What's new in your stash?

[f2k]

Well, I got so inspired by Quaralane’s Batmobile thread that I had to go get my own.



I’ve got plans for this one, though, and it doesn’t include Batman. Does anyone know if there’s 1/25 scale human figures available somewhere?

Hey Black Sheep...I've only built two of them, but I thought the academy helicopter kits were really good!!  You broke yet Black Sheep??

Lol...... nah....not yet but I'm running out of storage room!

and this one just because...

[Darkblade88]

nice. Did the Enterprise A cost a pretty penny ?. just out of curiosity is there a good Star trek ship kit Sci-fi  model beginners ? 

[NecronautDrummer]

I think I saw the 1/350 Enterprise-A at one of my LHS a couple months back for about $75 or $80 CDN.  I've seen some really great builds of it online, with lots of lighting, extra detail sets and scratch-build work.  Given the price of the model, I couldn't really justify shelling out another $90 for a steel internal support system, and another $200 for a complete lighting kit just to put it into my slow and inexperienced hands.  I've already got a FM MF kit that I don't dare touch for at least a couple years.

Speaking of which...


My latest acquisition, courtesy of punkpigpen (thanks again, dude!!!!!)  The 1/72 scale kit, along with the top grille set, landing gear baffles, and the clear resin engine pieces.  Just need a cockpit set to get this thing ready for assembly (someday).


I'm thinking this will be my Spring Contest entry.  The AFV Club M1126 Stryker ICV, along with a couple different PE/Accessory sets from Griffon and Trumpeter and a resin stowage set (of course, all meant for the Trumpeter version of this vehicle...) and some anti-reflective laser coating stickers for the viewing blocks.

Very nice ND

[fumblethumbs]

@Darkblade: Yes ND has it right, $75.00 CDN.  It is a ton of plastic for the money!!  As for a sci-fi kit for beginner..I'd say anything that reaches out to you and really grabs your interest!!

@ND:  Yeah, I've seen those builds too ND!  I'll forgo the internal frame and will build my own lighting kit!  I've got a start on the shuttlebay, complete with fibre optics and some other mods.  It WILL be a long term project   That Stryker looks seriously sweet!!  And the FM Falcon  

[Myke]

Nice set of extras for that Stryker ND. The Trumpeter version comes with about 459 pieces of stowage already haha.

My wife picked this up for me at Frenchy's for 3$. Anybody familiar with it?  It is 1/32. The figures look a little lame but from what I can see the truck is quite buildable. What am I saying, anything is buildable. I think I will do it as a civilian rig when I get around to it.

[Chris S]

Oooh ...Now thats cool    I didnt even know about that kit ...now I want one    1/32nd ! ...you'll need some 54mm figs then

Makes a spot on Canadian version!! LOL But yeah, any 1/32 (54mm) figures will work....or...anything Verlinden as their 1/35 figures are a little on the big side!
