Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
I forgot to post some of my 'recent' acquisitions
Back at the end of October I took advantage of Cult's scratch and dent sale and got myself these
And I grabbed a nameplate for the Supernatural car (which I still haven't gotten yet)

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
So, anyone else been getting any styrene lately?
I know I have a huge want list.
I still need more Godzillas (to use with replacement parts) I still need to grab more pirates and mansion kits. (I'd like to have 3 of each. One for quick fun builds, one for a serious build, and one for later)
And I still need to get some more dungeons and animal pits, as I only have one of each at this time.

Anyone know when "Play it Again Tom" is scheduled to be released? Last news I heard was "Early 2021"...

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
That is all I have heard as well.
I think it is because things are still out of what due to the pandemic. They don't want to commit to a date until things are actually here.
I know Cult has the boxart on his site now.

That box art is just a mock up - Cultman preorder says that the box top art was unavailable.

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
Well, I got to digging through my kits, and realized I didn't have enough Godzilla models for all the conversion sets I have.
So, I got to looking on ebay, and got lucky. Found a seller with a bunch that discounted the price more, the more you got. So I snapped up 4 of the new Atlantis glow kits.
For anyone curious, I have 5 different conversions to do so far

One of these days, I need to clear the bench and get an assembly line going. Build them all in one shot.

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
I had some recent Amazon gift cards that I used to buy the Moebius release of the Michael Myers Halloween kit and the Polar Lights 16in Godzilla kit. Also, found some cool styrene at thrift stores. The Godzilla 1/35th Jeep kit and Revell USS Arizona for like $2 each. All parts are still on the sprues. Now, I just got to find time to start working on my stash again. It has been years. since I have been able to devote anytime. I do enjoy seeing what you all have done here.

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
Those are some great scores at the thrift stores!
Thanks for bumping this up, I almost forgot to post what I got from WF.
Sadly it wasn't much styrene this year, but I still came home with some

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
I have the Play it again coming, just finished the Supernatural kit (it’s a pain!) - I also have the Kong kit and upgrade parts coming - Rick Evans’ build inspired me to have another go…

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
I forgot about the Supernatural Impala. I got that for Christmas last year. I really want to trick out the trunk with all the weapons and paraphernalia. Kind of weird that they give you the trunk decal. I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haem44p0NIA He goes into a lot of extra detail to make this screen accurate. Looks like a lot of work but achievable.

Yeah, it’s a kind of half hearted attempt at the car….here’s my build. I used the YouTube build vids for guidance…

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
Ooooooooo!
My preorder finally came in!
Got the Gatchaman God Phoenix kit from Cult.
I'm not a huge hardware guy, but I loved this cartoon when I was a kid, so I had to get this kit.
Comes with lighting, and the 4 smaller vehicles also.

Re: So, what cool styrene have you scored lately?
Yeah, I was pretty happy with it.
More resin there than first appears. Dr Deadly is resin (of course, his Den only comes in resin). The base for the cage is resin. The two Dungeon arches are also resin.
But the rest of it is all vintage styrene. And the original boxes are a nice bonus as well.
