Just curious as to how large and ridiculous some people's stashes of kits are. I'm sure my collection is rather small compared to most of you...I wish I had the money to buy more! Here's mine (there are a few other kits behind the ones in the front, and the Xbox 360 box is my parts box)

Man, that would be a LOOOOOOONG list!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CadillacPat]

Why????????????????????

[brodie_83]

Dunno...just thought it would be fun to see what people have in their arsenal.

[Harry P.]

So you actually expect people to post lists of hundreds of kits? What's the point?

[diymirage]

im sure the more organized among us (definatly not me) have this info in a spreadsheet

but i agree to the futility of this excersize

 

maybe a better question is to name the 3 most special or rare kits in thier collection?

[brodie_83]

I changed the topic...I knew it was a bad idea to list all the kits. LoL!

[sportandmiah]

Here's 10% of my kits. I use Google Drive and edit and view the list anytime from my Phone. For those that think listing your kits here is a bad idea, then don't post.

The closet is a deep one...4 kits deep.

 

 

afew boxes stacked up to the ceiling

 

 

might as well show the other side of the room while i'm at it, got that paint stand and about $1000 worth of paint, cans and bottled as well as 30 bottles of glue,  20 white / grey cans of primer and a few dozen jars of textured diorama paint. They decided a year before to get out of the model side of the hobby business, so i had been going in and buying cans of Tamiya paint,  primer and clear at $5 each. Walked in one day and she asked me if I wanted to take it  away! All I had  to do way buy the 3 cans i went in there for at full price.

 

 

These kits barely scratch the surface. I have  dozens of boxes in my store room.

Modelers with the most kits in their "stash" only proves that they can and/or know how to spend money.

[moparfarmer]

I can't show pictures of my stash but I have 2 1964 JoHan flat box unopened 64 Plymouth Fury convertibles....2 JoHan flat box 66 Chrysler 300 2 dr hts....1965 JoHan flat box 65 Marlin hardtop and a few other flat boxes un built....MPC Dodge Warlock sealed in a large box.

This pic is a little old so there have been a lot of models added to the shelves.Each shelf holds 2 deep and the 3 starting from the left now go up to the bottom of the upstairs floor.Someday I will put the shelves in order and inventory everything.

 

[Hollywood Jim]

I have 113 unbuilt kits. Not that many.

 

A few years ago I decided to only buy a kit if I need it to build my current project. I decided to let other people store kits for me.

Any kit I need is always for sale somewhere.

 

I use most of the 113 kits for spare parts.

gray07 You definately have a shelving problem, The sag in the top one gave it away.

 

As for others, i will post a photo of the ones i've uncovered so far. There is several boxes of others on the back burner..

 

 

Might as well show you the rest of the cave..

After I got back into the hobby in the early 80s, kits were still cheap and I started buying them two of each kit. This is my model storage clost it s 14' X 6", what you dont see is that most of these boxes contain two of the same kit. In an effort to make more space I open and repack the box with two kits. theres over 700 kits here.
