Whats the weirdest kit in your stash?


Recommended Posts

Well, if you want to see weird, look no further:

A few others out of my stash worth mention,

1/1 scale rhinoceros beetle

1/72 F-19 Stealth fighter

Released in 1987. At the time there was rumors going around that the USAF had a top secret "stealth" fighter airplane. This kit was made as an educated guess of what this plane might look like. Needless to say, once the real stealth fighter was revealed this kit was never seen again.

1/87 Bates mansion

Made to scale to fit right in on your HO railroad layout. What's not to love?

Freekin shweeet!!! Where did you get the little cart and display case kits at??

Scored them from a friend of mine who has relatives in Japan and they send him some weird kits once in a while. I have not seen him in a while, but I am sure he will have some off the wall stuff up for grabs when i do!

Hey Jesse- I have one of those! Take care of it. I was shocked when one when on eBay for over $200 not long ago! I guess they are somewhat rare and sought after. Who knew?

This also might make a great team night for the club. Weird kit night. Just bring in the kit. Doesn't have to be built. Might be fun to see what people have in the dark recesses of their closet!

Here is the Photobucket Folder.

All seats are Separate (45!!)

As are all Light & reflector lenses.

Chassis has separate suspension and other parts, but,

there is no engine.

I don't care. I just like Odd kits like BUSES!!!!!

The Isuzu BXD's are Promo/Craftsman like kits.

I was lucky to find this one! Wanted one since I was a kid an saw them new in the stores. Yes, I will bring it to the Anything But A Car meeting.

Yes, I also have one of the Chinese limos from Trumpeter, my version has a "sunroof" with microphones and such on the edge for the dicatotor to stand up and address the people from the car. A huge car and a huge kit but sadly a little bit short on details.

This could be a good idea for the kit:
