Went to Meijer to get my daughter a couple things, and got this.............. for $14.99. Don't know if I'll ever build it, but couldn't pass it up for that price.
I haven't FINISHED a build since early this year. I just lose my motivation. Happens to all of us at some point. Maybe keep a few snap kits on hand for those times just so you can knock out a couple quick builds.
For an extra charge of course. If you haven't yet, check out their website. They also have discounted services auctions on Ebay.

Actually the HUT is treating me quite well, and it's about time it starts showing. New car in Sept. and now a house......... I'd say I'm about the happiest person in the world right now.
I'm finally able to move up in the world (a little). We start moving from a 2 bdrm apt to a 3 bdrm house tomorrow. We're still renting but it's only $50 more a mth than the "hole" we're in now and a LOT nicer. I'll have a whole room just for my "shop". Now I just need to fill it with kits.
I would actually prefer the Fujimi Koenig Countach 1/16 (I am and always will be a Countach lover).
As for styrene from Santa, I would rather have plastic, in card form, so that I can go to the LHS and buy whatever I want.
I seen the actual commercial this morning.
My first car was nothing special (78 T-Bird), and although my dad is gone I would love to find his 70 Duster.
Here's the start of my garage. I'm going to enlarge it a little. And I'm saving some $ to make it worth the trip to Ann Arbor (Riders Hobby) for the sheeting for the walls.
