Mr Surfacer for A/B

excellent

I decided I needed to get both of them

And that is your opinion, and I disagree, there is just as much style today as there was in yesteryear.

Thanks for that info

I have to agree with this, and I would rather a model company focus more on the actual subject and getting it correct , I mean, sure, engines are nice, but if the rest of the model is not accurate.

Hasegawa is following up the Deluxe Sunny with the Early Type DX version , release is slated for June , with a pre order price of 2500 yen, the difference's for this kit is the grill,front bumper, the dash insert, steering wheel, and dog dish caps for the wheels. Everything it is in pink is whats new for kit https://secure.hlj.com/product/HSG20267/Aut

It would make sense that the With Options version would have both dash options , since its the same kit with just having a extra parts tree(s) added to the box.

Tamiya is reissuing the Toyota Land Cruiser 80 kits, both the stock version and the with options parts kit, July is when they are scheduled to be in stock

If they say its backordered, that means it is backordered, how long it takes depends on how many people have backordered as well, but since its a new kit, the wait should not be too long. I believe you can get one from a Ebay seller for $43, thats including shipping, or there is Hobby Search , they have them in stock

Another new tool from Tamiya this year is the Toyota AA Type from the mid 1930's , release date is set for June, and the price is around 3000yen, you can pre order now from Hobby Search, HLJ has not listed it yet. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10321831

Aoshima and Beemax are bringing a couple more rally cars, Toyota Celica TA64 85' Safari Rally and Nissan 240RS 83' New Zealand Rally , both are ready for pre ordering. The Toyota has a release date set for May, and has a price starting at 3000 yen depending on where you buy http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS08456/Aut http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10320846 Detail set , which will run you 1400 yen, or about $12US http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS08457/Aut The Nissan has a release date set for July , and has the price, starting at 3000yen depending on where you buy http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS08579/Aut http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10320852 Detail set, which will run you 1400 yen, or about $12US http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS08580/Aut

Here is a link to pre order it through HLJ, with the exchange rate, it comes to about $25US http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS08299/Aut and for those that might want the detail set , it will run you about $12US http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS083000/Aut

I assure you that there was absolutely zero sarcastic tone to my reply, I am not sure how suggesting a idea could be took as being sarcasm , it was a valid suggestion.

Thank you Tom , believe you me, coming to NNL is on the list for some time in the future , there are a lot guys I want to meet in person, and a lot of friends on the east coast that I also want to me in person . I lost one of my Zebra pens, I really liked that pen, good thing I keep a stock pile of them on hand........................................

Mark, there was a plan in place for that, I was going to try an announce doing a meet and greet , but with all the issues with the audio, it just honestly slipped my mind.

I am trying to get him to come out to DSC , maybe next year , I am jealous you guys get to meet him.

I think its awesome that Chris from C1 models is making the trip over the pond to come to NNL, I hope it goes well for him, he said that he would like to do more shows here in the USA, so make him feel welcome, his stuff is very good , I have a friend picking up a couple of things for me at the show

Aoshima will be doing this one as a 2015 North American Version , release date is set for June and 3200 yen will get you one.

Update, May is now being shown as the release date , and I have a price , 3800Yen, which at the current exchange rate is $31US Pre order now from Hobby Search http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10320848

Have you considered starting your own forum?, there are plenty of free ones out there that you can use, and you can set it up for only the subjects you like.

It was Saturday, I lost my pen at the show, I know where its at, I just couldnt get to it, and some audio issues as well
