  1. Not cheap. Neither are some of the donor kits required Chevrolet Corvair "Bertone Style" Styling Study - requires an AMT 1965 Corvair........yeah, right. Good luck finding one without breaking the bank. Same with finding an AMT '69 Ford Galaxie. Not to mention the difficulty/impossibility in trying to find window glass for a number of kits for which no donor kits exist. To each his own, I guess.
  2. I ordered a Mattel Vac-U-Form Machine and an Upgrade Kit Now, I'll be able to vacuform replacement glass, among other things.
  3. E-5 U.S. Army 1979-85. 11B (Bullet Stopper) P1 (Jumped out of perfectly good aircraft while stopping stray bullets). Secondaries 45B Weapons Tech/31V Radio/Telephone Repair/76Y Supply Specialist. 1979-81 101st Abn Div. C Co. 1st Bn 506 Inf, '81-'85 1st Armd Div. A/1/6 INF (Mech).
  4. Not even remotely possible. That engine weighs 2640 lbs.
  5. That particular engine is a Maybach HL230 P30, used in Panthers, Jagdpanthers, Tiger II, Jagdtiger. It could be used to detail the engine compartments in Academy and Tamiya 1/25 scale Tiger and Panther kits.
  6. Umm........ Pacino's Scarface was, in essence, a remake itself. The original Scarface was released in 1932 and starred Paul Muni as Antonio "Tony" Camonte and portrayed Al "Scarface" Capone's life. Tony and the original "Little Friend"
  7. He'll probably get the dough for them. I've seen more than a few of these Johan Caddy promos on a well known hobby shop site, warped like bananas, and are priced similarly. I've also noticed that there are people willing to pay, regardless of the promo's altered state.
  8. I couldn't finish running tripwire across all of the major intersections along Bedford Avenue before the NYC Marathon started.
  9. Anyone ever see one of these? Is this an acetate or styrene promo?
  10. Pardner, that kind o' grub reminds me of the good ole days ridin' the range
  11. All of his dialogue was improvised, stream-of-consciousness. Stanley Kubrick let him loose.
  12. Excellent video, man. Packed with a lot of useful information. I can see how it can be translated to scale modeling.
  13. That's a really nice new tool kit, Geoff.
  14. Hmmm.... the company is located on Broadway & E. 21st St. in Manhattan. I think I'll visit the office and take a gander at things.
  15. Not for nothing, nobody can force you to buy any type of "insurance". Sounds like the old "protection" racket that wiseguys used to extort money from businesses so "you don't have nuthin' happen. It'd be a shame if there was sumpthin' like an explosion or fire, see?"
  16. I use this
  17. Nice! I always thought about grabbing one of these; except, it seemed a bit pricey. I ended up getting the HRM resin kit for 165 bucks. Go figure.
  18. Check yer eyes, Ron. Don't you recognize Lena Dunham?
  19. Can't post the good ones.
  20. Contact the Arizona Attorney General's office. They'll answer your question fast.
  21. Oof in bold underlined letters. I thought Christina Applegate would have been a better choice to play Samantha Stevens in that "Bewitched" movie. She has a passing resemblance to Elizabeth Montgomery.
  22. Heh, the commute would be murder.
  23. Keep an eye on Atlantis' website and FB page. There are going to be a lot of things coming up which nobody expected.
  24. Bro, I've had thoughts about doing that. Regular old 1950's-1960's greasy spoon type with counter service, serving up real chow that people in my neighborhood grew up eating, with swivel stools, Jet Spray Beverage Dispensers and a jukebox in the back. No artisanal, handcrafted c_rap here. Just need the 100 large to get it together. Cesar Ramirez, the clown who operates the Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare, in Hell's Kitchen, hates my guts; but, even he complimented me on my cooking. He still hates me, though.
  25. Vigo's not bad. Vitarroz and Carolina are good, too. If you use the Goya canned black or red beans, cut up some bacon, chopped onion, garlic and add a little tomato paste with the red beans. Do the same with the black beans, minus the tomato paste. Throw that down on some yellow rice and yer set.
