StevenGuthmiller Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) I probably have a couple hundred I suppose. I don't have a huge stash because I don't buy multiple kits and I don't buy stuff that I think is kinda, sorta cool. I buy models that I have a good possibility of building at some point. I don't need a lot of extra junk that my family is going to have to get rid of eventually.

vamach1 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I am curious of what brand this is and the scale. Is it a snap lit similar to the Lindberg ones or is it made in Japan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitchdup Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 These are my to build stash. The fishing tackle boxes are full of aftermarket wheels and the white boxes are my resin stash. I have all my vw/porsche/vag kits seperated from the rest. As well as these I have a couple of cases of italeri ford escort and transit to put on ebay in a couple of years. These pics are from the start of the year and I've added a load more kits to the build stash since with more on the way. The cupboard with the spitfire sticker holds my spray cans and airbrush + compressor and the drawers are full of glues, wire and brush paints.

Midori (of Japan) produced slot cars in the mid 60's and like AMT, Cox, K&B (Aurora) and a few other companies offered some of their slot bodies as curbside static kits.

cobraman Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Actually that Daytona is not 1/24 scale. It is/was made in Japan but it is more like 1/43 scale. Scale is not mentioned on the box . It is a crappy little kit that has about 15 pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phirewriter Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Nothing like recycling box art, same art is used on their 1/32 slot cars too. I've got a number of their slot cars and they're definitely not on higher end. That's really unique if nothing else, I've never seen 1/43 offerings from them.

Rich Chernosky Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 This topic caught my eye. I was recently (like a yr and half ago) asked to take pics of my stash so here they are. Believe it or not some of these (not many) have been built since these pictures were taken. Many of them are painted though. This is an accumulation of over 50+ years. The Tamiya street and racer car section 1/20 Formula 1's, sorry about the fuzzy pic. many of these are started. 1/24 Formula 1 kits...yah ...I like F-1 1/12 Formula 1, mostly Protar Ferrari's...they are touogh to build so I don't so em often. More large scale kits...the Mercedes 300SL was recently featured, working on the 1/16 Corvette now. More 1/12 kits, I have over 50 to do, plus some oddballs that don't fit anywhere else. Aaahh the Fujimi collection and other Japanese large scale kits. Most of this stuff is started and or painted. My resin collection, I have since added many to this section so I gotta get busy. Some trans-kits here too. My domestic kit section, I grab one of these when i want a real challenge or something to paint. Most have been painted so i am kinda running out. There are two display cases that hinge away from this storage section. You can just see the backs on the left side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSchnell Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Nice stashes! I'll have to post mine. I think I'm around 400 kits divided between cars & trucks, aircraft and Spaceflight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're welcome Gary. This was a lot of fun. When Scott comes to visit we spend a lot of time going through all these kits. Its just another way we modelers connect.
