    My stash is building (slowly)......

    I know some of you guys have huge stashes just waiting to be built, well my stash has just the reached the heady hieghts of....3. I have a Bristol Blenheim Mk 1v 1/72, an Opel Blitz & pak 40 gun 1/72, & just waiting for a German Kubelwagen type 82 1/35. Will be posting pics as they get built.

              I only got back into plastic kits Christmas and since then my stash is at 12. I have a birthday next month then there's Christmas and if I get all I've hinted at that will double (and there's some biggies in there 1/350 Warspite to mention just one)

                  You need to slow down with the stash building, before you know it you won`t be able to close the door

                    Stop Stop Stop. Three is more than enough. I've reached the very uncomfortable number of seven and wondering if I'll ever get them all built. I know, many will read this post and laugh their socks off at my pathetic seven.

                      The trouble is there are so many nice models out there at the moment. Conversely there are a lot of models I remember building years ago that are no longer available (so come up on ebay for stupid money) Bandi Pendle princess, Tamiya 1/6 midnight special, loads of the 1/25 24 custom cars for instance monogram I think it was cherry bomb.

                        3!!!!!!!! Sounds like early stages of OKB (obsessive kit buying) to me. That's how I started off just 3 then it totally got out of hand!I was always after the next fix(model) I have over 100 now but I went and got some professional help and have now cut down on the habit but still have the odd binge now and then but it's nice to have a choice. Joking aside it's up to the individual on how many kits you want need or buy some would be more than happy with 3 or 300 I still buy them now if I see something I fancy and especially ii it's a bargin so party on and let's see how many you have this time next year regards John

                          This is where it starts..... today three, tomorrow four, in a year dozens and then, hundreds. Models seem to breed like rabbits...

                          Mind you - I do only have 8 myself at the moment exerting massive self control - but they are all large scale.....

                            I 've got mine down to two models. A Revell 1/32 Spitfire Mk II (bits on the way from Barracuda Studios to convert to a Mk I) and a Tamiya 1/32 P-51 (still contemplating some after market decals for this). One of these is next up, so it is entirely possible that my 'stash' will be reduced to zero in the foreseeable future.

                            Cheers

                              Mine is currently at seven. Just about to start on the 1/32 scale Tamiya Birdcage Corsair. I also have the 1/24 scale Airfix Typhoon on order
