Our Latest Acquisitions Since 2017

The F-19 was. I got a refund on the Tomcat. It was in bad shape. But now I have spare parts!

Those are quite a haul! That 1/32nd Bronco looks really fun and so does that ship.

I’ve been eyeballing that CH-53. I really wanted the Marine Corps version but it is out of production and stupidly expensive ($425) on ebay which I’ll never do. You really maxed out the AM stuff which I would totally do as well.

Something you going to build soon?

Wow! I just paid $35 for the F4U on a black friday sale at Andy’s. You got a screaming deal. Have you started on it yet? I’m really curious.

There’s a story there… I had the Corsair previously and had it mostly complete when I noticed that the canopy was deformed. It was a fun build up to that point. It will be a while before I get back to it. I have 2 kits on the bench now and a list of others ahead of the Corsair.

Interesting story, betting you checked this one first? I have all of my builds scheduled through 2026 which sounds a little obsessive when I type it up like that.

Nice haul! Great discount from Hobby Lobby. I did that Slammer a couple years ago - they are pretty fun little kits but be prepared to clean up flash.

Nice, I’ve built the 34 slammer. It was a long time ago though.

The FedEx guy dropped this off today.

I have to find more time to build. The collecting part of my hobby is outpacing the building part to the level that I’ve run out of storage for the unbuilt kits.

Looks like a great kit, I often really like those old Revell pro modeler kits, they do a nice job with them.

Agreed! And it comes with paint! Who doesn’t need free paint? It can’t be more than 30 years old. Should still be good, right?:thinking:

Yes, especially NMF paint, I’m sure that looks perfect through an airbrush after you strain it.

UPS delivered this yesterday. It’s my first Heller kit.

That’s going to look great! Are you going to do a build log/WIP thread?

Thanks Eric! I might do that - I’ll have to learn how (I’m still new to FSM).
