Red face This was not part of the plan (7 kits)

It is all ales fault! (Joking)
I went into the hobby shop just to get a Fujimi Hartge H5-24 because I saw ales' beautiful Fujimi BMW E34, but I came out with 7 kits.

Bad, bad Ales... How can you do something like that to the nice folks of AF...

Seriously, great selection of models, no need to feel bad about buying all seven. How can you pick just one from these?

My painting skills are still way under the skill level needed to paint the Sierra as shown in the box. The colors needed are TS23 (light blue), TS-26 (pure white) and X2+X14 (white+sky blue). I think I will make it a street version. Not sure about the color. Probably park green. What do you think?

The Supra will be in burgundy like your (ales) BMW E34 since that was the color of the 1st Supra I saw and kept staring at it like this .

The BMW will be in bright silver (Tamiya MS-2 for Mini 4wd) . It is brighter (at least the cap looks like it) than the regular Tamiya silver.

The Koenig 928 will be in gold. Waiting for MythosGR to say "When".

Not sure about the rest yet. If anyone have other ideas please let me know. I know someone will tell me to send him/her some kits. I can do that but you will have to pay for it.

I know, I have the kit and I won't be caught dead painting it as it's supposed to be. So mine will be a street version RS500 and it will be blue so stay away from that colour

Another trip to the shop

I did not want to open another thread so here are the 7 kits I got today.

Nothing special with the Nissan 180 SX, R33 and Toyota Supra. They are quite popular here.
The wheels are 18 inches by the way. Pretty nice.


What surprised me were the AMG Mercedes 600 SEL and Volvo 850 Turbo Estate. I love Volvos.


The front seats of the AMG is covered and not holow like other kits. No more filling.


And the Volvo comes with floor carpeting sticker. Very nice touch.


Anyone here knows other kits that come with carpeting?

Porsche GT3 comes with carpeting.

Nice collection, although a bit extreme all at one time, or twice rather.
