Did you get the truck? Can't find any here of that boxing, but one, at $249.00 USD, at least on ebay

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.

That, they are! I found one. There is a cab over by AMT in 1/32 from Korea for $59,00 US. Not the Aerodyne, though.

Nice. Love the Rufe - just finished one last year.

Nice. I have that Rufe in my stash. Will be my 2nd entry to the Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build

Build it Tom. It's a weekend build - but DON'T forget to put weight in the front of the pontoon!!!

Might be my 2nd entry as well... might... my son keeps asking me to build my hasegawa Jack...

Picked up a few things lately. Found some photoetch for the Hasegawa YF-19 that I have. Got for $15 with free shipping. Also went to the LHS and an art store and picked up some metal tubing, acrylic inks (for weathering) and a AFV weapons set that I hadn't seen before.

AFV Club does a set of 1/48 US aircraft ordnance? Nice! Can you post a frontal box view of that please Mike? Nobody has made those high drag M117s in 1/48 before... looks like that they also have the Mk.82 "ballutes" too! long overlooked pieces of ordnance.

Actually that is the front of the box. It was funny cause I opened the box and there weren't any instructions. I'm like "Great. No instructions." I turned the box over and lo and behold, there they are.

Too late for that. Gonna do this one “in flight”
