Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

Latest Acquisitions

I have a couple of new acquisitions in my stash. The first one is an attempt to get the WNW kits I want before they sell out. Next month I will order a couple of the smaller kits that have been in the list a while. For now I have this one.

Then after a bit of thought on the matter and a suggestion from SADave, I decided to do a nostalgia move and build a 1/72 Do17z. The new Airfix kit is supposed to be a nice well done kit and my plan is for it to get placed with my 45 year old Monogram build from 1970. I might fix the missing machine gun barrels and antenna wire on the old Monogram kit while I am at it. Still have to order a few items from SprueBros for the 1 month build. I don't intend to do much research on it other than for what colors should be where. I expect I already know what most of those colors are in the office part. B)

Wish me luck on that one. It will be hard to cram it together for me in 1 month. I don't build fast.

Be aware that the prices are going up on March 1st

Seriously? Well happy freakin' birthday to me! I hope I get some early Birthday money so I can pick something up before the price hikes. Don't see it happening though. Man, that just bites!

Well done Ed. It'll be good to see that Tiger moving now.

Rich, nice scores man! Looks like you got quite a British bomber force starting up! I also love the boxart on the Italeri kit.

There's some exciting future projects in here!

Early Happy Birthday. What were you going to look for Duke? All are very cool but some are cooler than others.

Not real sure yet. I wanted to get several 1/72 scale Modelcollect models but then ACE has been bringing out quite a few 1/72 scale subjects that have captured my attention. I was hoping to get about $100.00 to spend but I'm not getting squat. Oh well, life goes on. I have plenty of models in the stash to work on already.

Oh so not a WNW kit. I dont know about other companies, just know that WNW gave warning.

Ah, okay. I might have to find out if other companies are going to do the same thing then. My apologies; I thought that that you meant everything was going up. Thanks for clarifying that.

Woo hoo. Do you know when the MT-LB will be out for public consumption? I've been waiting since last year when I saw it was being done. Could you do a photo spread by any chance? Thanks in advance.
