Ah yes....many decades ago, about 3rd grade, my grandmother got me a subscription to the model of the month club, seriously I think it was through AMT. I had a to choose between snap-tite and glue kits, so my mom decided for me...snap-tite (this was a good choice as I had never built a kit before). My first kit was a '65 Mustang Fastback. No painting, just built it out of the box. Since my parents got me Hotwheels, Evil Kenieval toys, Matchbox cars, Slot tracks and such, this model car thing caught on like wild fire...I loved it. A few years later, dad bought me my first glur together kit and paint, an late '70's Ford truck, and he showed me the ins and outs of assembly and painting, ie he built it himself and let me watch. The rest is history...more kits than I can put together, or so my wife says, and getting more all the time. I love this hobby. I won't even go into the amount of armor kits that are in my closet.......
