I’d really like to get all of the Russian artillery pieces Trumpeter has been putting out lately. Cost and the space required has prevented me from doing so.

    Lets see, I seem to jump at " the coolest new thingy" that comes out, why my stash has out grown my lifespane, but if I could have 3 kits....

  1/200 USS Ranger CV-61 circa 1988-91, with correct airwing.

     1/48 or 1/32 scale EA-6B Prowler, with VAQ- 131 Lancer low vis decals....preferably from Tamyia so the intake trunks are actually deep enough and fit is near perfect.

      1/48. Bandai AT-AT.

     as Real G said time to complete them all before I hit the BIG bench in the sky.

we're modelers it's what we do

Real G

If I could ask the Model Genie for three model related wishes, I‘d ask for 1) the power to finish what I start in a timely manner, 2) to finish off my stash before I pass on, and 3) to be good at weathering my models using curent materials and methods.

 

I've got to agree with Mr. Real.  All I really would like is the time and focus to work my way through some of the kits in my stash.  No way I will get them all built, but if I could shift from six months per kit to two kits per month, then I would be sittin' in tall cotton.

But, as they say, if I had to choose, I would want a few cars that arent available to me now, cars in 1/25 scale.  Or 1/24, I'm easy:
1) 1967 AAR Eagle T1G Formula 1
2) 1966 BRM P83 F1 with the H-16 engine
3) Chaparral 2F

Ben,

I’m at a point in my life and hobby where I’m good with whatever comes down the pipeline.  There are kits I’d like to see, but most of my Grail kits have been done in one form or another.

If I could ask the Model Genie for three model related wishes, I‘d ask for 1) the power to finish what I start in a timely manner, 2) to finish off my stash before I pass on, and 3) to be good at weathering my models using curent materials and methods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Okay, okay, I’ll play:

1) Saab AJ-37 Viggen in 1/48 by Tamiya, with seated pilot, full ordnance, and a precut masking sheet for the splinter camouflage.  No detail boo boos like in the Tarangus kit.

2) Imperial Probe Droid in 1/12 by Bandai.  Full leg articulation via Bandai’s patented System Injection.

3) MS-06D Zaku Desert Type as a 1/100 Bandai Master Grade kit.  With waterslide decals in lieu of the stupid stickers.

What would it be?

If you could have a scale plastic / resin model of anything... what would it be and in what scale?

This can be an antique kit remade with current technologies, an existing kit, or even of something not yet manufacturered. Because this may be difficult for some to only select one, I suggest we list three. I'll start with mine, and these are not necessarily in priority order:

1)  1/48 or 1/72 naval 16" three gun turret with complete inner workings

2)  1/18 A-10 with full details

3)  1/12 Lotus Indy Turbine Car, full detail

I actually had about 10 more, but I said only three, so what are your "pie in the sky" dream kits of ANYTHING big or small?

..... Ben
