An apparent mystery shipment from Hobbico

Post by LyleW »

Yesterday, I got a box. Had three kits in it. I cannot find anyone that asked for any of these.

Hasegawa # 10698 Kawasaki C-1 Combo (2 kits) 1/200 scale

Hasegawa #02211 Type 99 Assault (Sonia)/Type 99 (Lily) 2 kits 1/72 scale Limited Edition

Hasegawa #52146  F14 A/B Tomcat 1/72 scale - "Jolly Rogers" Limited Edition

I've asked Hobbico to verify what they sent, but....if any of youse guys did request one of these, let me know. I'm old, you know. If I was as old as I feel, then....oh, that is another thread somewhere.

Okay, folks....these are up for grabs. These were some that Nat picked out a while ago. Any takers?

I'm up to my elbows in the Wild Weasel... and loving it... it's turning into one of those magnificent obsessions... maybe in a few months if something else in a bigger scale (48th or 32nd) comes along... :dogwag:

Take a trip to Kentucky. I'll hand deliver. Be almost as cheap.

Did I mention the F14 is a two kit package as well? All three of the kits contain two complete kits.
