FWIW it has been hard to find straight side on photos.

Gary, another thanks for the straight side photo. I made a drawing of it in CorelDraw, and maybe it will be of use for the kit review. It's not quite finished yet though.

I overlayed it on the side view of the Nunu/Platz 935K3 model that I posted earlier, but it's no use, that photo has lots of perspective.

Arrived yesterday, actually. Something I've been chasing for over a decade, a JoHan '69 Javelin. This one's a promo, (factory) painted in Bittersweet Orange which is a gorgeous color and in about 98% shape. Both A-pillars are bent (bowed outward a bit) but are present and complete and I should be able to straighten them out. Paid the third highest price I've ever paid for a model car, but IMHO totally worth it--it's off my Bucket List. :D

Will try to get some pics up of my most recent acquisitions in the next week or so. Got some pretty cool stuff to show. B)

Rob, could you repost in K3 thread in new kits please? I bumped older thread, couldn't really copy past stuff well over there. Thanks, good info. 

Yes, sure, I already felt unconfortable doing a sort-of-review in this section.

As my wife would put it, I have been "giddy" with what the postal worker has dropped at my door. These are what I have received from some great trades with multiple members.

Received this pair of 1:43 scale figures in the post this morning..... the Mother figure is 3D printed, the Pram and Baby figure is white metal and both are professionally painted in acrylic. These figures are not cheap, but then the standard of the workmanship is very high, in my opinion. Ebay supplier is Detailed Miniatures and their website address is  http://www.detailedminiatures.co.uk

This Mother and Baby in a Pram figure stands up well and photographs nicely...... it will be interesting to see them in a diorama setting shortly.
