Spottedlaurel Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 A few odds and ends which have recently arrived: I like these basic Monogram kits, despite the low parts count they build up nicely. Wire wheels are not intended for the TR7.... Been after a Celica Liftback for a while. Not sure if I'll build mine as per the box art, as usual it's essentially a road car kit with extra parts in the box. Bumpers are unchromed. First used the 'chrome' Gundam Marker at the weekend. Not a replacement for BMF, but easier to apply in some circumstances - I did some deeply recessed headlight bowls and they look really good. I was pleased to finally get this version of the RX-7, as I already have a couple of the earlier version. This one seems to be an older release and unusually for Tamiya it has an accessory wheel set included. I want to combine the circuit racing parts of the Escort with the rally car kit (which has different arches) to create a loose replica of a National Hot Rod short oval racer, like this: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Got the 1/25, resin Fomula Firebird body last week. The Mopar air cleaners and the Texas 3D customs baja bug kit (with alternate hood) yesterday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch is right! I am going to our local HL Thursday (that’s when the new stock comes in) so it will be interesting to see the new kit pricing.

bluestringer Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Yep, picked up one today, 40% off. The regular price on some of the new models has gone up to 39.99. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Mr. Postman brought me a couple of sad little Ford J-cars, one early, one late, both semi-grails, both started, bodged, and given up on...but savable and way cheaper than virgins. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eyed it last week but didn't want to pay the price knowing this week would be 40% off... The Foose truck I've kinda wanted for a while but it was basically impulse. The Nova just has too many good usable parts to pass up for like $13 if you get nothing from it but the chassis and the wheels/tires you are money ahead in my book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ Deuce Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Local Hobby Lobby was restocked with some new stuff, on a 40% off week, but I managed to resist the urge to buy any new kits. Settled for a chrome Gundam marker, since I've been wanting to try it out. Hard to pass on the reissued Supra, but I have an original issue in the stash. Also considered grabbing another prostreet Nova, but I have two already, in addition to the engine stands and blocks I saved from earlier ones I had. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
