Larry K20.7 inches long, 9.1 inches wide, and 5.6 inches high, time to build will be 2 1/2 years (it's a 130 issue subscription)

Larry KI've have started projects that date back to the 90's, someday maybe they will be finished

GlennLarry we have something in common... I'm a slow builder too! I have some models from 10 years ago i need to finish... Just waiting for the "paint to dry" 🙂

Larry KI just have to many models and not enough time, I Still have a few hundred more just to inventory

Spanjaardit is just a question of living two hundred years, if not manage to finish, blame Medicine for not advancing fast enough!

wilkyPrevious experience has taught me not to start buying one of these monthly instalment jobies.
I have half of a 1/8 Fokker DR1 because I lost my job before I all editions were released.
Once again I am in a casual position but this time I'm older and my health is such that I can't guarantee living that long

Larry KThis is my 1st one, and someday I hope to have the time to build one of those wooden plank on bulkhead model ships (probably in 10 years or so)

Larry KThanks' The tricky part is that my instruction booklets don't match with the parts that are included with that particular issue, I'm seen on youtube instruction booklets with different part callouts and different screws, I've had to trim parts, and even painted some due to blemishes on the parts themselves.

Larry KThey apparently have revised their instruction booklets but shipped out what they have printed previously in stock. Issue 5 parts & booklet match, just need a little touch-up painting on one of the parts.

GlennYea, After i brought the Millennium Falcon 100 part (2 years later!) edition. I can't be bothered to get any others. Besides i have the Sideshow 1/6 scale DeLorean pre built model and matching figure! (see my Albums) 🙂

Larry KHi Glenn, I tried to purchase the Millennium Falcon, but it kept rejecting from payment options, and 1/8 scale is large enough for me. I have a few Corvettes, Camaros, and 1 Firebird from Monogram, But I did see the 1/6 DeLorean, It's really nice.

GlennThanks Larry, Well at least it's not on my build pile, Not wait that should be my build mountain! I wish you well with your DeLorean. I'll get around to building the Falcon "one day" 🙂

Larry KHi Glenn, I've have to many models and not enough time, the intensions are there to build them when I first purchase them, but then my life style changes when someone new comes along and I just stop building for a while, and the models just sit in the basement waiting to be built. I still need to inventory a few hundred or so, when I have chance to build, I'll build them. I hope to anyway.

GlennTrue! Until i started to list everything on here I'd lost count on what i have. Now it just freaks me out about what i have. I blame working too many hours and coming home and sitting down in front of the computer instead of the television. Where i used to sit and build and watch T.V. at the same time, Now i sit at the computer and buy too much stuff. New kits and Decals and aftermarket resin conversions! Damn internet! Most of my stuff comes from online shopping as i don't have many decent hobby stores around that are open at 12pm!

Spanjaardyep, you are not the only one. "fortunatelly" i have less space, so my stash can not grow like yours, otherwise.....

Larry KThanks' John, the photos make it look better than what it really looks like.

Bob HallWell, he figured that if he was going to make a time machine out of a car, why not a car with style ! besides, it's stainless steel construction made the flux dispersion more even !
29 October 2018, 05:40
Larry KThe body of this model is made out of metal, so it probably won't work very well as a time machine.

Greg BakerI saw the first box of this series on the table at a Hobby Fair last week. Now I'm even more impressed. Did you subscribe and have each edition sent to you? Or do you have to go to some shop (or online) and purchase it once a month? I'd be terrified of missing an issue and then being stuck with an incomplete kit.

wilkyI have two incomplete 1/8 Fokker Dr.1 because I lost my job and couldn't afford the subscription

Larry KMike Lane Mods has two options, Zero MPH or 88 MPH (I chose zero), I think the Eaglemoss is at 45 MPH

TreehuggerLooking forward to see the whole thing come together 🙂 I am also a little curious just how large this model is.
8 May 2019, 11:19
Larry KIt's just over 20" in length, 8" wide, and 5" tall, not really sure about the height) haven't gotten the body yet.

Ron DysonThis is very true , but what they don't give you when you have finished wireing this baby is skematic of the system so you can track problems ..............Deagostini are the same with the Mustang ......
