My Collection

[mrshanks]

In addition to wooden ships, I build plastic models of nearly every genre. Here is a very small sample of some of my builds along with my unbuilt kit collection. I currently have about 200 completed models and around 300 unbuilt kits.

Very nice work, Mike. Nice to see the lunar lander again and I have memories of building that when I was a kid. Cheers.

[DonRobinson]

Cool stuff Mike, what hours is your kit store open? Oh wait you said kit storage :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Bryian]

gosh, you have your very own hobby shop. Incredible.

 

[GaryM]

You have enough there that you need to live to be 250 years old to complete. I thought I was bad.

Mike probably got approved for 500 years pension plan. ;-) do you have by a chance the Btw DeLorean kit?

 

[mrshanks]

Haha.. thanks guys. I don't have a Delorean but i do intend to build every one of my models. I might need a time machine to do it... LOL

 

[Aussie048]

Mike we are all jealous of your collection.

I hope you have good fun with it.

Cheers
Geoff

 

[mrshanks]

Thanks Geoff. I have been building models for more than 50 years. I am happy to help anyone with anything!! Just ask.

An amazing collection! When I showed the Admiral the picture of your storage area, my stock went up!

Hi Mike

That is the way a forum should be. One modeler helping another modeler.

Cheers
Geoff

 

[mrshanks]

Glad I could help!!! LOL

Nice collection. I have similar numbers of built and unbuilt models but most of mine are 1/48th scale plastic airplane kits with about 30-40 ship kits added to the mix as well as a few model cars and a bunch of 1/32 scale slot cars.

Donnie set up forum called "Historical Trailways, Guns, and Aircraft Build Logs " the link is below

http://www.shipsofscale.com/sosforums/viewforum.php?f=101

If you wish to build a kit that meets this criteria, please do.

If it is outside this area the send Donnie a PM and ask him to extend or make another area available.

There is no reason at least not to ask.

Cheers
Geoff

Hi! You have really serious collection. Do you have the Sd KFZ-8 12 tons German WWII car? When I was the kid one German unit came into my village. The soldiers where nice with children, and we all had the ride through the village.

 

[mrshanks]

Hi Hrvoje!!

Yes, there are many, many varients of the Sd KFZ 7/8 series. Here are a few. I have a couple more not yet built!!

 

[Dida]

This one on the left side is the most similar to that from my village. It was with the benches only. Do you have the picture of this variation?

 

[Fright]

Mike - this is like going into a hobby store! Wow! A serious collection and some great builds
