Me and the mailman had a great week

After three seperate trips to the post office to pick up my packages I am a very happy modeler.

Revell Germany Mercedes 1450 LS racetruck. Anyone know anything about this kit? Looks like a nice build but never seen it before.


Tamiya "new" F40, very nice kit, worth the money with the P/E, metal tailpipe tips and Cartograf decals


Tamiya Xanavi 350Z. Nice kit even with the diecast bottom.


P/E for the 350Z, seatbelt for my 1/12 F2002 and Model Factory Hiro Ferrari emblems (extremely nice)


And the most exciting (and maybe the most expensive thing I have purchased) the SMS Enzo super-detail set. Always wanted to do a project like this so I finally bit the bullet and ordered it up.


Now to get some of these built.

You had to go pick these up at your post office? Sounds to me like your mailman sucks. Nice buys.

Re: Me and the mailman had a great week

Very nice Mike. I just learned about that F40 kit yesterday. I think I need to get one too....

Hoping to see you again at RMMC in Calgary this year! Maybe some of these will be on the table by then...

Cheers

Murray

Re: Me and the mailman had a great week

Yes Murray I'll be there. Don't know if I can get any of these done in time for May. Hopefully we will see your C5R there

drunken monkey, havent tried any fitting yet but I know that the Tamiya F40 does have fit issues and will have to deal with them as they come.
