I don't have time to build them myself so I collect diecast cars, got plenty of them, and still deciding if I should buy these 2 that I have been eying for a long time. It's one of those guilt thing that is stopping me now.....

BTW, my sister bought me a Tamiya Ferrari F2001 kit that is transparent. I doubt I will ever open it.

I collected a few diecast models but I wasnt happy with the detail they had. They were always really simple and the paint jobs were never perfect. I just looked at them and said "I can do better than that".

Thing is I got addicted to building these Tamiya models that cost $30-$40 just for the kit. And I usualy have to buy new paints and brushes before each build too. They get expensive when you get a good kit and do them rite, its so worth it when its finished though.

I just don't have the time to build models anymore, so I collect these:

My bf collects the diecast plane models now, he used to like building the rocket models, but he doesnt have any time either.

Heh, I do need to dust a little don't I.

BTW, the weird little lump of metal is shrapnel from a German anti-aircraft shell dug out of a B-17 crewmans Flak Vest.
