58 Impala Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Picked up the Tamiya Ferrari F60 kit at my local HobbyTown for $25, the kit retails for $84. I think I got a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanesteele240 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Won this on ebay. 100 bucks. The block buster kit is worth that alone. More than likely gonna sell that mustang. Or i may just keep ot for a quick build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueoval92 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Man its been a while since ive been on but i have a very good reason. I got lucky some how and bought myself a 1:1 1966 mustang coupe all original rust lol. She aint pretty but she is very fixable. Only problem is no title so she gets to spend a nice 3 months on my buddys tow yard so i can make it all legal and legit. OH and the best part is i got it for $50!!!!! Thank you crazy people and their loss of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanesteele240 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 The brock buster is the bre datsun kit with regular seats and dash board. It was realsed in the 1970's. revell re-released it in the late 90's as part of the tuner series. That is the blue one with a huge datsun hamburber on the hood.

Roadkill2525 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I think I only paid $10 for one of the 240Z kits, the rest are from trades or raffles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Turner series version is the Brock Buster kit, just rebox , the Brock Buster is the street version of the BRE version So in a sense, it is the BRE version with stock options http://dimequarterly...collectors.html Edited October 16, 2012 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High octane Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 While I've never been on EVIL-bay, a friend of mine saw this for me and I gave in as I used to follow drag boat racing and Unlimited Hydroplane racing back in the 90's and have lots of reference photos to build a drag boat. I've already built this kit in the early 80's and now I'm itchin' to build a liquid quarter miler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathgoblin Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Got a pre-built Monogram Lamborghini Countach. surprisingly not glue bombed. I just got it in yesterday, and it's already completely apart. nothing broken and the clear pieces are in good shape. All I gotta do is build a new tail light panel, which should be pretty easy.

jaydar Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Picked up a 1/100 RX-178 Gundam MkII in Titans colors for $20, missing insructions but already printed out some from Hobby Search. I got a different Gundam, same scale though, for my birthday many years ago. My father in law and son started it but never finished. I am slowly taking it apart cleaning up attachment points and will glue and paint it. I am having so much fun with it i have chosen another.
