Daddyfink Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 You can fit three Ramchargers Dragster kits into one box! Just in case you buy a case of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramcharger Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I'll play, I have about 200 kits between cars and figures. Not as many as some guys, but still more than I need. I enjoy looking at other people's collections for some reason, I think it reminds me that I don't have as many as I thought. I also like seeing how other people store their kits and organized or disorganized they are. I also really enjoy the workbench threads too. I guess I'm kinda weird. Here's a photo of my stash: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Cullinan Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Not weird at all. I think everyone enjoys Seeing that they're not alone at this. We are all in the same boat. That's why workbench/stash threads are ao popular too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realgone58 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Guess I'll add my little stash to the thread. At one time I had over a thousand unbuilts, then I decided I was going to sell most of what I had and buy a Harley. Now I could kick myself, so I'm slowly building up a collection again. This is what I've gotten over the past few years. Not much, but somehow the stack keeps growing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Al, you dog! Should have bought the Harley - we could have gone riding together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realgone58 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I did! Then I never rode it, sold it, and re-built the transmission in my car. So there went my kit money! I wish I had never done it and kept my kits. Oh well, live and learn. One day I'll have a ton of kits back AND a Harley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 So there went my kit money! I wish I had never done it and kept my kits. I once sold my 1960 Buick Electra 2 door hardtop for funds to restore my 1965 Barracuda. My daughter's college tuition was due.. and irony, it was the exact amount of cash I had! I guess I can't complain. It went to a good cause and was a good investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 It's a cool kit no doubt. Something different too. It's reissued so there out there now. I have a Viagra stock car and am thinking those decals to make a Viagra delivery truck. That is a great idea Greg... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disabled modeler Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 That is a great idea Greg. LOL...delivery truck. Nice stash Carl....think its cool seeing all the others goodies and what they like too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Cullinan Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 ^^ nice collection Zeek. I like those big scale Porsches. They look like fun. I've never done anything other than 1/24-1/25th, I have the urge though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyg Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I've stopped buying kits for now. Need to get a few built. Currently making good progress on a 1/32 Mack R600 truck and 1/24 Porsche carrera gt. Plan to start a tamiya laferrari next. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPflug Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 These pics are a couple years old, slowed down a bit on acquisitions since but have a few more. Much of what I've gotten recently are older built up annuals stored in plain boxes so not really pictured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPflug Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Some kits are favorites as rebuilders, but usually too pricey as new kits- I like the MPC '71 GTX and '71 &'72 Road Runners, 2nd gen GM F bodies, Mopar A bodies, the MPC Challengers and 'cudas , Volares and even the '75-'78 Road Runner/Monaco kits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fun9c1 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Man, I wish Ben Franklins and Micheals had 1/100th of what some of you guys have! I'll post a pic of my meager collection. I also just bought a Moebius '55 Chrysler 300M and a Johan '62 300M that haven't arrived yet. The '62 is open with a couple missing pieces. I got it on ebay- probably from one of you guys! If these things were $10 instead of $20 - $30 each I'd have a hell of alot more. Prices are ridiculous now so I have to REALLY want one to buy it these days. Somebody asked why so many. For me and my "teeny tiny" collection, it's a matter of having plenty of choices when it's time to build another one without having to go out and find one, because it depends on what mood I'm in when it's time to start one. Plus I enjoy looking at all hte boxes almost as much as the finished ones. the ones on the upper shelf are all 100% complete and not started. Most are still wrapped. The ones on the lower shelf are either done or have parts cars or parts, not necessarily what's on the cover. In the Dexter shoe box is a 1/16 T-bird in need of restoration.

Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 The closet is a deep one...4 kits deep. afew boxes stacked up to the ceiling might as well show the other side of the room while i'm at it, got that paint stand and about $1000 worth of paint, cans and bottled as well as 30 bottles of glue, 20 white / grey cans of primer and a few dozen jars of textured diorama paint. They decided a year before to get out of the model side of the hobby business, so i had been going in and buying cans of Tamiya paint, primer and clear at $5 each. Walked in one day and she asked me if I wanted to take it away! All I had to do way buy the 3 cans i went in there for at full price. These kits barely scratch the surface. I have dozens of boxes in my store room. Sweet room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 After I got back into the hobby in the early 80s, kits were still cheap and I started buying them two of each kit. This is my model storage clost it s 14' X 6", what you dont see is that most of these boxes contain two of the same kit. In an effort to make more space I open and repack the box with two kits. theres over 700 kits here. Wow! That is a room I would love to have!
