Glad you found Tom's shop Russ...one of the nicest shop owners I've found anywhere. He's well stocked with current kits, out-of-production stuff (by a few years anyway, nothing super-old) as well as a clearance table. I try to buy a kit every month or two from him. And his prices are decent too
I haven't seen anything new from MCG in years either (C'mon MCG ), but I sure wish some aftermarket company would jump on the PE bandwagon with all of the new-tool kits already out and more on the way!!!

Can't believe there is a market for this, and for good $$$ too:

Next thing you know they will be putting old kit parts inside these sealed boxes and getting big bucks from the casual modeler/collector that will believe they made these phantoms!
Sure wish this Scout 800 was kitted though...
I'm still tinkering Andrew, let me see if I can get something 'pic worthy' posted this weekend, white vinyl replication doesn't photograph easily
Glad it got to Fred safely, looking forward to updates
Russ, I'm not a member of any clubs (other than here ), but I'm sure there are some around...
Maybe Joe in Youngstown is a club member or knows of one:
