Nostalgia

Been EBAY surfing on Renwal... put an offer on a “started” Atomic cannon.

Hopefully it has all of the parts.... :hmm:

I’ve been getting a bit nostalgic myself for some of the kits of my school days. I’d like to try building them again.

Nothing wrong with a bit of Nostalgia!

Mind you, some of the older kits are getting quite expensive these days.

I bought one of those when it was reissued, I previously had an original issue that I sold. They showed us a movie in basic training about what to do if one of those was fired. Dig a hole, put your poncho over your head. We all looked at each other and said why bother!

We shall see...got it for 65 including shipping. The seller could not baser my question on how far along it was.

Hopefully, it is “complete” .

Dig a hole and get in, huh? Nice!

Every once in a while, I'll look in eBay for something from my youth / teen years.
