Formers and Maly Modelarz kits

Hi all,

I just want to show some of the kits I just got in the mail.

First off is the GPM order I placed.

My current B-24 build has me thinking about doing the other B-24s I have, so in that vein, I got the formers sets for the GPM and Fly Model kits, with that I got the canopies/glass for both birds.

I also got the former kit, wheels, and canopy/glass for the CH-53 Stallion helicopter from GPM.



In the order also, I got a couple of antique MM kits, and a new kit from Answer.
The B-24, B-17, P-38, A-10, and a couple of Rolls Royce cars, a 1907 Silver Ghost and a 1971 Corniche, and from Answer, The JK-1 Trzmiel single seat helicopter, which contains two prototype versions.
Also got the formers for the Huey from Fly, and the treads/tracks for the WAK M16 MGMC.



And from paperscalemodels, I got the following kits from MM, the Su-27, F-16, Star 25 Crane truck, and the two copies of the Mig 29.



Now I need more time

Rick -

If I'm not mistaken, you are showing Greg one of those big B-24 kits in this photo taken at the Army Heritage Day extravaganza last May. In any event, I know that you had the kits there at the time.

I hope you do build those airplanes!

Don

Yes, both kits were in the tote Don.

All I need is time Don, all I need is time

I remember seeing both of them (B-24) when Rick was showing me his stash. I think I even looked closer to see which one was better but could never decide.

As one of my IPMS buddies says: "you are not allowed to die until you build all your model kits".

The crane is very nice AND fits together really well. It was the first commercial paper kit I built. Sorry, only photos of it are over on the "Z" forum.

I need that glass for the B24 as well. Even the templates for the glass in the Fly model are confusing to me
I wonder what the P-38 by MM is like. How does it look?

drawing and printing is good, surprisingly, and it just happen to be a Bohdan Wasiak design too.

No cockpit or wheelwells, but it has wheels

yes I ordered directly from GPM, and because I ordered so much, the shipping was only a part of the whole, it all worked out fine.

not a bad idea, time to scrimp and save then blow it all away in one sweep
