Model Forum / General / Models / October 2005Discipline is walking into Hobby Lobby tonight...
... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% discount) and walking out with NEITHER. To add insult to injury, I actually spent most of my time on the other side of the store picking up Halloween stuff I actually needed to pick up. But I still have one more day on those subs, right. ;-) WmB > ... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% > discount) and walking out with NEITHER.

Just dropped an X Acto knife while barefooted and it landed point first stuck in the carpet between my big toe, and the next one. Needless to say I learned a lesson very quickly, thankfully with no blood shed this time !!! BTW, I just actually finished a model for the first time in a year !~!

Ahem... I guess I walked into that one... Frank Kranick > ... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% > discount) and walking out with NEITHER.

I keep eyeing the BIG Bone, the sub and Big Deuce but have talked myself out of them each time. But you're right, one more day......................:-) -- Chuck Ryan Springfield OH > ... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% > discount) and walking out with NEITHER.

Went back to HL today - passed on the subs (again) and decided to hold off on the big Tomcat too. Neither is in my mainstream of focus (1/35th armor and 1/48th aircraft) so I figured if I was going to be weak right now, at least make it count. I couldn't resist the Dragon King Tiger Ardennes 1944 kit at $18. I recalled the discussion in RMS on Dragon's recent improvements a few days ago and decided I needed to find out for myself. WOW! That is some good looking plastic in there - and aluminum, and brass... Let the research begin. WmB STOP IT! You're not helping me fight the urge to make that trip myself. >>>> ... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% >>>> discount) and walking out with NEITHER.

Passed on the sub, Bone and Big Deuce again but picked up Dragon Tiger, T-34? and a Caddy kit just for the engine and wheels for a rod project. I'll curbside the body in some mild custom, I guess. -- Chuck Ryan Springfield OH> >>>... seeing two Revell 1/72nd Type VII U-Boats ($35 each with the 50% >>>discount) and walking out with NEITHER.

The discipline will be if they issue another 40% off anything coupon in tomorrows ad. :-) Ours happens to have a humongous submarine model, Revell I think, about 3' long I'd guess and about $69. BIG sucker for sure! They have a huge one of the QM II too. Bought that one myself. John They're all closed on Sundays. Went by my local HL today just as they were putting out some new stock and picked up the Tamiya 1/48 Tiger I. And I wasn't even "shopping." They are closed now so we've got to wait until the next quarter for a big sale. Don't know about all the stores but the local one has an aisle devoted to mark-downs. All the models on clearance are 1/3 off. Saw a Tamiya Beaufighter and a 72nd Mossie and a bunch of cars and cycles. Seems like an ongoing thing.

Has anyone seen the Big Zero from Tamiya there yet? |
