Scooby Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I’m betting it will be a special well thought out choice. Thanks for the inspiration. I think I have built three Phantoms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Well, only around 130 still exist. Ditched a good 60 of my really old 1/72 builds to make room for new ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But with the photo bucket rip off attempt of 2017 I can not be bothered looking for it. Maybe when I finish #200 (tomorrow) I will do a big dust up elephant walk.

phantom Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 One elephant walk. took 6 hours to dust everything. 130 Phantoms remain of the 200. Problem now is room. For every 1/48 Phantom, 2 1/72 now go bye-bye. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joel_W Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Phantom, I'm speechless. I've never seen a collection of Phantoms approach anything in scope to yours. BTW, congrats on the chair. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
