Well, no doubt everyone’s getting a model or two or more for christmas… My first one came in the mail courtesy of my brother… AFV’s M18 Hellcat TD… (It was opened under protest of my wife)… so let’s see what everyone gets.
(This may be my only post in this thread as models are not popular here[B)] )
Won’t be any for me. My fiancee refuses to buy me one for xmas as she thinks I have to many as it is. Bah!!
The rest of the family still thinks that models are for little kids so no dice there.
However there is good ole cash that I usually get so I will make up for it I am sure.
I scored early. I took advantage of Greatmodels sale and got: Tamiya’s Cromwell, Tamiya’s M2A2 Bradley, Dragon’s Pak40 and Dragon’s King Tiger Henschel.
I’m trying to figure out what I can make with a lump of coal? I went crazy during the GM sale like Tigerman, so thats what I’m getting I’m pretty sure. Semper Fi, mike
im getting dragon’s 251 w/pak 40 for the 25th. that and the nice little mini tool to boot.
I’ll be letting you know on Christmas day![:D]
I have a feeling I am getting the Tasca Luchs, well, at least I hope![:P]
[:D]i dont think i will get any models at christmas,i still have about 40 kits to build[:I]. merry xmas all,have a great time[:D]

The members of the Nordland AMPS club gave me Trumpeter’s 1/35 scale LCM (3) landing craft as a combination Christmas present and going away present.
Nice gift, Rob. I am getting a few from different people- the Dragon DAK Pz I and the Tiger (P), StuG IV, Elefant and don’t kick me out of the forum but the new Tamiya F-16.
No armor kits under the Tree this year, actually there is only 1 Kit under the Tree and that one is from ME to ME. [:P]
And yes I had my eyes closed while I paid for it and wrapped it. [:D]
I’m getting Tamiya’s Hummer with tow missile and the Abrams which I just ordered a couple of hours ago (Woohoo!). [:D] Can’t trust anyone in my family to buy me a kit --I’d end up with a bunch of Monograms or Testors --eeek! [:p] When I’ll actually get around to building the new toys is another story.

I’m expecting Tamiya’s Sturmtiger. I just received (from myself) the AV 251.
Good Luck, Merry Christmas and happy hunting to all.
Courtesy of that GreatModel sale in early November I’m getting Tamiya’s Mid-Pro Tiger Kit, Eduard Tiger Barrel, Fruil Tracks and Tamiya Polyester Putty. Do you think I might be building a T-I-G-E-R kit sometime in 2005?
Merry Christmas to all and to all a goodnight…

No models this year, but I got a big tin of cookies from my Mom, and right now thats even better than a kit!
well I got a Tamiya Kommandeurwagen, 7.5Cm Anti-Tank Gun, and some dio stuff, I think Scorn is trying to tell me to make a dio with it lol. So what I was going to do is have the wagen in full german dress, and have it being stolen by some ballzy GI’s towing away the gun. Should be pretty fun to do. will post picks of it when I get them working. Later days and later builds…
Tamiya Dragon Wagon - in my wildest dreams…!
well, it doesn’t qualify as christmas, but I received my Al-by 1/35 Panhard 1/78 as an “early” birthday present from my folks! [:D]
People in my famirly aren’t quite into the whole model thing, so any thing of that kind will be from me to me, an I scored an AFV Club M88, Dragon 251 3-in-1, and some accessory sets [:)]
I asked my Wife for some kits but she didnt want to know them or get them, incase she got the wrong things so asked me to get them for her[:D]
so ive got from her a Dragon Sd Kfz 251/22 a Dragon M4A2 Russian Sherman and a Dragon Tiger (P)
thats all i know in models[:D][:D]
you’re lucky, capt… i asked my wife for models and she asked if i was kidding… i’m still holding out hopes there will be a gift card from the LHS in my stocking… [:D]
