  1. You're welcome. Yes, as far as big shows go, he had a lot of product on the table at the NNL East.
  2. Ismael, your Badger 200 kit looks pristine and unused. The price on the box is killing me. Only $29.95 for a Deluxe Kit! Think of how old the compressed air in those cans of Propel must be! LOL The Badger 100 SG looks to be in equally good condition. Both of these airbrushes are great purchases.
  3. I would try messaging him through Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063915584391

  5. My Kijiji purchases that arrived today from my favourite seller! My favourite un-supercar, supercar, Tamiya 1st generation Honda NSX-R! The very brief fan car in F-1, Tamiya Brabham-Alfa-Romeo BT46. This is not the fan car kit, which is offered by Fujimi, but rather I believe the followup car. The forever purposeful looking Fujimi Porsche 930 Turbo Enthusiast kit. The very clean lines of the F-1, Ferrari 642, with the bonus being it is a Rosso kit. the Fujim Skyline 2000 GT-B was a much appreciated bonus kit, included by the seller.
  6. Late to the party on this response. For those only interested in kits: 18:25.
  7. Three colours available: white, grey/turquoise, or wood black/dark brown. I bought the wood black/dark brown. It was listed online as unavailable at my local store. Supposedly the only colour available was white. I had white loaded on the cart, and as I was exiting the aisle I noticed the name Alex in different location. Read the label, and sure enough it was the same unit in the colour that I really wanted. I now know not to necessarily trust the online availability! LOL My next project is to make row dividers out of foam core board.
  8. I bought my own belated birthday present from Ikea, after first stopping at Canadian Tire to replenish my supply of Super Clean. The unit from Ikea has 3 top drawers that are 18" x 24" x 3", and 3 bottom drawers that are 18" x 24" x 4". The bonus is that it has casters. This should accommodate all of my 10 mL bottles of paint (small Tamiya + Mr. Color).
  9. You're right Dan. Quite often these were reissued versions of Fujimi Enthusiast kits.
  10. My first thought was that it was just a case of putting the decimal in the wrong place. Then I looked at his other listings. I guess it only takes one person to bite.
  11. I'm assuming you are curious about the C 1 trans kit for the Revell Land Rover. I took a picture of the contents and attached it.
  12. Hi Jim, the Iwata parts are what I call "recovery" parts for my HP-CS Eclipse. At some point, I took out the 0.35 mm set up and did the 0.5 mm conversion. After taking out the original parts I put them in a safe place. The kind of safe place where I have no idea where they are. These are two of the items I need to put it back to spec. I still need to get the 0.35 nozzle cap to complete it. LOL It was cheaper to buy these two parts at Hobby Lobby than to order them from Maple Airbrush.
  13. I'm so glad that it looks like you have a workable solution.
  14. Hi Tom, sorry to say that I couldn't find the paint at the NNL. In fact, it was quite surprising that there were no vendors of paint this year.
  15. Yesterday, I arrived home from the NNL East. What a great time. On the way to the NNL, a stop was made at Hobby Lobby in Scranton. I bought the Revell Range Rover, some Createx Balancing Clear, and some Iwata replacement parts for my Eclipse. At the NNL, the first stop was at C 1, where I bought three trans kits. Also at the NNL, I bought the Monogram Porsche 904, the Revell '56 Chevy and some MCG photo etch saw blades. On the return trip home, we just had to stop at Ollie's in Watertown, where I bought the Monogram Lamborghini Diablo.
  16. That Mazda Cafe Racer reminds me of the Aoshima model of the Mazda Daytona race car.
  17. I thought of another kit(s). Rosso was a relatively short-lived kit maker. In that short life, they made some interesting kits; some Ferrari F-1 and some sports cars. If you are a fan of 1st gen Honda NSX, these 1/43 kits are well detailed and worth considering. They also made a good 1/24 Ferrari 512 TR.
  18. I'm a big fan of Nissan's, especially the one that redefined the Skyline (GT-R32 , Godzilla). I was looking for this eye-popping livery for a long time. Usually when you find one, it ships from Japan for a VERY high price. When it rains, it pours. I finally found one NIB on eBay. It was shipped surface, and after weeks, I had given up on ever getting it. Around that time, a friend said that he had one available. It was NIB with the exception that different wheels and tires had been substituted. So now I have two of the Tamiya kits, as well as a Hasegawa.
  19. I finally finished cleaning up and refurbishing the three Iwata HP-SBs that I purchased used. The top brush pictured, that I chose to keep, has a needle packing conversion to the new style, a new nozzle, and a new colour cup. The other two brushes were deemed 2nd and 3rd best based on a visual evaluation of the components.
  20. Donn is usually present as a vendor at the NNL East, so it would be great to see him there on April 22.
  21. Thanks Les. Do you have any idea as to the origins of this kit?
  22. I realize that this an old thread, but I hope someone can help me identify the used kit that I bought. It is curbside and includes the motorized axle. I tried researching the kit number (Revell ceji 7258-0389), and came up with nothing.
  23. If the production detail is as crisp as what's shown, I'll get this kit.
