Pat, that Orange Hauler sure brings back some memories. I remember seeing that on the store shelves when I was a kid thinking that was one crazy looking car!
I picked up this set yesterdayā¦
You mean that station on the rear right. I believe that been missing for years, before Bovvy got there hands on it. I am not sure if its the result of damage recieved when it was fired at in 1944. That might cause it to to lean slightly. The suspension looks pretty good, if that had gone you would know about it.
Stik, I feel an allied diorama coming on!
I just checked my photos. For some reason I thought it was supported by wooden blocks, but thatās the Munster Tiger II, Bovingtonās cat is still sitting on its own suspension.
However, there are actually two wheel stations missing on the right side.
The stance looks perfectly fine on the left, but itās a bit of a mess on the right side:
I couldnāt find a photo that shows the lean properly, but itās there and very noticeable if you stare at it long enough.
Thanks Mopar Madness, we donāt see many āoldā US kits here so we have to grab them when we can!
Now to build the already Orange one as per the box art/instructions, and the āGreyā one as perhaps something totally different!
Bought these two at the IPMS Roscoe Turner in Indianapolis last weekend
Iāve been looking for this for a long time now. Found the J first and thought well I might be able to back date it to the Nam era then on the last row of vendors I found the A so picked it up since it was the one I was really wanting. Might sell or trade the J. Also won 5 kits gave two away to teens who had entered something into the contest, A MIG 15 and a 1/72 F-22. Here are the other 3 
I know nothing about moderen jets or even what that last one is except its British with South Korean markings.
Clint, the Hawk is primarily a trainer aircraft. The Mk. 67 is one of a number of export versions, this one being specfically for S. Korea. the Koreans retired them a few years back.
The Hawk has been around since the mid 70ās and is best known as the current mount of the Red Arrows.
That Hawk looks like a great kit! I bet itās much better than the Airfix equivalent.
Hey Brother! You wouldnāt want to get rid of the Phrog ? If so maybe we can work out a trade or sale for it. I flew on the Phrog many a time while I ws based at K-Bay. My email is captlhcole91 @gmail.com
Along some various paints I got the new Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire and the new Tamiya Sheridan in 1/35 scale. I did their old Sheridan, oh, 35 years ago. Itās not my favorite vehicle by a long shot, but it looks good enough. I think that the Acameny kits are nice as well. (I never have compared a model to paper drawing, close enough is my philosophy.)
Bish: Thanks for the info Iām probably going to trade or sell it but now I know what it is.
Looks like Iām geting back into German armor again. Got this on a Deal of the Day special for around $38. This is my first Takom kit and taking a peep inside the box, Iām blown away by the number of sprues and parts. Very impressive kit.
Great deal on that Panther it looks to be a fantastic kit
Thats a good deal for that kit. I am not into the full interiours myself and am leaning more towards the meng kits, but both companies seem to be taking the lead on armour subjects.
Agreed, both Meng and Takom are really stepping up their game lately. I like Meng a bit more personally, simply because of the modular approach they decided on for their German armor kits.
Nice grab! I almost bought the other Panther offering on that deal of the day. This is the one with the clear turret, correct?
And I do like the idea of an interior, Iād like to build one where the top half of the hull in not attached to show the interior.
Just a couple of new additions.
But the b25 a years back. Is the intruder 1/48? How is the kit? I did the revelle one a while ago and would like to see a nicer kit.
