I wanted to let everyone know about a new advertiser/sponsor we have for the site, Mission Models ( www.missionmodels.com ). You have probably seen their banner on the site by now. The company is run by Jon Tamkin and though they are fairly new to the scene they are striving to offer both a great selection of products and quality customer service. They are based in California, but also ship overseas. Please check them out!
My apologies to Jon as his original post introducing Mission Models got wacked in the database problem we had mid-week. Hopefully he will drop-in again and say "hey".
Thanks,
Jim

I just checked out the site, found 2 books I've been looking for and called to order. Spoke to Jon, who seems to be a very nice guy. Looks like you made a good choice Jim.

I checked Mission Models out during the outage - very nice site.
Dangerous things those conversion kits. They make you start thinking up all kinds of twisted projects. :-)

Thursday night I called Mission Models and placed an order. Friday I called back with a question and also added a model to the order. Today (Monday) I recieved my order by priority mail. Jon is a nice guy to talk to and is willing to try to find anything you ask for. I'm very pleased with Mission Models. I think it may be my new online model fix. (No, I'm not getting paid for this )

I encourage everyone with to go to the Online Superstores area of the directory, and if you have had dealings with various online sellers please rate them and leave feedback. I think that's very useful info for other modelers who are unsure of who to tryout.
Thanks,
Jim
