Found this cutter and some more nice things.

Fantastic haul there Mats. You'll love the 231.Its a very nice kit. Can you give some thoughts on the Bussing Nag and the cold soldiers? I've wondered about them.

Hi James
I just took a quick look at them and they look very good, but i let you know more as soon as i have a chance to look closer in the box :D
//Mats
 
Wow Mats,

That is a great haul and I am envious of a few items (not that I need them but I like them). Anyway, that is the best type of cutter. Do yourself a favor and only use heavy duty razor blades so they don't flex as much and you'll have more accurate cuts.

Regards,
 
thanks for the tip Saul, i will make sure to get some good blades for it (there where 5 double-sided blades included).

Double sided as in double edged?

I hope you can fit single edged blades to it such as this:

Regards,
 
yes double edged, but more the kind you find in carpet knifes, not the ones for shaving :O

My Birthday present came today and I'm quite excited :woohoo: . Unfortunately it was confiscated by the birthday police because I still have a couple of months to go. Le sigh :(

Nice score James! Now, see how many kits you can finish before you can play with your birthday present!

Speaking of birthday presents, I got one in these latest acquisitions...


Okay, here they are, as promised.

At the Valleycon Show, where I met Chuck, I picked this up for a good price:

Yes, I already have one hanging from my ceiling, but it is done up in Russian markings. This one will be done in Iraqi markings.

Next, I won this in the raffle, along with a long wooden plaque (for my Russian armored train) and two other models that I gave away.

I kept this one:

Some time before that, during my IPMS E-board meeting (held at Military Hobbies) I broke down and bought this along with some paint:

And finally, at Hobby Day on Monday, I received this one as a birthday present from a friend:

I've already started the cleanup on the Rommel car on Monday, but when my Neubau-Fahrzeug showed up, I just had to start it. Feel free to check it out in my Build Thread!
 
Nice haul Mark but let me look at this again...

My Birthday present came today and I'm quite excited :woohoo: . Unfortunately it was confiscated by the birthday police because I still have a couple of months to go. Le sigh :(

When do we start?
 
I hit the LHS today. Bunch of orange dots on everything so I started looking.

I got the Karl from a friend in the great white north a couple of months ago, the ammo handler thingy was marked down several times, got it for about $25.00!!

Then..$14.00...

For Cold War Wings!! :pilot
 
Very cool Duke (y) (y)
More coolness Bob. I think I know where there is an ammo carrier even cheaper :evil:
And the Spad wont be till May. Maybe later as my finger slipped accidentally on the order button of a 1/32 B-25. If might slip again if Zotz comes out with decals as is rumored.

James
 
MAY? :woohoo:

That is truly cruel and unusual punishment? What horrendous crime did you commit to be TORTURED in the manner? :vmad

If I knew that there was THAT kit in the closet and I had to wait 3 months for it, they would have to hospitalize me (more than usual). :D

Be strong brother... :v
