Let's see your geegaws!

I got the stovetop in mine but its next to the sink.  I only got the top part of the hood. That pile of logs still has me baffled unless there was a camping version as well.

Perhaps this was mentioned earlier, but there is a three-piece barricade and a fire hydrant in the original issue Gangbusters MPC '32 Chevrolet Cabriolet/Panel Truck:

That funny-looking thing beside the hydrant is a mail bag, with "US MAIL" stamped in it, no less.  Also in your pic, the machine gun and its tripod. The figures in the kit are a uniformed cop and a gangster.  (Or innocent bystander.)  I found that kit, complete with just a little assembly, at a local flea market for a VERY good price.  Here's the geegaws and figures sprue:

I believe these are now standard with the purchase of any new Citroën.

Your go carts look great!

This is a fun thread; so much stuff that I never knew existed! Thanks (or curses?!) to Casey for showing those old instruction sheets from the '62 Impala convertible and the '63 T-bird. Both of those ( especially the T-bird ) are treasure troves of custom parts, and now I want one of each. Dang it, I think my wallet just had a mild stroke.

The '50 Ford Convertable customizing kits also came with a couple of cinder blocks.

The AMT '34 Ford pickup has two (maybe four?) CMU/concrete masonry units/concrete blocks, too, as well as an engine stand, tool box, and more:

It's still present, at least according to the instruction sheet from the 2018 reissue:

Also just noticed Round2 re-created the hydraulic jack and miniature '34 Ford Pickup, and included them in the '34 Ford Pickup kit:

Didn't the '34 also include an engine hoist that looked a bit like a swing set?
