Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
I'd say you're tempted buy the box art and the design of the aircraft itself. Such a unique type!

Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
That is an interesting plane. If they ever bring it out in 1/72 scale, I'll be getting and building it.
I got two models recently. One was a gift from a guy clearing his closet. He's more of a gamer so all that mattered to him was that I build models and it was a model he gave me. Yes, I'll build it:

This next one was a purchase at my SoCal AMPS meeting that I picked up to start at our build night meeting that was starting that night. I'm going to be making this a Syrian tank:

Thanks for looking in.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Well, that's probably 100% of the reason...Stikpusher wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2024 1:48 pm I'd say you're tempted buy the box art and the design of the aircraft itself. Such a unique type!

Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
You are in luck, Mark. Contrail made a 1/72 HP 42/45, but it is a vacuform. I had one but sold it to a fellow who did a great model out of it.Duke Maddog wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2024 6:19 pm That is an interesting plane. If they ever bring it out in 1/72 scale, I'll be getting and building it.

Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
Something a bit off the wall for me - I just fancied painting some newly tooled Miniatures for a change, rather than the 80's or 90's sculps I normally paint. The big backpack things are jump packs, kind of like individual rocket packs, so these are the paratroopers of the 31st Millennium.

Did you get the truck? Can't find any here of that boxing, but one, at $249.00 USD, at least on ebay
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Noooo, it went for stupid money in the end, far more than I was prepared to pay. Cab over Aerodynes seen to be quite rare.
