Oh wow guys, I haven't been watching for a while. I'll just speak on what I rmember.

Excelent base Stick. Nice decals as well and of course the Saber Dog.

Nice stuff Kdog, I miss the dragster kits, pluss all the other cool stuff like the Prowler and Reaper. I think I already mentioned the crop duster.

Beav, love the BV. I got a Sunderland which is probably almost as big.

DM, the highly sought Tamiya P-38, nice!

GS, nice haul. I love the Ferdinand, Margraf and of course Manfred. I stink at figures but I really need to try one someday.

Well I received a few myself over the past couple weeks.

First off, two eBay purchases and a kit from Bulgaria. I was musing to my wife that I have a French jet in Argentinian markings in kit form made in Bulgaria 

The infamous Monogram B-17, Academy Connie and Modelsvit Mirage III EA.

Then I was at a mate's house this weekend and he had a few he wanted to give me for Christmas, birthady and my 3 year transplant anniversary LOL.

A Minicraft 1/144 Boeing 707 (always remids me of the Steve Miller's song Jet Airliner (I know, it was writen by Paul Pena)). It's a better kit than the Airfix, but not by much.

Next is a kit I have been wanting for a VERY long time. The 1/32 Hase Ki-84 Frank.

Next was an odd one. Something I probably wouldn't have bought for myself but I'll sure build it, a 1/32 Trumpy Chinese F-7 II.

The last one he started but lost intrest. Since my last name has Swiss origins, I snatched it up.

An apperently rare 1/72 Hase B-17G in Swiss markings.

You're lucky to have a mate like that - very generous  I've never seen a Swiss B17 before, that's an interesting scheme - nice one!

I am guessing the Swiss B-17 would be one of the aircraft that forced landed in the country and was interned.

I hadn't thought of that. I was trying to figure why we would sell a B-17 to the Swiss.

Oh wow Steve! That's cavacade of awesomeness!!!

Holy cow, that's alota 17's! And others. Enough to make a respectable air force I would imagine.

It would ye. I guess if your aircraft was damaged and you could make it, beter to be interned than in a prison camp.

Oh wow, that Swiss B-17 is aweseome!  I've never seen that livery before.

Bish

Especially in Switzerland

Thanks Chad. Now if I can find the time to build it.

Hmmm... A Swiss GB perhaps?  I have much to think about. 

FedEx just delivered these goodies from Japan. More of that darn impulse buying.

Wow!  Nice haul of modern armor.

Mopar Madness

Hmmm... A Swiss GB perhaps?  I have much to think about.  

Draken, S Tank, Mirage, F-5..... and apperently just about everything that the belligerents in the European theater had.

Nice armor haul.

Yep, thats certianly a nice armour haul there Chad. Don't be in to much of a rush to build that Chally will you Chad.

And speaking of Op TELIC, just had my 3rd Acurate Armour 35th resin vehicle kit turn up today. Not gopt a pick of it yet.

We used these on TELIC 2 in the summer of 2003. I'll be saving this for the anniversary GB in 23.

Bish, I feel like there will be a group build in the future most appropriate for it!  That Rover looks like she's ready for anything.

Not to mention, been through everything.

They have nailed the look of the Lanny pretty well. It doesn't seem as though the sand paint applied was hard wearing, but the time we got them in June 03 they had only been used for a few months like this. I think they had just been used as support vehicles during the invasion and then field modified for patrolling the streets of Basra. We actually went out in patrols of 2 vehicles. 3 years later on the same streets we were patrolling in full armoured battle groups complete with air support.

Just picked these two up last week.

John

That walker is a nice kit John.

Always loved Hinds, I'll get one eventuially.

I built the Monogram Hind, nice kit actually. The walker just falls together, very well engineered. Here's what I did with it. A derelict with a leg blown off.

Very cool!

I'm a Star Wars fan and have never made a kit. That needs to change.

Oh wow great stuff guys, Christmas in March!!! 

Chad: Great selection! I built the Type 90 without the mine roller and it's a great kit, goes together beautifully. Only real hitch is masking the camo. And the Chally is another great kit, built the non-desert version years ago. 

Bish: Ohhhhhhhh cool rover!!! Really awesome to get to build something else you served on. 

Just picked this up a couple of weeks ago.It's a 1:1 scale Camry XSE V-6 3.5 301 hp

I was thinking gray,but couldn't resist the white.Very zippy,has some get up and go,a fun ride.
