DRG Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Late last week I posted a thread about my stash of 15 unbuilt,not even opened kits. I included a picture that included the 7 models in various stages of completion I already had. Since then I ordered and received two models, a 1956 Ford and the Black Widow. I just got done ordering a combination kit where I get three models, 1968 Road Runner,( I think) a 1966 Gto and a fairlane Gt. Also ordered the Munsters Koach tin. The wife told me to order whatever I want, but don't forget I will need paint and distributors and such. What have I done???
Nick Winter Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Donald you'll enjoy the AMT Muscle car Combo, '66 Fairlane GT/GTA, '65 Pontiac GTO and '68 Plymouth Roadrunner, there all great kits, the combo just makes it easier to get all 3 at once which Black Widow did you get? '57 Chevy 210 Or the Hot Rod? Nick
Nick Winter Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 The Hot Rod. Ahh ok, my Dad built one as a kid, hmm fathers day is coming up shortly, might have to stop at the LHS and see if he's got one. Nick
roadhawg Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 I think I see the problem. You have too many at one time. The solution is simple. Send ME that Munsters Tin and everything will balance out nicely. You're welcome, and I'm glad I could be of help.
High octane Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 What hsve you done? You're just getting into it and wait until you have a couple hundred unbuilt kits in your stash and say "What have I done?" LOl!
XJ6 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 The way i see it the more Kits the better Happy Building..
bigmikevee Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Hey Donald, What have you done? Well, for starters you married the right woman, if she told you to order whatever you want, well, listen to your wife!! Hey, I am sure this hobby has made more than one guy sleep on the couch, you are a lucky man. Mike
Chuck Most Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 What have you done? I'd say you've paved the way for a fun filled summer at the workbench!
LAone Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 I'd say you bought some nice kits. Enjoy. i would like to add this to what he said. you have a great and understanding wife. my wife is the same. she hasn't told me to stop buying. why?? cause im not out in the streets or bars wasting my money. of course i buy her a purse to keep her happy..
george 53 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 That's a good trade off Luis, UNLESS of course, that ONE PURSE is equal to a CASE or TWO of models!!! Have TWO wimmin in my life(wife and Daughter) I KNOW what a NICE purse can cost ya!!!! Oh, an Don, you ain't dun NUTHIN wrong as far as I can see, you just buildin up yer stash!!! Oh, by the way, YOU gotta GREAT wife TOO, jus like MINE!!!!!!!(Ain't WE the lucky ones?!?!) :lol:
Guest Markus355 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 the revell 66 gto kit is a dream to put together btw. very well detailed to boot.
LAone Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 george, i guess im on the lucky side. i buy mostly tamiya and aoshima kits. some can go for good coin, so buying her a hello kitty purse is ok. but yeah, the most expensive purse was 250 bucks. that was after buying a set of wheels for my 1:1 car. which was like 3x's the price of her purse.
