My local HobbyTownUSA recently remodeled and has boxes and boxes of kits for 40% off. Got paid yesterday so decided to hop on down and see what I could find.

I had to control myself LOL so much good stuff.

Ended up picking up this cool looking little kit for only $11 so I decided to join in on the group build.

Never done photo etched before, so I'm seriously considering picking up the eduard kit. But it's got A LOT of parts and not sure I'm up for something so complex as a first shot lol

For the price of the PE...I don't think you could go wrong on that either!! You still under the cost of a really cheap kit!! Some of those little bits would just make this puppy POP!!!

The Trailer is so cool... its the same mod we had in Europe... its a little Fold out Camper ! pretty neat !
to see it done in a scale model... I always thought they were made locally !

its the first time I see a model of the HARD top variant... neat also...

Take care !

Thanks for the feedback.

I was going to order the PE parts, but the Eduard store has a $20 minimum.

you had a good kit!!

well you had to plan your future builds aside from the hardtop, to fill the $20 minimum.

Have a look around...there are plenty of places that carry that particular product number...some probably with free shipping too!!

Try here...

Waiting on the PE, I wanted to get started so I built the engine as it only has 1 part of PE, the fan.

I really like the one-piece body, it's sturdy and has a lot of detail already. After looking at how small it is though I'm really not looking forward to how small some of this PE will be $:-\$

Need to hit a hobby and/or tool store to see if I can find some stuff to bend the PE.

Well the PE *finally* arrived today. Not sure how the heck I'm going to be able to do anything with it lol dang some of those bits are small!

that would be a challenge, careful with the small parts
