iamsuperdan Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Found a couple at a semi-local hobby store. And they do unadvertised flash sales, so these were significantly discounted, which is always a nice surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Just back from HL. Went to get a detail brush but then stuff happens. A little scared of the lightning because of the tailgate issue but mine was the last thing put in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike999 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Wow, that was FAST! Won this pair of Heller Gullwings on eBay Sun. night, 12/30. They were delivered by the USPS today, 1/2. Pretty impressive, especially considering it was over a major holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89AKurt Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Went out on a limb, going to try Splash paint. I got the Lambo and photo-etch some time ago, was thinking of painting it green, but everyone else is doing that, and I like purple. Plus had to see what the Forged Carbon decal looked like. The Beetle is going to be a replica of what my parents had before I was born, for the GSL Common Kit class. I better get hopping on that, starting with the ski rack!

#1 model citizen Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 That is quite an unusual multi-point icicle on the front wheel. Will you be replicating it, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Fujimi #112527, Garage & Tool Series #22. Available from many different vendors, or eBay. (Pic stolen from internet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anglia105E Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Just like Michael of South Carolina. I was really impressed with a very fast delivery today...... I placed an order for a rattle can of cellulose Ford Imperial Maroon paint to build a 1960 Ford Anglia, which was yesterday 3rd January and by midday today, 4th January the paint had been mixed to order and delivered to my home address. This is so fast I cannot understand how the company did that? Sent an email to say thanks for a brilliant service! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmodelbuilder Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) I got these 4 Fords off Ebay . I am curious about the 36 Roadster & Coupe kits. I know they are from the old AMT 3n1 kit, but I have one that was molded in grey & another in black. Anyone know the timeline on which came out 1st?
