What kit....

Post by BlackSheep214 »

What kit you’ve never yet done but would like to do? Be it auto, aircraft, armor, ship, whatever.

I’ve always wanted to do:

1949 Mercury
1958 Corvette
Yenko Camaro
Shelby Cobra
Tri wing Fokker Red Baron biplane preferably 1/32 scale
Pershing tank
Any Japanese WW2 warship
Graf Spree
Tirpitz
Bismarck
WW1 Dreadnaught ship

That’s just a few I can think of on top of my head :bag:

Oh yeah... those Army Gnome figures bitbite done... :lashed:

That is much tougher than it sounds...at lest for me. Probably 75% or more of what is in my unbuilt motel kit storage facility are kit I have not built before, but have generated enough interest Thai I bought them.

If you mean kits that I would like to try but wouldn't buy because they are out of my budget or space constraints.

1/16 Armor like a King Tiger or Abrams

1/200 Ship like Bismarck or a Carrier

1/48 Type VII U-Boat

Of all things...

Cessna Skymaster (just ordered Roden’s 1/32 offering)

Most all of Keavedog’s list..sadly not in the stash

A lot of Medicman71’s list, again not in the collection.

I’d like to get all the Century series fighters....

Soar arts huge 1/35 Dora railway gun. Out of my budget and no place to put it.

Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
