tuffone20 Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Ok so I just picked up two more trucks kits the other day and when I was putting them with my other kits I realized that I have a lot of truck kits!!! some 30 plus kits of them!! I guess I need to start building them some time soon!! Does anyone else have this many truck kits? I'm sure I'm not alone on this one...
mackinac359 Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Yeah.. there are others with a couple of kits on hand. It's a sickness for sure ! Tim
Guest Mustang3.8 Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Nice collection. Would you consider trading for some of the doubles? If so, I'm interested in one of the '72 Chevy Fleetsides.

Aaronw Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 I've got a section of wall 6 feet by 4 feet just for trucks, about 75 pickups and maybe 40 large truck kits.
Bryan H Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Porky: Which Hobby Shop is that in the photo you posted?
Casey Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 I have three truck kits, all started. I lose. To answer your question, yes, you can have too many kits.
steven Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Yes it is addiction /sickness After years of buying kits and storing them in 3 location around my house I decided one day to put them all in part of a walk in closet next to my hobbyroom I wound up filling the closet. God I realized I have 196 model kits to build lol. I will need to add more shelves in my hobby room to I have a feeling.Is there a cure ?

You may have a sickness, but I AM ADDICTED!!!
Scalper Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 I only have 2 one built and 1 stashed at my moms. happy trucking.
RodneyBad Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 For truck kits(Peterbilt, Frieghtliner,Kenworth,International,Ford,Dodge,GMC), I don't have that many but have picked up a few these last few weeks. I have a Beautiful looking Revell AG Kenworth W900 Wrecker (still sealed too)I bought 15+yrs ago I really Hope to build one day when I think I can do it Justice. Now when it comes right down to how many pickups I have, I like to think I have all that have been available these last 20+yrs. I did manage to build and give away the only Ford Ranger snap kits to my friends kids since they were able to be played with more than a glue kit. Just how many by the Numbers? I couldn't tell ya, 20-30 maybe out of 900 or so kits in my collection stash I mean, To-build stack. But whos counting?

tuffone20 Posted May 2, 2010 Author Posted May 2, 2010 Those aren’t trucks. They’re cars with longer chassis. Well don't try and tell Harry that because he said they are trucks and move it here, where it is for the most part about Big Rigs. But what do I know I'm just one of the little guys
Ben Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Well don't try and tell Harry that because he said they are trucks and move it here, where it is for the most part about Big Rigs. But what do I know I'm just one of the little guys That's disgusting! I can't believe you guys would hoard so many kits like that!!!! Have'nt you heard of self control?????? You should be ashamed!!!!!!! I buy a snap together, build it right away and give it away! Just like in my pics! www.public.fotki.com/lotso
Railfreak78 Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Oh hey Marty when you drop off a lil red express kit you can drop off the longbed Ford and all the Bigfoot kits too

I see you have what is probably a very rare kit. The lowboy with the CAT D8 combo kit. I don't have as many as some of you guys, but I do have stashes in 2 states. lol. There's a handful in my friend's attic in PA that I didn't get a chance to grab when I moved, although 90% of my collection is at home in MO with me.
highway Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 I know what ya mean!!! Looks I have to come out and visit you!!!

cargostar Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Two states??? How about two countries??? I've got close to 100 back in my parents basement in Toronto, and at least another 75 here in Iowa.....
Nick Winter Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Marty, does the Warlock have decals? If so could I get a picture or scan, I'm going to be building my favorite Dodge Special edition trucks, Warlock, Little Red, Midnight Exspress, Free Spirit, Southbounder, Round Up, Palomino, Macho Power Wagon, Top Hand, California Special, and a few more. God I think I have a Dodge truck problem. I think currently I have 15 sealed, 5 opened, 2 on the bench, and about 50 that other people considered junk, and gave me, and about 35 on my shelves. Two states??? How about two countries??? I've got close to 100 back in my parents basement in Toronto, and at least another 75 here in Iowa..... I could go get them.........................................................
