July 29,2015
We’re back from vacation and have some new items here tomorrow or Friday:
Tamiya 1/32 Mosquito IV. $281.00. I have one not spoken for, our price is 20% off the list price. The HK Models 1/32 Mosquito Mk.IVB, $169.95, is still in stock too.
ICM 1/48 Dornier Do17Z-10 Night Fighter, $54.99.
Trumpeter 1/48 EA-3B Electronic Whale, $99.99.
Trumpeter 1/35 Soviet T-10M Heavy Tank, $74.99.
Hobby Boss 1/35 Schneider CA Tank, $60.99.
ICM 1/35 Gurkha Rifles 1942-44 Soldiers, $$15.95.
IBG 1/72 Diamond T 968 Cargo Truck, $21.89.
Squadron F-4 Phantom II in Action, $19.95.
Moebius 1/72 Interstellar Ranger Transgalactic Spacecraft, $34.99, includes a 1/144 Ranger launch module that can be displayed on a Saturn V kit.
Moebius 1/25 1965 Plymouth Satellite, $32.49. For you young guys, that’s a car!
AMT 1/520 USS Akron/Macon Blimp, $30.95.
Lindberg Project Vanguard Satellite, $22.95. The old Hawk kit that has been out of production for 50 years. It is a round ball with clear top and bottom and four antennas. No scale listed, but it is about 12 inches high on the stand and 4 inches in diameter so it’s close to full size. The real one was only 6 inches in diameter, no wonder Khrushchev called it a “grapefruit”. BTW, but the real satellite, launched in 1958, is still in orbit and is the oldest man-made object still in space.
Abrams Squad Magazine #11, $18.99. Great magazine specializing in modern armor.
Dragon 1/35 Tiger Ausf E #131, $93.95. , the one from the movie “Fury”.
Academy 1/72 F-4J Phantom II, $42.00.
Coming soon (like next week, hopefully) will be the Asuka 1/35 M4A3E8 and M4A1 Shermans from “Fury”; the Takom 1/35 128mm Zwilling Flak Gun and Skoda PA-11 Turtle; the Kitty Hawk 1/32 OV-10A/C Bronco and the Panda 1/35 Cougar six-wheel MRAP. I’m sure other goodies will show up too!
Have a great week,
Grace and Gary

- LifeColor Tensocrom weathering wash pigments
- Vallejo Rust/Oil, Mud/Sand, Stone/Cement and Snow/Soot weathering pigment sets
- MV Lenses, which are neat little reflective lenses in sizes and colors ranging from tiny to just pretty small.They’re great for everything from 1/72 aircraft formation lights to 1/35 Sherman driving lights to 1/24 car headlights and everything in between.I’ve been gathering information on which size fits which application, so I can help you get the size you need for your next detailing project. I also have individual drill bits in all the sizes you need to seat the lenses.
- Speaking of detailing, we now carry Tichy rivets, turnbuckles, eyebolts and other teeny stuff to help make your vision go bad.
- New decals for the B-17, P-51, Sopwith Camel, and Fokker D.VIIs and Albatros D.IIIs of the Flying Circus.
- Don’t forget about EZ Line, a thin (comes in both .003 and .006 in. gauges) black elastic polymer thread.It’s great for antennas, ship and aircraft rigging, tie-down straps, etc.It won’t dry up like rubber and attaches with super glue.Price is $1.99 for six feet of either size (will stretch up to 42 feet).
Lots more new stuff on the way, too
Come on by and say Hi.
