THANK YOU FSM!! I bought a bunch of your magazines - will be my first time reading them and they already look so cool! And also a great way to help soothe my modeling addiction 
. Thank you so much for this generous gift, especially because I can’t afford to buy all the fancy modeling paints and weathering stuff with my meager allowance. I’m so excited to use this stuff ahhhh thank youu

Thank you FSM and Firecrown!
You can never can have enough tweezers, clamps, cutting implements, or options for weathering. Your generosity has augmented my toolbox nicely.

Arrived a few days ago. I spent a bit extra, beyond the $100.
The magazines are the complete 2024 issues.
Thanks FSM!
Cheers,

To the powers that be…. I’m already at 542 points on the May “Leaderboard” as of May 2nd. You might need to adjust that.
Cheers,
Mark

Oh man. Went from 680 to 66 just like that. LOL.
Figured there was something like that going on with the back end. Thank you for getting it fixed.
I hope I don’t sound greedy because that’s absolutely not where I’m coming from. Can you tell me when to expect the email with April’s rewards? After reading about them going to spam, I don’t want to miss it. This will be my first time receiving one.

Usually happens at some point within 10 days or so of the new month. It’s still a very new program so I wouldn’t start counting days. You’ll get a congrats email from Angela Cotey letting you know it’s on its way. And don’t delete anything from trains.com, as that’s who’ll be sending the actual gift card.

Points & Rewards Program Update!
Hey FineScale community!
We’re making an exciting change to the Points & Rewards Program—and it means even bigger prizes for our most active members!
Here’s what’s new:
- The points tiers will stay the same (so keep earning those points!).
- If you qualify for any tier at the end of the month, you’ll be entered into a randomized drawing.
- Each month, 3 winners will be chosen.
- Winners will receive a $200 virtual gift card to the Finescale Shop!
We’re planning to test this new format for the next 1–2 months, so this is your chance to get involved and potentially win big just for doing what you already love—posting, reading, and engaging with the community.
As always, you can track your points in the Leaderboard (left menu) or your profile.
Good luck and happy posting!

The Finescale link doesn’t seem to be working. I can’t get/view the site.
Can you specify which link you’re clicking?
I just clicked on the link in your post above and it doesn’t appear to work. Is the shop.finescale.com site active?
Checking into this - more to come
