Ummm, I added 3 to my stash as well.
Meaning you didn’t buy more kits?
More like buying more than initially planned.

Black Friday finds. I’m a USMC aircraft kind of guy, so when these went on sale at Andy’s and he was tossing in a bunch of free stuff, I pulled the trigger.
Why is the photo rotated 90 deg clockwise? Bugs me!

Over on Facebook, Daniel J Wheatcraft has a US P-47 in RAF paint. Someone commented that it’s a in field paint job and that was the only paint available.
Seeing your paint jars made me think that you were going in that direction with your P-47.

Picked this up last week, the old Monogram F-16 in good ole red, white, and blue
I remember building this soon after my parents had divorced and my mom moved us to a small town an hour south of Houston, where we had been living. I was abouty 10. Always thought the F-16 was a really sleek looking fighter, and in this paint configuration, it always looked incredibly sharp. When I found this on eBay last week, I couldn’t resist.

Went to the hobby store today. All I came out with was a small package of Woodland Scenics brand model railroad coal to use for my B-2 Christmas bomber project.
Why? Because…

I got this ICM Model A two days ago and I’ll start work on it after I finish my Revell '70 Challenger. I’ve really liked the ICM kits for antique cars and looking forward to doing another.

It isn’t here yet, but I’m getting a 1/48 Kinetic S2 Tracker later this month.
Recently when cleaning out my late MIL’s jewelry boxes, I came across her POW bracelet and decided to continue to honor LCDR Forman’s memory with a Stoof in the markings of his, lost in early '66. Continuing with the “mostly it’s in the stash because there’s a story behind it” theme…

After an Academy disaster and a mediocre Italeri kit, I’m hoping 3rd time’s the charm when it comes to F-104s…

My last purchase before Santa comes a calling is an oldie that I have never built, Revell’s Hawker Hurricane Mk. I in 1/32.
I got this on a sale from Kitlinx. The box is fairly beat up, and the instruction booklet looks like it was in a losing battle with some paper-eating bug army. The decals actually look okay for their age, roughly 57 years or so, but I’ll probably get a new aftermarket set.
When I was a kid, the hobby shops in the Houston, TX area typically stocked Monogram, Revell, Lindberg, and Aurora. Mostly I stuck with Monogram, but the 1/32 series of WWII aircraft by Revell was always a special thing for me. I built their P-40 Flying Tiger / Aleutian Tiger many times. The Spitfire, Bf109, Stuka, P-47, P-51, and Wildcat probably came across my work area (kitchen table in those years) more than once as well. But I never saw the Hurricane, or don’t recall seeing it after all these years. So I’m pretty excited to add this one to my stash.

I built a Hasegawa Lutwaffe F-104 sone time ago,I remember a straight forward build with no issues.
In case you need the instructions:
Now I have to know what the quickieeeee (real spelling not allowed…dirty minded suppression filter) stikies are 
It was one of those paper inserts kits often included that you could mail in for a set of stickers, basically.
