My local WalMart store with their awesome customer service , refunded my money on a non working gift card with out me having a receipt, probably helped that they were able to find my transaction in the system.

Stopped by my LHS (which in this case is a HobbyTown) and was struck by how many great old models have been re-issued, and how many newer ones are available from folks like Moebius. There's more variety in models on the shelves now than I'd ever thought I'd see again. Only downer was that the HO train-car kits were almost all gone, and have been really light at this store for years now.

Couple years ago I bought a Corvette "junkyard" off eBay that turned out to have a restorable original AMT '73 Corvette Coupe body in it--but no hood or front bumper. No other currently available Corvette parts fit and Modelhaus doesn't repop these. Last Sunday I scored a reasonably priced unbuilt AMT '75 roadster on eBay. It arrived today and the hood and front bumper seem to be perfect fits. Better yet, I now won't even have to scrounge up chassis, engine, etc for the project--I seem to have everything I need to go.

I'm glad that we bought all of our rolling stock kits when we did.

We bought probably fifty kits, mostly Bowser ones, for about $5 a piece when they were on sale.

I wish I could say the same about car kits in model shops here in the UK. :(

I'm pleased that I didn't have a TON of snow to plow in my driveway this morning. The temps are really cold and my body is getting older whether I like it or not.

The problem here is that there is snow on my driveway and sidewalk, but not enough to use my snow blower! That means shoveling... ugh!

First off I woke up on this side of the dirt and had a fairly good day despite it being busy. Then got to come home to my family and spend some time with them. In short..............I'm well pleased.emotion-11.gif

Woke up to 68 degree temps and it's my Friday.

Got a package yesterday with the wrong kit in it. Simple mistake as the kit numbers are close between the one I ordered and the one they sent. One email later and I am informed the right kit is in the mail and they sent a prepaid FedEx label to ship the other back.

Not bad, not bad at all.
