Harry Joy Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Man, I'd love to get my hands on some of those.I got an AMT 1962 Thunderbird today.
Mr mopar Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I got the MCP Elegant farmer show rod cool!
StevenGuthmiller Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Christian, it may have been easier to show us what you "didn't" get! Nice haul! Steve
disabled modeler Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 WOW...!...Nice haul..! Is the Motor City series Torino and Chevelle kits curbside..?
Junkman Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Yes, all MCS kits are curbside, despite some have the hoods moulded separately.I do own the Monte Carlo, so after this frenzy, I'm now only missing the LTD to have the entire series.Onced this is achieved, I'll do a public slagging in the review section.

My family owned many real cars like them plus I like promo like kits anyway...to me there underrated.
Junkman Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I like promo based kits so much, that they are meanwhile pretty much the only vintage kits I'm after.Thanks to being underrated, they are more affordable than comparable annuals.It's also highly unlikely that they ever get reissued, IMO a big mistake the manufacturers make.

I think its a big mistake for any company to underrate these kits there in demand by young and old builders. Thanks to some of the companies we do get some here and there like the AMT 61 Ford Galaxie,70 Buick Wildcat,etc. Id buy any of the Motor City issues they would bring re-issue...they were great kits just like the old Johan snaps were. I have a obsession for these kits and promos myself...would be nice to see them again sometime.
Can-Con Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Picked up this kit at an estate sale yeaterday. There were an amazing number of '80s and '90s issue Fujimi, Tamiya and Hasagaua sports car kits there. LeMans cars, formula1 cars, european touring cars etc. Multiples of about every Fujimi Porsche "enthusiast model" kit for $35 [CDN] a peice. Not a great price but still cheaper than the bay.
64SS350 Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 My trip out today, '67 Camaro is in anticipation for C1 parts to make 'Bumblebee'
Roadrunner Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Compared to some here, my acquisitions are pretty small, however, they do please me. To that end, I just received this '69 GTX in a trade. It has a minor issue, but I'm confident that that'll get sorted out.
DanR Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Found the 1/12 Foose Camaro at Hobby Lobby in Bristol, CT and used a 40% off coupon. I was quite pleased!
Art Anderson Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I got this one! http://images55.fotki.com/v648/fileyYGK/efc4c/3/43743/9297485/Moebius61Ventura11.jpg Art

lordairgtar Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I went to Model Empire yesterday just to see what was in. I went through the vintage kit section and found a 1/32nd scale All Star series 60 Thunderbird. With my luck Round 2 will now re release that old kit. Looking for the others.
DanR Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I got this one! http://images55.fotki.com/v648/fileyYGK/efc4c/3/43743/9297485/Moebius61Ventura11.jpg ArtI love the retro box art.
Dann Tier Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I just won a kit on ebay. ive been drueling over this 1/24 Lamborghini Urraco for a while, but it was 140.00 buy it now. the seller keeps putting it on, but no one buys it, then the other day I saw ANOTHER seller with one still sealed!! long story short, got it for 27.00!!!! I couldn't believe it!!
Roadrunner Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Couldn't help myself!That's so cool. I've got one bookmarked for a future purchase, over at the Auto World site.
disabled modeler Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Couldn't help myself! Jesse...Where did you find that at...?...its too cool not to have.
1930fordpickup Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Couldn't help myself! I had to wait a week for mine to ship. I was hopping it would show up before the family dinner. I had ordered a couple kits for the Nieces and Nephews along with my 2 bobble heads. A skeleton and Spider Man figures.
Daddyfink Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Jesse...Where did you find that at...?...its too cool not to have.I found it at Burbank's House of Hobbies, and oddly enough, in Burbank, CAThey only had a couple in stock and I went ahead and grabbed one. I know that Auto World has them and I might order another one from them, but, getting one instantly and without shipping charges was great!
unclescott58 Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Couldn't help myself! I got one a few weeks ago too. The Kat has always been kool. When Round 2/Auto World offered this on line I couldn't resist.
