I recently had an unbelievable good luck streak on Ebay and scored some kits I've been wanting for a long time now. 1st up is the Polar Lights Space Cruiser C-57D from the film Forbidden Planet.

Next up is the Polar Lights Jupiter 2. Another killer deal.

Been a while since I updated with my latest acquisitions so here we go.
Add me to the list of people who took advantage in the recent sales from a local online store.
Been after a 12C for a while now.


And from late last year a couple of boxes from HLJ thanks to some bday and xmas money. Includes detail parts etc to make my Tamiya Panigale into the Senna edition, a scale version of the 1:1 scale Rx-78-2 we saw in Japan. The Hi-nu which will part of a group build with a couple of kiwi Gunpla fans.


December was the arrival of the Bandai Star Wars kits, some F15's for a special project later in the year


And a couple of massive Gundam kits I have been wanting for a long time.
The Neo Zeong, which although it is only 1/144 scale, has a box that is as wide as our hallway

And the latest Perfect Grade, the Unicorn with full LED kit and 3 modes. (that 4 a4 size organizers behind it)


The Ichiban brushes that I backed on Kickstarter arrived, still waiting for something to use them on :-/


These great lights from local craft store, only $40


and for $40 from Bunnings (hardware store) a great toolbox that meant going away for a week to stay with in-laws didn't result in styrene withdrawal
 
I've got three other projects on the desk right now, but I've always wanted to have a Memphis Belle, so I picked this up.

So january has been quite on the build bench with more work being done rearranging stuff and trying to get the hot air out of the room, in the end a $80 extractor fan from the local hardware store seems to have made the biggest difference and im able to actually spend time in the cave.
In the meantime the stash keeps growing, January was very much the month of paints etc with some great sales at local online retailers, including the not pictured range of Vallejo Game Air paints

Yup, a bug zapper which was used to make my own static grass applicator for less than $10

Also managed to pickup some cheap shelves that are marketed to go over microwaves, which happen to about the same size as the 'portable spray booth' so many builders have
 
2 versions of klear/future, the clear citrus smelling US stuff and the mil kier chemical smelling UK version. Will be interesting to see the differences. Both super difficult to get down under.
 
Picked these up yesterday.



Really great looking kits. Want to pick up a few more Tie Fighters.

That's the new "hover" version available this year for 2015.

Hey, according to Back to the Future, we are supposed to have hover boards. Only a small leap to a hover car! ;D ;D ;D
