Oh dear, I am terribly embarassed your lordship but it isn't even Christmas and my stash has already been added to.   I went by a liquidation clearance type store on my lunch and they had a couple of 1/72 hasegawa kits for $7.50 (about $6 U.S.) and I just couldn't pass them up.  They are a P-40N and a Raiden (Jack).  I hope your lordship doesn't make me build two kits from my stash for the kingdom as punishment! Wink [;)]

Actually I was thinking that we should post all the voting totals for each person so that if somone wanted to do more than one build they could move on to the kit with the second most votes (and then the third, and the fourth... Big Smile [:D])  Just a thought.Propeller [8-]

 I too will be staying put for the holidays and hope to have lots of build time.

Oh great and all powerful (pantsless) Lord kenny. I like razor's idea. I have been building oob, and this would give this poor indecisive subject a gentle nudge on the next build. Will this be up for decree consideration? Merry Christmas!!!

Hey Bear,

Nice stash, Some nice kits in there including He 111P (which is not on your vote listDisapprove [V]).  I'll be looking forward to seeing that one.  After you finish the Lancaster of course Wink [;)]

But um...  what's with the rubber gloves??  (maybe I don't want to knowConfused [%-)])

Dave I see you've got good eyes, yup there are a few kits I did not list for various resons, my skills are not up to it yet or as in the case of the He-111 one big one at a time.  You are right once the Lanc is done I may try it I'll keep you posted.

 

As for the gloves I'm not going thereEvil [}:)]

 Great Lord Kenny I would like to add to my list a last minute purchase a 1/72 Heller Mirage III E

Cheers

Your Humble Bear

add as many kits as you wish my loyal builders :)

i was pondering the idea of more than one build since it is a year long build i have no problem with that at all . we can either take the second most votes or we can go with a re-vote for the people that have done there kits. most likely the 2nd most will be the easiest.

so as of this day the 22nd day of december in the year 2006 i do decree that if you have finished your build you may move onto the second most voted subject you have.

by years end i plan on having the same build except for 2008 i want to keep this build alive as long as we can :)

and anyone is welcome during  the year to join our build.

I recently visited Dallas and made a pilgramage to Meca (squadron). For my devotion I was allowed to tread the sacred passages of the temple (warehouse) with my holy vessle (shopping cart). I had many vissions and left with two relects (kits) equal to my offerings (money). So at this time I have two glorious additions to my stash. 1/35 - Kriegslocomotive w/tender - trumpeter 1/32 - JU 87g Stuka (tank killer) - Hasegawa If you are a non texan resident and are in Dallas I would strongly suggest visiting the Squadron office/warehouse. They were very friendly and allowed me access and time to just shop the warehouse. It truly is like visiting the holyland of models. Thousands of choices! You can cross reference your kits to any available PE if available. I met several of the staff there and also the new owner. And if you didn't already guess... they all build models! When you first walk in the door they have a massive 1/32 U boat in a display case. Very impressive. I'm not sure i will be able to add anymore to my meager stash before we vote because, unfortuately, my offerings coffer is now empty. ( add frowny face here because i no longer have the smileys or enhanced text options)

Awesome haul there RMV. Thumbs Up [tup]  I would love to visit squadron but unfortunately I live in Canada (wrong side of the States Sad [:(]).  Do you use a Mac? Is that why you don't get the smileys and enhanced text?  If you do then firefox is the only brower that allows you to do those options (free to download off the net).

Have you all been good little boys and girls? Tomorrow we find out!

Good children get kits from Tamiya and Hasegawa.
For bad children, Santa brings Airfix and Esci. 

So you better watch out, better not cry, better not pout, I'm telling you why.

As the all wise and powerful Bow [bow] Lord kenny Bow [bow] extends his welcome so he has decreed we all welcome wing_nut Sign - Welcome [#welcome].

Il I have been very good, but I really don't care if I get models from Bob's Tacos and Kits as long as I can build them. I need bad kits to match my skill level. I build up to the level of my kit maker.Whistling [:-^]

One last time, Merry Christmas from Indiana.
