Styrene Addict. Show us your latest kits here.

Some very good kits there. The price is awesome.

Cheaper than Ebay ! ...I have known my son to have second thoughts and taken stuff back - so I'll see how long I can hang onto them.

Nice selection !

HIDE them quick before he returns!!!!

Nice score Ron.

I'm envious of the Chrysler 300!!!!  

Yesterday was like several Christmas and birthdays in one
- maybe he knows something I don't know, as I haven't been feeling well lately ????
Seriously, I'm really chuffed, and if you fancy the Chrysler Al, I can do you a swap, as I already have that one.

Drove to Ocala today to my not so LHS for some styrene material.
Doing  some reckless eyeballing, I ended up blowing my modeling budget for the rest of the year.
This has so much going for it, I couldn't pass it by.!!!!
Ever since I was so close to winning a large scale Ford GT on Sharks Realm, I have wanted to tackle a larger kit. This was priced at about what the Minicrafts go for on the internet.(bonus is -  no postage added) And, It's rather not so mainstream. :o) It's also my  birth year model 1935.
Having no extra parts for this scale, it'll be pretty much OTB.
Opening it up, it seems a fairly simple straight forward assembly with not as many parts as I had suspected.  But I intend to do it proud.....when I get to it.

Awesome !!

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

001  Never seen one of them built, looks cool

thats an awesome project

Looks great - and can you believe Morgan started making brand new versions a couple of years ago, for  real?
Should be good for a little extra detailing?
As we all get older and our eyes get weaker, I'm wishing all car kits were made in a larger scale.

my haul from the Southwell show......spent far too much :D


£12/$us19/Euro14.......been wanting one of these for ages cos of my interest in AAA

couldnt pass this up for a fiver! /$us8/ Euro 5.90

tenner /$us16/ Euro 11.78

£3 / $us 4.8     the guy said 'you realise it hasnt got any decals?'.....'hello?...welcome to whiff world!' lol

these were 3 quid each but got both for a fiver....one mg gunner is missing but i aint complaining for that price

there was a guy selling Black Dog and Value Gear stuff which i was tempted with but then found a guy had been doing some casting of his own.......got to be worth a punt at £2.60   , innit? ;)

Love that Ducati !! I have yet to get me one.

Love the Ducati Paul and the tank looks interesting. never heard of Eastern Express, what is it like?

certainly not tamiya quality lol..........ive often seen Eastern Express around, they do some very interesting subjects, at that price i thought it was worth it to try it

Nice haul.

I needed these three like a hole in the head but what can you do!! Just had to be done. 001 

The first two were bought from me while the Chrysler was traded with Ron. (Dadoronron)







Man the Chrysler is huge. Without bumpers it scales out at 18' long!!!



Here it is with a 66 Mustang Hardtop for comparison.

All three are excellent kits.

With the help of a member on another site, I managed to get hold of a super rare, now OOP, CMW, resin and white metal, Belly Tanker kit.

It's the kit I wanted when I built my vac formed Belly Tanker and is a vastly superior product.

That is sweet. Love it. 001 

Attended the OSSM show in Portland, OR area yesterday. Met up with Buck, and understand that Brizio was also there, but after I left. A good time was had by all.

Ended up finding the kit below and adding it to my stash:



I love the box art, especially the photos of Mark Donahue and Roger Penske.



I have never worked in 1/32 before, so it will be a learning experience to be working so small. The decals are old and cracked extensively, so I have heard that ones are available from Australia. Will be looking for these.

I have long been a fan of the old Can Am series, as I got to see them run at Riverside Raceway (Riverside, CA) back in the late 60's (1967 I believe). I was around 17 at the time, and it made a huge impression, especially when, in the pits, a McLaren lit off the engine when we were right behind it. The sound was felt as much as heard, and something one will never forget!  

Remember seeing that 1/32 Porsche before, but I think it was boxed as a Matchbox model in the UK.
...and that Salt Lake Bellytank racer looks cool Al. - Great purchases.






*****Remember a month ago when my son gave me his stash of 23 unstarted kits?
Well, today he popped round to 'borrow' seven of those kits.
I guess he's had a rethink - and I don't blame him.

Good seeing you there also Pete. I will be posting pictures later on.

I miss you too! Probably you left before I arrived there, around 10:40.
