Yeah, those are some true resin classics there.

Me too, I have one over an hour away but they are open very limited hours and I don’t get there much.
There is an IPMS Seattle club meeting this Saturday and sometimes I can get to the hobby shop before they close after the meeting.
Per your request, this set looks fun to build. The manual is great and the plastic seems very clean. Mostly USAF stuff with one that could also be USN.

Technically, it’s not an “acquisition” yet but I got a sales ad from Squadron today and they’re taking pre-orders on the Trumpeter 1/200 Fletcher class destroyer with the catapult. There goes another New Year’s resolution down the drain!

Yeah, it is kind of surprising because I have since discovered you can buy completely finished versions of these same vehicles for about $15 each from the AM companies. But what is the fun in that right?
Yes, agree. I’m currently searching for that kit for myself. Just for all of the components and PE included.

I found it at Andys hobby in Phoenix. Their price was good and they delivered quickly.
Gary’s hobby in Phoenix ?
Do they have a website?

Surprise addition to the collection that I wasn’t expecting. I traded one A-10 kit for this at a IPMS club meeting today.
I had no idea this version was available but I love two seater, unusual aircraft and the A-10 is one of my favorite aircraft so it was a win-win.

That is so cool. Do I read it correctly that it is 2/5 scale?
Yes, I read that too. I haven’t even opened up the box yet. I will tonight or tomorrow tho
I’m confused, a model kit of a video game console, in 2/5 scale? I had no idea.
Looking forward to hearing how it goes. I’d love a good F-111 kit.
Yeah, me neither! My friend just sent it to me
