I'be been doing a bit of Porsche hunting over the last week, managed to bag these nice specimens for the stash ... the older Porsche Boxster arrived, but was missing the chrome parts, so I got a part refund, hopefully I can get a replacement parts sprue from Tamiya, as it's the same parts as the laster 'Limited Edition' version

Those enthusiast series Fujimi kits are beautiful kits. :)

Yeah we shoulda met up.My son was at work that day so I just bought the body for him. I didn't enter anything that day for a change, just went to shop and hang out. I went the following week to Birmingham and entered several kits but didn't win anything there. It's ok though, I had a good time just hanging out with friends, and making new friends. And made some cool purchases too !! Are you on facebook ? The link at the bottom of my post to my Fotki site has lots of pics from both shows. Maybe caught some of yours ?? :rolleyes:

Did all of that stuff come from Japan through HLJ? If so how long did it take?

Not from HLJ but from Tokyo-Hobby off of Evilbay. standard air mail was about 2 weeks and it was right on time wise . Shipping was a lil pricey but these were what i was looking for mostly so i really did't mind. Part of the double secret stash so....

Haha, the shipping that Tokyo Hobby offers is the slowest and cheapest shipping from Japan, for most of the kits its $12.80 and then $6.80 for kits after that

Michael, I have nothing against TH,in fact I have bought kits from them in the past and always had great service from them, but HLJ is cheaper then TH, and even if something you want is listed as out of stock, you can still order it, they will get the kit for you .

OK, the next model show for me probably will be the ACME Southern Nats in Atlanta. Best show in southeast period. I go every year and am a extended member of the club you could say. My best friends are all down there !! lol... I will be attending 1:1 shows all summer, and actually starting this coming sat. at the Coker Cruise in at Coker and Honest Charlies headquarters in Chatt. I will have pics from there on my Fotki next week. I'll post a link on here then. What area in Tn. you live ? I am In Dayton, ( monkeetown ) as we're known, just north of Chatt.
