wow. this seems like one of those "waiting is the best policy" times!

Not to be too nitpicky.. but it's 'nitpicky'. Jack :)

Don.. did you get your airbrush yet?

I got an email from Don this morning saying that he had been away on business since midweek last week.. maybe things will work out now. hth Jack

Chuck.. I emailed you earlier from your post on HS. After I got your reply, I forwarded your email address to airhead in a 'reply' to an email I got from them a few days ago. Maybe it'll help... won't hurt. Jack

Good to see these on the way... ordered mine!

I emailed him yesterday just after lunch and haven't heard back yet. Jack UPDATE: Got email a few minutes ago.. Nice guy. Has a lot more arriving next week, along with other stuff. Jack

From Sprue Bros.... 2 1/32 Hobbydecal sheets 3 1/48 Hobbydecal sheets 1 Osprey book WWII Aircraft Carriers

No, Mario... they're the new Pez Dispensers! Jack

I agree with everything you say except this comparison doesn't fit.. 1982 Toyotas aren't still on the car lots being sold as new cars. And I won't be getting rid of my Hasegawa kits either! Jack

They're available at Sprue Brothers now.. 6 in stock! Click! Jack

That's right! Please, everybody... note the date and time and what you were doing!

Looks great Darren! Even with the tape!

The Omni is a great AB.. with that needle size is probably one of the best all-round useful ABs on the market.

Actually, I think there were 3, but an employee bought the other one. I just found my invoice.. 02 October, 2006.. 2 @ 22.99 plus shipping. jack

I would guess the .15 would get the least amount of use with me. I went ahead and ordered the .2mm so I wouldn't have to pay extra shipping if I find the .15 too small. Jack

A friend just ordered one today.. seems expensive.

I guess I'm lucky.. I ordered 2 as soon as I saw the notice and got them within a week. jack

Have you called them to see if you have a backorder for those kits?

edited into non-existence!

from Sprue Bros: 2 - 1/48 Hase F-86 1 - 1/48 Hase USMC PPHHHANTOM! replenishments for my dwindling Alclad supply various Steel Beach bits Eduard masks & a couple of pits .. and a partridge in a pear tree.

I don't think many people would doubt that the Hasegawa Tomcat is a superior kit. And if you're going to pay $40, no matter about the tax, and you can afford the initial outlay, then buy the Hasegawa. But that's not convenient for everybody. I think the key to enjoying the Academy Tomcat is to not pay $40 for it. The 2 Bombcats I have came from Sprue Bros for $28.49 with no tax and no freight. I've got a few of the older kits from HL 50% off sales, and then some really cheap ones from ebay. My avg on Academy Tomcats is less than $18, including the new ones. (Cost averaging, mind you, but it's

I'll buy 4 as soon as they are in stock at Sprue. Maybe another 1 or 2 later. and maybe a little extra CA also to make sure the nose doesn't fall off!! :lol: Jack

Jim.. Sprue Bros. has it for $28.49. Jack
