What did you get today? (Model Car Related Items)

What's it like?

Its actually sorta neat,  and since  Ive found out the rear is correct and not out of scale ,its a 1 of  a kind Mickey Thompson piece,  this is actually a replica of his titianium frame Pinto ,   a rather detailed piece that builds nicely.   I just ordered Slixx decals for it today.

The orange is for the Transit,the blue - whatever and the a/brush for shells etc - it is a replacement for a damaged unit.

That "Revell" airbrush looks amazingly like my Badger 350. It also looks like a Chinese copy of the Badger 350 I bought at a flea market for $12 or $15. (I only use it to spray Future, and so far it's worked for that just fine.)

I was pleasantly surprised when opening this as it is NOT a kerbside and has a nice V12!

Got my order from Flintstone yesterday. Ordered the chopped 55 and the chopped A100 for a buddy of mine

I also asked if they could send me a replacement grille for the Matranga Merc that I have. The grille I had was missing a small piece of the corner. They sent me two for free.

They also sent me this.

Cool!

My Modelhaus order arrived! Ordered on May 15  about 5 months, expected over 6. 

 

49%20Cadillac%20Series%2062%20Fastback%2

49%20Buick%20Roadmaster%20Modelhaus%20DS

 

so long, Don and hope you have a long retirement

Two very cool cars. I love GM's fastback from that time period. More reasons I wish they were staying in business. My last order was put in about the same time as yours. I ordered their '67 Grand Prix convertible. Hopefully I see it soon then.

Was going to use it today but mislaid the bit that goes between the brush to connect it with my comp.....Very annoyed as I wanted to test out some Zero paints gloss black!

At a flea market today, found 2 of those "1/25 scale-ish" Hallmark Harley-Davidson Christmas Tree Ornaments:  the 1936 EL and the 2011 Street Glide Trike. Since others have asked about them, this is what they look like. Not bad, except for the obvious hanging-ring that will need to be cut off.

Cool..I have a Modelhaus order from May 15th I'm also waiting on...and ones from June 15th and July 3rd. 

Mine was May 15th as well - looks like my '56 Plymouth will have its interior soon, and my '61 T-bird promo will be complete. Watching the mailbox...

I also placed my last Modelhaus order back on May 19th and also ordered a '56 Plymouth interior which I'll be using in a '55 Plymouth promo.  I also ordered a '50 Nash kit, a '57 Desoto kit, a '57 Lincoln kit and a '59 Oldsmobile kit.  I'm very glad I placed the order when I did.

I started buying these Maisto diecast motorcycles for my son years ago when I was in my hardcore riding days.

Must have bought him at least a couple dozen cruisers from Harley Davidson to Yamaha & all sorts of customs.

Not really sure of the scale, but they look pretty close to 1/25th & the detail isn't bad.

Not sure if they sell a lot of these anymore, but they used to have dozens of different models.
