I'm not much of a kit collector myself. I do have a few kits still in the
box; but they are all ones that will be built at some point.

I don't buy any of them just to collect them for the box art and stuff. If
I buy it kit, I buy it to be built. I guess I just never understood the
whole "kit collecting" mentality. I'm not saying there's anything wrong
with it; it's just not my thing.

About the only kit I'm still foaming at the mouth to get my hands on is a
HAWK missile battery kit. So if any of you guys have one laying around you
want to part with, let me know.

I do however collect baseball cards. I have something like 3000 or so. I
know that I do have some that are worth something (i.e. a '67 Roger Maris).
