  1. Decided to go to a couple of Hobby Lobby's today that are not to far away that I've never been to before with the hopes of finding another Foose F100. This is what I see at the first store. Two 70 Chargers and two F100's. With the exception of the 57 ford all of the spots for all of the other kits that have been on clearance were empty. Picked up another Foose f100, the Corvette and the Thunderbolt at the second store. I decided to go a bit out of the way to a third store but no F100's or Chargers there. The Lady at the 2nd HL tells me that F100 is expensive($26.99). I tell her I've already used my coupon for the day. She says I can use it again. She types and or scans something and I get another 40 % off. Also got three fishing rod on clearance at Academy that I've been wanting. Today was a good day. nd
  2. I got .16". 4" divided 25 =.16 1 scale inch in 1/25 would be .04" If i'm wrong let me know.
  3. Managed to find these at a nearby Hobbytown store a few days ago. Hopefully my lack of building space will be remedied before the end of the year and I can get to building.
  4. very nice build.
  5. Really sad to hear about this. Prayers for his family and all those close to him.
  6. The Rosenberg, TX. store had two '29 roadsters and two '30 coupes when I left there Wenesday. Hope someone buys them up.
  7. I'm seeing a few ' 29's also and the HL I'm at now still has two of the '30s on the shelf as I type. They've been here for a while. I think I'm going to leave them here.
  8. One of the HL near me had two. I picked one up on Wednesday and Thursday. I wasn't planning on purchasing any yet but figured I get them while the gettings good. There is also two of the 29's there. Seal was gone on one of them though.
  9. I picked up issue 201 @ B&N in Pearland Texas Sunday. Only had two copies there. Didn't see them there a week ago when I looked.
  10. Nice build and really like the color choice.
  11. I get that same thing also on several sites. Always wondered if it was a closed photo bucket account or something. I've always posted directly to the site from my computer. I'd like to know the answer also.
  12. Looks great and enjoyed the videos.
  13. I'll be watching. Looking foward to seeing them in the different colors.
  14. I guess it's the new tooling. The MPC kits by round2. They have the correct rear window. Model# MPC706L/12. I know in the one store anyway they were new stock. They weren't there my last trip.
  15. WOW!!! The craftsmanship and skill is incredible.
  16. That interior along with the rest look great so far.
  17. I've seen the 1/25 General lee at 3 different Michael's Stores near me this week. I already had two but went ahead and picked up two more.
  18. The revell special edition 2n1 49 Mercury is also on clearance for 6.99.
  19. Very nice and the weathering is great!
  20. That looks great and the detail to the undercarriage is very good.
  21. Got these on clearance locally. First time in that store. $5.99 for the Revell kits. $9.00 for the Rosco mpc kits to go with the 2 general lee kits I have. Maybe I'll get lucky and find the Daisy car and jeep.
  22. Hello, My name is Brian. I've been wanting to get into model car/truck building for some time now. I've somewhat built a couple models when I was younger. 30+ years ago, and I would always repaint my Hot wheels and match box cars. I've always enjoyed building things and putting things together. I've gathered up the components for some of my hobbies and would build golf clubs, fishing rods, reload ammo for my target shooting and I also do a lot of woodworking and boat building/rigging on my boats. My job is cnc machining and cnc programing. I've got a lot to learn about model building and have found a lot of useful ideas and tips on this sight. Everything I do I give it 100 percent. I Don't know when I will start on my first model as I have no where as of yet to do the painting but am slowly building up a collection of models I want to build. All 1/25 scale. In the mean time I look forward to seeing and watching everyone's builds.
