OldNYJim Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 Got some nice photoetch by Highlight Model Studio in the mail - excited to get to use these! Some of them will probably end up on that Beetle they’re in front of… 3

Bill Eh? Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 I know this one is a stretch, but... Mods, if you need to move it, go right ahead. 3 5
HomerS Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 Always had a thing for the odd/unusual subject matter. Picked this up F/S for less than $20 at a local toy store 4
TarheelRick Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 Attended the Mid-Carolina Swapmeet today, besides selling off several oddball kits that I would never build I brought these home. 8

This is technically not a car - but it has wheels. Today I got this 1/9 Protar Norton Manx. It's mint but the box lid is a bit rough. I can live with it. The seller included a very cool Model Cars mag from 1969. I'm betting some of you might have pictures or articles in there. Oh baby...one of the few real bikes I still lust after...but a big-scale model would sure be fine. Nice score. 1

Daddyfink Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 My LHS finally got some, and they are gone!! And apparently already on backorder 4
oldcarfan Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 (edited) After ordering online from Lionheart Hobby in Kyle, Texas a few months ago, I got a chance to visit in person. Good people! My oldest son will be going to Texas State in the Fall and so we went to tour the campus. Being it was cold and windy, we just hit the basics. That left me time to make the 20 minute drive to Lionheart. This is my new haul from them. I bought different versions of the Subaru online from them, but couldn't pass up the chance for another. The Lincoln is a reissue of one from my youth that I tried to convert to stock with not a lot of success. I'm going to try to recreate that build with parts from a Thunderbird if I can. No plan for the Mark IV, I just had one a long time ago and messed it up. Edited February 20, 2024 by oldcarfan 2
A modeler named mike Posted February 20, 2024 Posted February 20, 2024 From last week, the sealed Red Light Bandit from an eBay auction and the '50 Ford was from Perry's toy exchange which is about 40 mins away. I found them on ebay.. Who knew? I sure didn't, but I do now. Saves on shipping and gets me out of the house.. ? 3

They very closely resemble the originals and have all that nostalgia feel and build style to them, but none of them utilize any tooling from the originals. All of those tools were modified back in the 60s and 70s (for the Demon). 1
