Gotta love that big ass tool box with all that pre war steel in it, probably weighed 150+. Yeah, one man lift back in those days.

When they write two in one, they mean two full kits in one box. I wish others would learn that!

Wondered if anyone else was going to take advantage of that "Black Friday" deal they had over last weekend. Prime chance to get stuff that doesn't pop up on sale.
Nice scores.

I tried but I'm all out of cash.
Nice scores indeed. I would be thrilled to see those jeeps shrunk down to my scale.

I'm not sure yet. As distracted as I can get I'm waiting until finish up my "Another World" campaign entry first. I'll try and pop it open and get some photos for you.

Just got one today also. Nice looking kit but a couple of weird things. Mine will be Hungarian.

Nice one Tony!
These are some recent gifts from a fellow modeler on another Forums. He sent them to me because he knew he would never build them, despite having them for many years. First is the old Hasegawa Japanese Fuel Truck:
Next is the tiny 1/72 scale Harley sitting in front of the 1/35th scale Harley box:
He sent that to me just in case I might want to try something in a larger scale. LOL! Since I'm building a 1/35th scale Patton, I'll build this too and try making a small vignette containing the two models.
That's all I got for now.

I didn't take pictures of everything but got a few more kits and lots more books. A package that should have been here more than a week ago has finally arrived while another is still in limbo. From it I got another Sherman Mk V, SU-85, some German troops refueling and a bunch more sanding sponges. The sponges by Infini while a bit expensive are awesome and my favourite sanding sticks and sheets to date. They work great and keep their grit. Also from infini are some very nice cutting boards. I now have 3 of the 4 boards. They are tough and cut proof. The straight lines has been really useful and I think these two will be also. Type B gas circles broken into quadrants and squares while Type C is Radians. They work really well. Place tamiya tape on them and cut it to shape or size.
Oh and a bunch of gator clips aka roach clips in 2 sizes. I will mount these on bamboo skewers to hold parts for painting. Much cheaper then store bought holders. Press them into high density foam and away you go. Oh and a new book arrived today on the Canadians in Europe. The sanding sticks are 600, 800, 1000.
