I generally try to refrain from participating to a campaign for which I don't already have a kit, because I have ran out of storage space, and buying a kit would make the situation worse. But this is too interesting to pass, so I'm in.

Let's see. Something I built as a kid (Privateer, Marauder or perhaps 109), or something I wanted but didn't end up buying.

While browsing I noticed that a modeler whose work I recognise is selling the entire set of MB 1/76 armour kits on ebay, built and beautifully painted for £595:

They are quite nicely finished models but I must say that the results of our first Matchbox campaign here on Armorama weren't too shabby either! At the price he wants, that's about £21 or CDN$36 each? I fondly recall paying in the neighbourhood $8-$12 per single vehicle kit way back in the darker ages. Still, some pleasant memories.

Cheers,
