Ryan S. Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Here's our haul from this past weekend. Some new micro drill bits, assorted paints including some semi-gloss black, paid full price for the special edition 62, the 32 was marked only $13 at Hobby town so couldn't pass that one up as my girl friend wants to build it, got the 62 SS at Michaels for 40% off because the box was open, but everything was in it in sealed bags, the 39 Chevy I got at a flea market for $3- couldn't pass up that deal either, also got Donn's DVD which is fantastic-can't wait to put the method to the test!

martinfan5 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) This what I got today, I can tell you my order from Japan has still not arrived, dont think its going to The C6 R vette, and the flocking from ebay, I will tell you I paid way to much for the C6 R kit And this came home yesterday with my girlfriend, it was free!, she got it when she bought a new copier for her company, a $20,000 copier , great, one more thing to have to load in the truck Edited June 29, 2012 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennyg Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I ordered a 1/24 tamiya Subaru BRZ. I would love to get a real one, but having kids breaks the deal for that. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madisonwoodsmith Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Today was a good day. Got an engine detail kit and resin hood from Lex's Scale Modelling on the 'Bay. I have an 86 Elky that I will be starting in the next few days and I wanted to give wiring and plumbing a try. I've seen so many nice jobs here and am inspired to give it a shot. Hey, what's the worst that could happen?,,,cross some wires so it won;t start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny K Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Very pleased with a score I made about 2 AM this morning. Decided to stay up a bit longer for real-time bid and it's good I did - someone else had the same idea. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&item=280906876225&nma=true&rt=nc&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D280906876225%26_rdc%3D1&si=LYut591B88B2WqQli0fLXh9aDHc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Shipping is actually about half the estimated cost listed, so whole thing works out to just under 5 bucks a kit - only interested in about half of them, so I'm sure I'll get my money back.

2000-cvpi Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I bought three new colors of spray paint today. The best part it was at a discount store for .75 a can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galant409VR4 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Hey all So I went over to my dads place today and we got talking about model cars. I showed him some pics of my Shelby GT500. He was like Ill be right back and brought out these..... First Uploaded with ImageShack.us Second Uploaded with ImageShack.us Both kits seen to be all there all glass and chrome parts are still there and most parts are still on the trees. The decals for the camaro are missing and the ones for the Vette are thrashed. Is there a place were I can find directions and new decals for them? Then he was like you want em... Plus he gave me 1/25 Lindberg 66 Chevelle SS 1/25 Revell 68 Corvette L-88 1/25 Monogram 67 Corvette 427 Roadster 1/24 Monogram 70 Trans Am 455 X2 1/25 Revell Monogram Pro Modeler 69 Charger R/T These kits are all there with directions and decals. all and all it was a good day LoL Edited July 2, 2012 by Galant409VR4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Mike Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Daniel, your Dad had a nice little stash! As far as decals for the Camaro, I'd check with Keith Marks, but I'm not sure he makes them. I do know Model Car Garage makes a PE set for it (I've got one), the only thing it's missing is the 302 scripts. About the only kit in that "gift set" he gave you that would be considered a bad one would be the 70 T/A, and it's a pretty good kit, your Dad has good taste in kits!

Tonioseven Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I bought three new colors of spray paint today. The best part it was at a discount store for .75 a can. Those are some really decent colors. They make great basecoats for nail polish paintjobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxer Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 for casting That's interesting .. a 944 engine for casting (phone dial wheels too) I've been going thru these kits making the 3 944's I had, but only the '92 from this same kit. I cast the engine, well, bit larger one from the 968 kit, to use in the '92 .. it did have the 3.0 liter in it. This was my first casting job and was fun, despite the million bubbles I got! Will be interesting to see what you do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbwelda Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 those 944 wheels look particularly sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkeypuncher76 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 My irritation was when I went to use the 50% off coupon, and I was going to buy this one, so after waiting in line I am told its on clearance and couldn't use the coupon, ok no biggie, what irritated me is the fact that the model section is a disaster and nothing is marked, it would of been nice to know which kits are on clearance or not. I live right by the micheals at metro center, never any small testors or mm bottles, takes a year to get someone to open the spray paint cage(that sucks, you go in hoping to grab 1 maybe 3 quick things, no basket end up holding 10 things) then get to the register only to have issues with the coupons. But it's close and right now can't afford the "bench" on 19th, I miss the "real hobby lobby on 35th".. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scuderia Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Picked up the Heavy Chevy with the 40% off coupon. 13.50 after tax can't complain. Better than what I saw after ship on the 'Bay even. All the drag race parts are for trade if anyones so interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEENIX Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) I got the dukes of hazard kit "general lee".
