Alright, i ventured into the hobby store tonight for the club build, and did a quick browsing through the models. something caught my eye.

it looks old.

AMT 57 chevy "pepper shaker"

i looked all over every part, the box, and the instructions (which are ancient) and i cannot figure out when it was released. would anybody know when this released?

the best thing is i picked it up for 8 bucks and it's only missing front tires, which i have lots of.

Dang it, I wish that Round 2 reissued this kit like that instead of the way they did!

Ever find youself buying something online just because it looks so pathetic and in need of a home?

I got these yesterday, so I hope it counts. Was at a local swap meet.

First, I got the only two 1/24 scale Heller kits I was still missing! It was like finding two long lost children:

These will probably not overly excite you, but they aren't that easy to come by on these shores:

A few additions to my ever growing 1/20 scale stock. I find 1/20 a very interesting scale:

A Fujimi 'Tohge' Mitsubishi Starion Turbo in 1/24 scale:

I have this obsession that I will once build one of these ornate Japanese hearses, hence I always pick up something like this when I see it:

WOW Marc, THAT IS RARE!!! The 2 ORIGINAL kits I have are BOTH YELLOW! I've never seen it in basic white! GREAT score. And Today I got the just released Airfix 1/24th scale De Havilland Mosquito Fighter Bomber! My MOST favorite aircraft of WWII. I have been in love with this aircraft since I saw the movie 633 squadron in 1963!!!! And NOW I FINALLY have it in 24th scale!!! It's BEAUTIFUL!!!!laugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

Went to Hobby Lobby today to check out the 30% off sale. Didn't really see anything that I just had to have, but on the endcap, they had some open box stuff. Lo and behold, but a 1/12th Revell Ferrari Testarossa had been marked down from $69.99 to $15.49. Checked it out and all bags, decals, and instructions are present.

Guess what followed me home and got stashed before the wifey found out...
