knarf Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 hey everyone, thename is frank and i'm a model builder of about 35yrs. this is my first post here and i wanted to give mad props to a guy i met on e-bay while shopping for old discontinued kits. this guy had the Revell "Swamp Monster" kit in large scale for only $30! needless to say i jumped on that and am currently enjoying building it. i never was able to get one back in the day due to money ,or rather shortage there of, but i've got one now and i wanted to say thanks to the guy who sold it to me so "without any further ado and with no more guilding of the lilly"... THANKS GREGG!!! I really appreciate the deal you gave me on this awesome kit! regards, frank

JamesW Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 You're closer to Grand Rapids than I am. If you haven't yet you should check out Rider's Hobby Shop. Haven't been to that one yet, but when there was one here they had a HUGE selection. Also, if you ever make it to Ypsilanti, stop into the Model Cave. Great people and a nice selection of OOP kits as well as aftermarket and a LOT of Jap kits.
Kaleb Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Is that really how you spell Ypsilanti? Wow I've been way off lol. My dad is from there. What scale is that? I just checked the build out. Edited March 15, 2013 by Kaleb
rhs856 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) owosso I grew up in Ovid! Also, I second Rider's. But make sure you go to the one in GR; it's nicer than the one in Flint and they have an amazing selection. I was able to stop in last year when I visited the fam. Edited March 15, 2013 by rhs856
