I’m sure I’m not alone in stockpiling unbuilt kits. thought not intentional, I think I have twenty or so kits that I have not yet touched (probably a low number compared to some other modelers here?!). [;)] this includes all models (planes, armour, sci-fi).
Just curious how many kits on average people have in the queue.
I have almost as much fun shopping for the models as I do building them!
I have about 250 to 300 unbult kits (includes accesories and updates/pe/resin sets).
I have been collecting various kits for about 15 years and intend to build each and every one of 'em.
But there are people here that have much more than I do.
What, no wingie thingies? Oh well, different strokes and all that.
My inventory list on the computator currently shows 314 kits on hand. No armor or boats, 4 1/25 Mack trucks, 22 1/25 cars, the rest aircraft, mostly 1/72. That is more than I will ever get built, but like most modelers, I buy more ocassionally and am always wishing for a bunch more.
Intriged by this question I decided to count my stash. At best I can tell I have 211 untouched non-railroad theme kits stuffed in my appartment. The railroad stuff is another story and for another forum. I think I need to sign-on to a couple group builds!!! [:D]
I have 150-200 unbuilt kits in the stash with 2 in progress.
Tamiya’s 1/35th 75mm Pak40 anti-tank gun and Trumpeter’s 1/35th
Leopold K-5 Railway gun.

Wow, some of you guys have a lot! As best i can remember (im not actulay home to count them) i have three armor and maby 11-15 aircraft models lying around.
I have around 80 kits in my stash. That should do for the next 15 years, so it won’t even last me till reteriment!
I have got a full listing at my website http://m.1asphost.com/svankreijl/rgrob/
The site isn’t finished, so don’t expect to much.
This question was also asked in the general part of the forum, you should have a look at some of the replies. Some of these guys have their own private hobby store!
I have about 40 kits lying around the appartment here in Canada, but I probably have another 250 or so 1:144, 1:72 and 1:48 + 1 1:24 Spitfire at my mothers house in Norway (She’ll be a happy camper when I finally take all of those away!)
I have about 10. When I first really got into the hobby 1-2 years ago, I said I would only have the one I am working on, so I am trying very hard to not buy any more until I build some of these. However, this weekend there is a model show / contest at a local shop with 20% of discount…Give me strength[:)]

Holy Ol’ Golden, some of you guys need to talk to my wife, she thinks that 15, between the auto and things with wings, is way too much. Hell, I need to stop shopping and start purchasing. Do kits with more than one model count as one, or the number of models in the box? Cause I got 3 or 4 with multiple models in each. AMT 1/72 Blue Angels set is the one that comes to mind right now, 4 F/A-18’s and of course the base and plexi stand to go with.
Around 75, mostly aircraft. I think I buy at a ratio of 3 to everyone built. Hard to believe but at one time I only bought one kit at a time and would not buy another until that one was finished. Is there some type of disease associated with this hobby that makes one buy? I have a friend that has around 1,000 kits and is afraid to put one together!
