 Subject:  How many remember...List thread.

back when, circa early '80's ish, when we waited an entire year for the new, much anticipated Tamiya release and what we got was the experimental DAVID US AA tank-"Sgt. York" and as far as I remember-that was IT for any new releases-period!!! So us armour guys just kept going to shows hoping to find some kit from the past and some supporting reference so we could build something new and different.

I agree with Danny Egan from an above post we all have enough "killer" projects in our heads with what we currently have in our stashes to last 3 build lifetimes

We've been living in good good times, times that seem to be getting better even though we keep being spoken to about the demise of the modeling hobby-I haven't seen it yet.
Soooooo-I say just shut up and build:):):) we have shows coming up!

ps remember that by donating as much as you or your club can to kit and tool donations to Afghanistan and Iraq we're all helping to introduce a whole new group to the modeling hobby and that's good for everyone!
