HLJ and the mailman are my friends!

I just got in my order from HLJ and I couldn't be more happy, well unless I was getting married, having kids, or won the lottery. Just came in about 5-10 minutes ago. After they finished processing the order it shipped so damn fast. It was shipped at three days tops. Even customs wasn't a hassle which is surprised since it came in on the day of the London attack.

Well, enough rambling, y'all want to see what I got.



I <3 HLJ!

Where in the HLJ catalog is that Jurassic Park book?

Great order... my guess is those BBS RS mesh wheels are going on the Trueno right?

Re: HLJ and the mailman are my friends!

Of course they are. Have to put some old school rims on an old school car. They look much better than the kit one also. Only problem is that Fujimi wheels don't like tamiya kits. So, I'm going to have to adapt the rims. Good thing there are tutorials!

Re: HLJ and the mailman are my friends!

I love HLJ too. But the shipping cost to the US is a bitch. UPS delivers my package. Man...I've spent soooo much money at HLJ it's not even funny. Oh yeah, does the Fujimi Brembo brake kit work with Aoshima models???

Re: HLJ and the mailman are my friends!

Creditcard? I pay by Visa, wich means that the $-amount is drawn from my bankaccout the very second ( or minute..) . Why credit? Itīs more expensive , right?

By the way, nice camerastrap ..

Cool! Now clean up your room!

JK I'm one to talk, I don't have that much floor showing in my hobby room.

That room is my brothers old room. While I was at work today, my parents cleaned it up. There is a bookcase just waiting to be filled up with finished models. Now I just need to set up a table for modeling by the windows and I'm set.
