Went to WalMart this morning to get some primer and bought a 5 buck DVD called "A Company of Heroes" with Tom Sizemore and Neal McDonough. Any good? I'll find out tomorrow! Jeff

Just picked another Japanese tank kit (and most likely this will satisfy my quest) it's the Imperial Japanese Army type 95 Light Tank "Ha-Go" by Fine Molds. www.scalemates.com/products/product.php?id=132932It's a bit different than the one on display at Hawaii as this is the North Manchuria Version, notice the upswing cantilever arms. I don't know... it just had a different look to it so I bought it! Oh, but there is one more, I forgot. It's more of a "Combat Car" than a tank but we shall see if the funds hold up. And as far as that movie/DVD Gary? I tried playing it in a portable player the other day and the soundtrack dominated the dialog so I had to bail on it. But, the images looked good even though they used a mocked up T34 as a "Tiger tank" painted grey but there was an SU-100/SU-85M too without being altered as the German forces attacked. I need to check it out later on the home system to see the rest of the movie and if it will even play. Jeff

Nice score there TT! I like the Skoda RSO and did you say the reference material "came" with the kit too? SWEET! Please do a build thread on it to further convince me I need one. Gary, I also want to get a 'Chi-Ha' too... like the one you built not too long ago. The radio antenna on the turret is an interesting look. I have a Type 97 (late production) and need a Type 74 and I'm all done with the Japanese tour. Now... are those elves available for what weekend? Jeff

Very nice hauls everyone.
jackwagon, can't wait for that next project of yours, nice collection of goodies.
Well I didnt get much at the show yesterday. Bought about 6 or 7 jars of Lifecolor paints from Red Frog hobbies and while at it, had a good bs session with Ron, the owner of Red Frog.
At the club table I snatched up the older Dragon Scud missile kit....talk ask why, I have no idea. I also picked up a couple of other Dragon kits but will get into that in my next build blog.
Some other MSC members faired better in adding very cool kits to their stashes. Our own Tyler made out like a bandit at the raffle table....AND picked up a couple of gongs...1 or 2 golds.
Will let the others chime in on what they bought.

DUDE! You gotta DELL! I have a DELL monitor and a Gateway PC... just about 6 months old and love it. And I know you guys are probably sick of all the Japanese kits I've been showing, but I just won a Tamiya Chi-Ha today: And my Fine Molds Ha-Go kit showed up yesterday: And it came with Fine Molds track links, Fine Molds PE and also an EDUARD sheet too. All in all a pretty productive score as the Tamiya kit was only 9 bucks... and is still sealed. Looks like one whole shelf will be dedicated to the little buggers! Jeff

Well, originally I had no interest in the Chi-Ha (mostly because of the tiny turret and that antenna on top) but I found some images of Garys build and remembered how well THAT turned out so I thought what's one more? Good price and it's a Tamiya so it should be good.
Also on the Type 97 I had in the stash, think I'll paint it like the one Ropkey has as it was captured by the US Marines (painted on the side) and I found some white letter stencil transfers that will work perfect.

Yaaa Buddy. Been cruising some sites and it looks like Dragon makes at least 6 kits in braille, so I should be fine. Soon as I pay for this 'puter I can see some sneaking into my stash

Well I missed out on Armorcon But seeing as I had planned on going, I had money I was prepared to blow. And, blow I did. And some milliput in a paintbrush. Total of $60, so I didn't do that badly.

I went to CAPCON on Saturday, and came back with a lot of stuff. The tankart was autographed by Michael himself (I believe he went to hornet hobbies in Toronto, and I purchased he book from their booth). And finally, I also got some medals: Was a very fun day all in all . EDIT: I managed to get the dragon kit for 17$ CAD - won it at the silent auction.

If you want to find Robbo in the not too distant future, he'll be swinging in the rigging Oh, that's cool! At that scale how large a model will it build? As a youngin' I built the 3 Columbus ships (The Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria)... even did up the rigging for them too. Wish I had half the models I built back then. Maybe I should go this route instead of gun turrets on my ship? Jeff
