Nice score Stuart! That is a nice kit of the early Abrams…. you’re gonna enjoy the build.

Little shopping during SprueBrothers Hasegawa sale. I was missing a 767 from my airliner collection - and I like the military version. This will compliment my KC-135R - though a different scale. The 3d decals are for my AH-1Z and that glowing sun florescent orange is supposed to be for my Tide NASCAR but man... I don't know.

Nice! It's a cool looking jet, too bad it has nothing but problems.keavdog wrote: ↑Fri Jun 06, 2025 4:47 pm Little shopping during SprueBrothers Hasegawa sale.

Re: Latest Acquisitions - pt.3
I haven't been on much, due to a brutal month of May, but I was able to go to the San Diego Model Expo contest. There I got a number of acquisitions, most were purchased, others are raffle prizes.
First, I got this on a raffle at my local club meeting:
In San Diego, I was able to purchase these:
And finally, the guy at the raffle table was giving away books and so I picked up this one:
These are the raffle prizes I won in San Diego:
Those I'll build, these two I won't and if anyone wants to make me a reasonable offer, they are yours:
That's all I have for now; time to get back to the bench.....

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Nice haul, Mark.

John, that was the one I saw to look closer. Built that kit back in the early 80's and really liked it
