Check out a hobby store in San Antonio that I hadn't been to before this weekend. Picked up this Marcoss kit. Also got a book on the Bradley at a Half Price Books.

Nice scores Mike! Funny how the Bradley and Abrams went from being the favored boondoggle bashing subjects of those :quotes: investigative :quotes: TV news shows (60 Minutes, 20/20,etc.) to some of the best AFVs on the modern battlefields… :hmm: Bunch of morons who wrote their scripts….

The new Magic Factory Bradley is an awesome kit from everything I've seen.

I'm going away for work for a couple of days next week and though it would be cool to have something to build up whilst I'm sitting in the Hotel.

I have always loved Wildcats. I like the center wing design and the underdog story of the plane. It held the line in the Pacific until the Hellcat and F4U arrived. After seeing Paul Boyer's build of this kit, I had to pick a few up. Such beautiful plastic inside these boxes!

Nice score! I too am a fan and have done a couple and want to do a yellow wing version after seeing Stik's build.
The forum should get a kick back from the model manufacturers... some kind of attribution model :hmm:
Thanks,
John
