[ToyLvr]

I'm a bit late in posting, but I got a new grandson yesterday morning a little after 10AM Eastern. His name is Ben, and he weighed-in at 7#12oz, 21" long.

Hopefully a future model builder, and heir to my stash....

Thanks Tom & Carl,

Tom, the Omni kit is the 'Sidewinder' issue, not sure about that one now after I inspected this kit last night.....

Kit was sealed, so you would expect it to be okay......not

Never seen this before !

Yep, as others said, that's the risk you get buying older sealed kits. I've had a few like that to, sometimes it's windows and sometimes its the bodies themselves.

[martinfan5]

Yeah I thought that the Moonlight Modelers Club got them?

I do believe you are right.

Came home today and found a Big Box on my Back Door step.

Couldn't remember what I bought that was Soo big.

Now I remember..

[MyBradKeselowski]

That's a awesome and superbly detailed kit Rodney, I even put it past a Tamiya kit as far as detail goes but that's just my opinion.

I hope you will like it because I do mine, I have 10 of these waiting to be built and just now got started on building 1 of them.

Good luck with it and hope you enjoy building it as much as I am. :rolleyes:

Got this after waiting about 7 weeks. Been wanting this for a long time but at 70 bucks inc. shipping I just couldn't pull the trigger. Finally did. Just took a quick look at it and it looks great. Can't play with it as I am going out of state in about an hour. I really want to try do to a top notch job on this kit. Not sure I am up to the task. Please Lord don't let me screw it up ! : ) I may be looking for a painter to do the body. :

[crazyjim]

Looks great Ray. You want a painter? Contact Fatkidd - he's here on the forum and does FANTASTIC work.

AMT 62 Pontiac Catalina and a 71 Plymouth GTX. Both are nice, but I think the Catalina is a lot nicer kit.

[jrherald420]

Got 230 issues of Car modeler, Scale auto, Plastic Fantatic, model car journal and Model cars. Pretty sweet score for me!

[The70judgeman]

The most recent AMT '68 Plymouth Roadrunner molded in white from Model Empire. Not that I'm tired of HEMI's, but I may swap in a more common 383 and use some steelies I got from Casey a while back for the base model look.

This is the best find I have got in a long time.

The only thing missing is one tire, parts are in great shape and the glass is good.

I hope I did alright? Gave $10.00 for it!

[2000-cvpi]

That's a good deal. Congrats.

Any Johan kit for $10 is a good deal indeed! Wouldn't even hesitate.

So far my wife has fine with me buying kits but I have really slacked off.

My wife has never had an issue with me buying kits. Every so often I'll sell a few at a profit just to illustrate that they're not a bad investment. She knows the hobby is the center of my friends, and thus my sanity..

Then one day she asked me if I could show her how to use eBay and Craigs List... she pulled out four $200 plus purses she owned. I never noticed, probably my own disinterest, but I couldn't say a thing!

Id second that one...great find and deal.

[tbill]

James, nice score!

I suppose my wife isn't too bad about it really, but she does question why I need them stacked floor to ceiling, on shelves, and why I don't get them done faster, lol.
