@petbat Thats the stuff that came in today. There is more in the stash.
@Dan That is a great kit and super fun . Once you get past all the suspension it is smooth going.
Ouch. That resonates too true. I picked up a pack of styrene at the local train place and when I bought it the proprietor asked me if that was the last pack of it on the shelf. I said, “yes,” and thought - “you keep track of what’s there? I can’t tell by what you have left…” Maybe I should just blame it on covid…

Yeah John, £42 from AMS, which is a bargain methinks. And I got a 10% discount for being such a good customer! They still have them in stock too. I have also put in my request for the Amusing Hobby Swedish Army Centurian strv104 and the Takom M60A1 w-era and dozer blade when they come out.
Also noticed they have the HK models 1/48th Lancaster, which I am very tempted with too!
Oh and happy new furry family member!!
Thanks Chris @Chris_Bryan , I’ll be starting a thread soon…
Cheers, Jim.

Because I could have a 15€ reduction on it, I got that one (planning on doing it as a what if who surrendred to the ally)

This one is all @SSGToms fault and his post for fast shipping for Gunprimer tools. 
The circle cutter was bonus, as I was looking for one and the shop (US distributor for Gunprimer) had one.

Another nice item I got this week, Danger Close Dioramics Pacific Beach base. I had added the Dragon Tarawa flamethrower figure for scale and I am thinking about adding one or two more from the set.

Ryan you are going to love that Sand Loop 4 set! The Mini Handle sands things perfectly flat, and the paper lasts a long time.

If you haven’t opened it yet, do be careful when doing so. The Revell end-flap box isn’t very sturdy and there are quite a few very thin parts in that kit that may go snappity-snap. Other than that it is a rebox of a very good ICM kit. I see this kit calls out tri-color vehicles while ICM featured several gray schemes.
Sweet indeed.
By all accounts the ICM/Revell version is very nice. If only they made the earlier Type 1/1a … after all the work I did on correcting Tamiya’s, my second one is on the bottom of the stash to build list…
