Hey Snipe, U BOOT? Jeff,he's not proud!!!!...He told me today,he'll build just about anything,but he'd been after that for a while! I can see that, I'm thinking that's why he got such a good deal

Probably the same place you could get a 1/200 Tokyo . What a diorama that would make .

Well, there is a Hornet that comes complete with the B-25's. Not sure it's it's the one you are speaking of but there is one for about 400 bucks. There's this one as a kit: www.badcattoys.com/usshocvkit1m.htmlThen this one is 100% ready built: www.badcattoys.com/usshocvdo70a.htmlI want one of them SOOOO bad! Jeff

While I like the aspect of building my own kit, the 1:350 display model will have to do for now. Not only the cost but it IS 28 inches long! Holy cow! I'll have a tough time finding a place for it, let alone for the 1:200 kit! LOL

Went to the club picnic yesterday and got these in the drawing. These two are real oldies I think. They are still sealed in the bag, but the boxes show some real wear. I'll give the plane to my 11 year old grandson and keep the tank for a grampa / grandson build. This was the grand prize - a 4" X 12" prefinished base, with $20.00 taped to the bottom of it!! This one came from a friend that found it in some stuff in his basement when preparing to move. He knew I built floaty things. Looks kinda nice. EJ

I couldn't resist this one any longer, it's a 1/1 scale Peugeot 308 CC. This was an exceptional deal. Now, where the sun!? Best regards ! AG.

Oh! A D9R dozer! I want one so badly! So what are we supposed to show here? Latest acquisitions or what we are building? I have about 4 kits being built right now... the normal amount to keep me interested. But my latest is this Warriors George S. Patton. A little side project I want to start as soon as my E-50 is finished and then the Saladin as well. Jeff

Indeed it does Bill, I'm loving the site, its such a good way to keep track of the stash and you'll likely be getting more suggestions in the next few weeks Thanks for getting those suggestions sorted so fast too buddy My pleasure, always try to handle the kit suggestions promptly. Looking forward to whatever else you've got to dig up!

I have the Warriors Rommel fig, the problem with it is it came with 2 left feet, but ill manage. Ouch! Two left feet? This Patton figure has the feet on a pour block, so only the head, helmet and arms need to be attached. But with two left feet... only you can fix it! As far as what I'm going to do with it? It was a spontaneous purchase so no BIG plans other than pose it next to a Sherman tank as it's driving by and maybe some cheering riders waiving at him? Thinking of that makes me want to pop in the movie "PATTON" right now. Jeff
