Our Latest Acquisitions 2017-2024

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

 

 

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

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 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.!

Can't wait to see Val built.

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

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

Tempest Johnny! I see that Revell Me 109-G10 in your stash. The glass and landing gear legs are horrible. Best to replace those or make other arrangements for them lol.

Unless you are already aware of those issues. Then kindly disregard lol.

Griffin, 

I have the late 60's Italaerei M16/40 (that's how the company is spelled on the box). I'll bet yours is better.

 

 

 

 

I read the reviews on Scalemates and it got medium reviews. It does have a few PE parts and a turned barrel, plus the figures. It was $22.11 with free shipping. Italaerei eh? That's interesting. I wonder when they changed it?

The Italeri vinyl tracks are better detailed than the Tamiya vinyl tracks. They are just so stiff... If Italeri would repop their older 1/35 armor kits with link and length tracks... 

 

Tamiya have re-boxed some Italeri kits, the Pz werfer 42 has link and length tracks.

I'll check to see if there are any AM tracks for it.
