Ideas for Christmas

[LyleW]

This popped up on a FB Group, "Old Farts Scale Model Group" - Wife said I could order one and then said, "Merry Christmas". It is / was on sale. . . for only $850.00 US ....marked down from $999.99. A real bargain. Over 3,000 pieces and the rail bed base is 7 feet long. A fun one to watch.

Was that the new Dora railgun? (The link points to a desk picture)

I apparently have no issue blowing big money on kits as evidenced by my recent "latest acquisitions" post, but even I struggle with thinking of a reason one would buy one, or where to keep it if it is ever built...to say nothing of ever moving it.

This monster. Oh my, what a project.

7 foot long railroad base… yeah that might fit on the mantle….

[Glamdring]

Yeah, but how tall are the ceilings?

And to think the 1/32 scale Lancaster is big. It would be interesting to see how big it is with a 1/35 scale tank and figures next to it.

Here is one with figures in place. Must be the version that released about 10 years ago.

I guess this was released in 2009.



One of the guys in OC IPMS built it back then. I remember when he brought it in for a chapter meeting. That thing is HUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGE!!!!!!

You can park it in the garage no problem.
