Went to only my second modeling club meeting last night. They were having their first auction in a while. Mostly wingy thingies but they had a few boats, targets the air guys called them. Nobody else was bidding on them so I got a Airfix 1/600 HMS Hood for a buck, also a Revell 1/720 USS Arizona, and a Revel 1/480 USS Yorktown. Each for only $1. So I'm covered for both the Dreadnought and Flattop campaigns.
Oh, Blaster, some guy got the 1/350 Nimitz for $60.

Mine was a Christmas gift from my rich Lawyer sister. Still waiting on my $80 Lexington. It was shipped parcel post a week ago. Beginning to fret but will wait 'til Saturday before I start waving the red flag and contacting the seller
