score Brandon! That is a REAL BIG ONE once assembled. I hope you have some place to put it! Are you going to build it in the box top developmental South West Asia camo?

Pat those are some great scores as well! The charicature irreverent personalities of those kits is hilarious!

I'll have to research the look I want for this kit, but I intend to do the early version, so the camo scheme may be the one. We have to move before I build this one as it will be displayed hanging, along with my SR-71 and B-29. Gonna need some serious room for all these large kits.

I bought a zombie to go with the zombie hunter that delivered a few weeks back. I'm hoping actual death will keep on moving past our house when he sees the reaper is already here.

Picked this up on Scale Model Graveyard, a facebook auction group. Interesting color of plastic, I guess it'll be safe to build this one while hunting deer! I'm in PA, so part of the Pumpkin Army

The postman delivered this to my porch yesterday! I’ve been wanting this kit for some time. Why the old Hobbycraft E-1  when there are other newer E-1 kits available you might ask? Well because of the way that Hobbycraft molded their E series kits, with the 20mm gun barrels and magazine wing bulges molded as separate items, I can use those on another 109 project that I have in mind... The price was a true bargain, under $8 plus inexpensive shipping. And it got to my grubby little hands in under three days. I wish all eBay sellers would charge their shipping like this guy. 

 

Anyways, this kit was still sealed in the cellophane wrapper.

HOORAY! Bagged another long wanted kit! The surfboard, skateboard, the figure and the kool Scwinn Stingray bike are long wanted extras. Plus the choice of pick up or woody is a big plus on my scoreboard!

 

and the kool dude himself...............
