Rob Hall Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) I suspect US vendors get very few of the Ebbro kits, and they sell out fast. Never looked for them from US vendors, I always pre-order them from Hobby Link Japan. Edited April 11, 2018 by Rob Hall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should start using Hobby Link Japan again, at least for the more exotic kits. Used to order from them pretty often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) Yeah, I use HLJ pretty much for all my import kit purchases...hard to beat their selection and convenience..and love the private warehouse feature for saving and grouping items together for shipments.

Rob Hall Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Got a set of tires from Scale Productions today, pretty quick from Germany--ordered last Friday. Then even included a decal and some Haribo gummys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears not...I remember reading the Amazon reviews of the sugar free variety..they can have..interesting..side effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxer Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 This is a new item from Micro-Mark to square up 90 and 45 cuts and I'm wondering how I ever did without it. just clamp rounds and flats in and use a file to square it off. This is the small which could handle most of the small tubes I use. There is a larger one also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 corvette kit is missing the 65 corvette coupe but I have one of those already. I have to stop buying as I have 100 kits in the basement to build. I should start learning to air brush. :-) Edited April 11, 2018 by ewetwo spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I have really been getting interested in wooden kits lately . Very different than plastic to be sure . I need to learn a lot but came across this kit and had to have it . Can I build it ? I don’t know but will have to get more experience before starting it. It’s a wooden Russian submarine from the early 1700 . Little more than a wooden cask for the most part . My research shows it was not very successful . Looks like a nice kit but again the instruction although better than the kit I am working on now there still is text I can not read .

iamsuperdan Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Pretty stoked. Won this on EBay this week. Easily 1/3 the cost of any other one I've found. Bags sealed, mint condition. Can't wait to start this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartimaeus5000 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Today I recieved the bad news that the model I bought online couldnt be sold as it was severly damaged luckily I was refunded and I got this one at the closest thing to a "hobby store" thats near me. And yes I was too anxious to wait to get home to open it so I did in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
