chuck540z3 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 As a relative newbie, I'll admit to having 4 assembled and 9 unassembled jet fighters, all in 1/32 scale. At roughly 2 models per year, this should take me awhile. Made: F-15B, F-15E, F-14D, F-18A (in progress) Unmade: F-14A, F-15C, F-15E, F-18C, F-18D, F-4J (X2), F-16 Block 50 and F-16 Thunderbird- with resin cockpits for all of them.

TonyH Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Are you nuts!!!! If I posted that and the wife caught wind of it,well it's to gruesome to think of the outcome B) I haven't counted in awhile,might scare me to see how much I have invested. I figure around 300 kits unbuilt and around 50 built. Tony and for Gods sake,DON'T TELL MY WIFE!!!!! :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PoseidonSv Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I have about 300 kits i guess all in 1/72 almost all different airplanes used in Gulf War 1990/91 and soon evey airplane ever used in the Swedish Airforce, that is quite many when there has been alot of different aircraft in different versions in both cases. The Gulf War specializing can be very big with all the different nosearts and individual markings that was used, so there is like 6 different F-14 waiting to be built. Just the different SW marked F-16C are about 10 right now.... I guess this is why I never wanted to build any bigger than 1/72 . Just imagine the 2 different versions i have of the KC-135 in bigger than 1/72 scale.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) All my unbuilt kits are on shelves that are on walls that face the exterior of my house (hope that makes sense). I am going to calculate the average "R" value of a kit box and see if I can claim an energy credit on my taxes for the cost of kits used to insulate my house. Hey, I could do worse...

pablo189 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Around 1100 in the stash, about 40 currently completed and presentable, 60+ in various stages of active progress and a great big box full of trashed builds from over the years (spares doners, accidents, not finished and never likely to be etc.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theplasticsurgeon Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 All spreadsheeted for total accuracy. 422 built - that includes a Victor in the MatchboxGB which had decals applied today. 137 unbuilt - that still includes 2 Phantoms that were painted earlier today. Mine move from unbuild to built, when I apply unit or identity markings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
