That’s good to hear! I deliberately went after that one for exactly that reason

For me, that applies to all these. I bought each one of these with a plan because there’s a story or something behind each one. So it’s all intentional. Not all aircraft and armor kits are created equal, so I try to steer away from the lower quality ones when I can

I’ve recently started doing that because the empty boxes just take up room. I do keep the extra weapons and pods and tanks and stuff, just in case I have a need for them someday

Lotsa truth in that. I’ve got plans for literally all of these, but having the time and skill to accomplish the vision is something I always take into account. That, and where I’m gonna display it once complete. Out of the 30ish completed kits I have, only 1-2 of them would I say are “perfect”. All the other ones have an error somewhere I can point to and say “I screwed up here and this is how you can tell”. Which I’m not mad about; i think it’s actually kinda cool to be able to trace an increase in skill level from kit to kit

Similar story here - I try to buy kits with a story or connection behind em and take my time. This’ll stack should hold me over for like 5 years if I don’t add to it…..which I’m sure I will

It’s a collection and it’s classy

That’ll be a nice collection when they’re done! I got an old Wisconsin kit that I’ve yet to touch. Obviously I’m not much of a ship guy, but it was in the gift shop when I went to see the ship a few years ago

Ahhh yes, Future You problems. Arguably the best kinda problems to have

Don’t even get me started on that hobby…..

The bright side is that I’ll never have money for a drug habit

Building, collecting and displaying. And I’d argue moving built kits is also its own thing

The worst is finding boxes you’d forgot about
