eng Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Oh I forgot to add I nearly came away with a Revell F-16B as well, had it in my hand and everything, but resisted. Is it as good as the Mlu kit is? Eng Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Chladek Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I had a very good day yesterday. I went in to pick up my prepaid preordered Ginter book on the RA-5C Vigilante and they also got some new kits in that I couldn't leave without. For starters, I purchased the Trumpeter "Chinese New Fighter" (J-10 I believe) and followed it up with the Revell Challenger CL604. Then before heading out the door, I spied the new Hobbycraft Snowbirds Tutor. I'm happy, but my pocketbook isn't. :P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Hobbycraft 48th scale Tutor!!!!! Phantom....which edition of Combat Aircraft did you get???? Last one I got was with the QF-4's on the cover....that was a few weeks ago. It has a Skyhawk from Brazil on the cover. It just arrived.

Pete Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Revell F-16b (1/72) Italeri F-5a (1/72) And the thing is, I just wanted to buy 2 jars of paint, but I couldn't find them. And you can't leave without buying something, that wouldn't be polite to the shopowner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I didnt buy anything but......... I dropped off my 1/48 scale C-130 Herc at air support hobbies. Its so big I had to leave one of the wings off to fit in the case. <_< Its below a truely amazing 1/32 A-10 that someone else did that puts everything I have ever built to shame. :( Mind you its still the only silver and white Canadian herc I have yet to see built. Wont ever win any competitions thats for sure. but its still kind of cool. And most important it would never have been done without Emil's help on finding the right size roundels and numbers. thanks again Elmo!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smithery Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Took the day off "sick" today (terminal AMS), and ran a bunch of errands. 1) Goodbye snow tires! :D 2) Car wash, vaccum - shortly followed by seagull "bomb" on drive home ;) 3) Head to bank to deposit a couple of MO's from recent sales. 4) And finally, as a payday treat to myself: 1:32 Trumpeter F4F-4 Wildcat Razor saw set Quote Link to post Share on other sites
