I still want the 1/72 scale version of the P-8. Maybe someday...

Now for me, thanks to some good friends (yes, I do have them!!) I was able to get these things, one was a raffle prize, the other was some things a friend was getting rid of.


First the prize:


A magnificent book that will tell you just about anything you want to know about the Italian Air Force in WWII. Man, I have an even higher respect for them now after reading this:

The next thing (or things) I got were these three LED light strips powered by 9-volt batteries and are turned on by a magnet:

These went inside my church I've been building for awhile, now the stained glass windows can be seen when these are on.



Finally, the last three birthday purchases came in:

Okay, that's all I got for now, time to prepare for another tour.....

Nice haul, Mark! That mine detection vehicle is cool!

Thank you Tom! Yeah the Mine Clearing vehicle doe look cool but it also looks like a fight in the making. I'm not a big fan of the 3-D printed wheels.

Thank you Carlos! Maybe now, but I expect that to slow down until Christmas with the possible exception of Raffle wins and Distressed Kit buys.

Nice!

Got my Kit Masx in today. It was easy to order and didn't take too long considering it came from Canada. I'll be using them again.
