I got a little money for my birthday and finally bit the bullet for this:

1/72 scale Special Hobby Douglas B-18. Mostly forgotten late '30s bomber whose main combat experience was getting shot up on the ground at Pearl Harbor and the Philippines; but I always liked the pre-WWII types. I waited 35 years for a company to produce an injection-molded kit, but the darn things were always listed at around $50-$60 or more. Finally found one with a Buy it Now price of $30 (cheapest I've seen in two years of watching them) and it's on its way to my little hangar. I don't build many planes anymore but this is an exception.

I ordered a couple of '65 Satellites as well as the new Revell '29 Model A Roadster kit. They'll probably just be added to the "pile" as I'm currently workin' on three models already.

First of the month, I'll be stocking up on some paints..... I'm out of primer and clear (can't do much without those!), and need other odds and ends, blades, tape, etc.......

Revell '29 A...2 of them really. I have a very special '29 I've been putting off building for several years, and now that the Revell kit is out, I think it's gonna be the basis. Gots to have some of those other parts parts parts too.:D

I knew the 'A roadster was gonna be a big hit when they first announced it! Bill, are you going to build the track-nose roadster that you have posted here in the past?

....probably the upcoming reissues from AMT ROUND2.......the 60 vette,,,67 charger, usa 1 vega, possibly the 69 cuda......and a couple of each as well..........the Ace.....:P

I just got caught up last week. I got both Moebius Ford pickups, the Satellite and a '57 Ford Ranch Wagon.  That leaves the new Model As... will need at least two of them.

Despite telling myself "No more models", I have found a couple of the MPC WWII Jeeps on clearance at Hobby Lobby for $14 the last two weeks and figured they were worth it for parts to fix some Jeeps already in my collection.

I truly have to rid myself of some more models before I buy any more as I am trying to de-clutter my life in other areas. I am looking forward to getting some bench time here real soon, maybe getting a bunch of WIPs finished!

I have reached my maximum capacity on kit storage. So no more for me for quite a while. Although if I did get another kit, it would be a 2nd 29 roadster, or the 80 ford f150

With the arrival of the '65 Satellite and the Ford '29 A Roadster kits due in my mailbox soon, hopefully I'm done buyin' for awhile. I would like the '65 Comet kit, but that won't be on the shelves 'til next year.
