tuffone20 Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 I went to a hobby shop in Tempe that I hadn't been to in years. I picked up a few things while I was there.
RodneyBad Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 Well I went back to the Collectors store and found the last few kits I think I wanted. And a Trumpeter 60 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible.
tuffone20 Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 I just picked this stuff up tonight! And meet a great guy who is really into old cars and well anything to do with cars! I hope to be able to get some more kits from him soon!

stump Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 A late Christmas gift for myself.... 1/12 Tamiya Datsun 240ZG. Purchased late this arvo off ebay. Should be in my sweaty little paws within 2 weeks.
LVZ2881 Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 I picked this up today for $17.00. A friend just opened a new LHS here in town. I have never built a JoHan kit..so this should be interesting.... I have already emailed Fred Cady about finding some stock stripes... I'm going back next weekend after I get paid to pick up the JoHan 71 Cuda stret machine and several of the AMT 67 GMC stepside pickups.
gasman Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 used some Christmas money and bought a Model King 1972 Blazer, and Revell's excellent 1970 Mustang Mach 1
tuffone20 Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Here some stuff I picked up today. Has anyone built one of this kit? I haven't looked at it yet. <img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd220/tuffone20/100_9372.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /> <img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd220/tuffone20/100_9373.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /> This one I'll try and build like the one my older brother had, only his had a 66 front end on it! <img src="http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="ohmy.gif" /> <img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd220/tuffone20/100_9374.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /> Edited April 13, 2011 by tuffone20

crazyjim Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 My birthday present arrived Wednesday - 8 tubes of Kens Fuzzi-Fur from Scale dreams. I now have all the colors. Scale Dreams is going to be having a 1st year anniversary sale next month.
Clay Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 As soon as I get my return in I will be making a trip up to Charleston to Hobby Town USA with a portion of my "allowance" from it.
Rob Hall Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 This past week I got 3 new releases--the Revell '64 Ford Fairlane 2n1, '68 Bullitt Mustang, '08 Mustang Bullitt. Also, some resin parts from a few casters (some hoods, wheels, Modelhaus chrome for '72 and '73 Dusters) and one old kit--an MPC '27 Lincoln 2dr convertible....I had the AMT issue of the MPC '28 Lincoln phaeton, didn't realize the 2dr version existed until I stumbled upon it cheap. I've dabbled in the classic cars for years, not my main focus though, I do like them. Not modeling related, but looking forward to Barrett-Jackson this week..probably going to go either Friday evening or next Saturday. It was great last year, will be interesting to see how it is this year.
stump Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 My Datto arrived last Monday, man am I ever looking forward to tackling this big mutha.... Beside a Fujimi 1/24 version of the same... Also visited my local hobby store ( 2 & half hour drive each way..) to see my ol' mate Andy @ Scaleautomobilia.. Walked out after spending $70+ with two kits and some supplies under my arm... Grabbed the new '60 Starliner and a '62 Catalina 421SD, both excellent kits.
Harold Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Friday, I made it out to Dean's for the first time in almost two years and proceeded to go nuts (I had a bunch of cash that day...)

Now I need a couple more '65 Fords, a couple '66 Rivieras and a reissue of the '61 Galaxie from a few years back.
Clay Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 I got the Revell Muscle series 1969 Dodge Charger (Better platform for the General Lee), 2006 Concept Camaro, sheets of plastic, U-Channel strips and square stripes (Plastic).
