I can thank my brother-in-law for about 70% of those kits. He's a deputy chief of police back east and has lots of connections I guess. I told him the ones I was looking for and he kept sending them to me. I told him to stop unless he came across factory sealed kits or autographed ones.

There is a lot of stuff floating around that gets seized. |

I'm on a "Don't ask, Don't tell" deal with him.  The reason I told him to stop was because I am running out of room to store them. Not including the ones I pictured above, I have about 400 more kits out in the pantry. |

Send the extra's to me!!! I have plenty of room.LOL I wish I could but then I would have extra room and have to get more to fill it up again As for being the luckiest RodBurNeR, I'm just glad I have family living back east because that's where most of the models come from. I've been to hundreds of garage sales here and it seems nobody builds models out here. I've found one or two kits but they were not cheap. |

Nice stash! I have way too many kits, I never figured out how I could take pics of them all. It's always nice to see somebody else's stuff.
