Arrived today 10 minutes later Built bike. Although click or snap kit a tiny drop of cement holds it together.
Painting is optional.

In bound as we speak a 1/35 scale kit, if that's what it's called! I saw it on Suyata's site and was taken by how different it looked!

Wow Salvinos, really expensive, especially here in the UK!

Never seen this kit before anywhere. Interesting to see how things go. I'm a sucker for 'Already started kits' as a pensioner.

Spotted two identical vehicles traveling together only different colors, one blue and the other a redish orange. I've seen this type of car before but wasn't sure and had to look it up. It appears they may be a CATERHAM kit car? Just a guess from what I viewed on the web. Didn't get a photo, but this photo from the web will do.
Yes it could be either a Caterham or an original Lotus Seven, depending on the badge on the front of the bonnet (hood). The Lotus badge is oval in British Racing Green with gold lettering.

It's a slow rainy Labor Day so I'm going through some things I've gotten in the last couple months. A while back I asked if anyone had ordered from Scale Hobbyist. Many months ago I asked them to let me know if they got this kit back in stock and they notified me. Here it is, a Mitubishi Starion, one of my favorite cars from Cannonball Run 2. Sure wish someone did a 1/24th Subaru GL hatchback, too! The Scale Hobbyist order got here in less than about a week, well packaged in a box not a bag, and in perfect condition. I have no hesitation about ordering from them again.
Next up is a pair from Lionheart Hobbies, a Bronco Dune Buggy kit, and a Subaru Sambar van.
I also have a couple of Walmart or Hobby Lobby kits. The Celica and a 1980 Bronco. I built that Bronco as a kid and I'll be trying to build it again with hopefully a little more skil this time.
Finally, a bit of a mystery. I came across this Firebird shell and have no idea where I got it. It's missing the chrome, glass and everything else. I put it in the tub of Purple Clean and it took off the thick brush painted Testor's blue leaving a good body. Now all I need to do is find some chrome parts and one of the rereleased MPC Trans Ams for the rest!
Nice Sambar.

Absolutely superb! Although I'll have to buy at least two kits to achieve this!
