... I may go down to HHQ on SAT. Want to go together?



sounds like a good idea....though if trafik jem in kl i will most probably take the LRT from KJ... or take the komuter and change in kl sentral..


Quoted Text

any ideas how much is this cost during this sale period??


trumpeter k5 is about RM449 or RM499.. pre-30% discount in MH.... if you want to buy this kit, better prepare a good excuse to your missus.. he he..



449??? OMG........ for sure my missus ask me to buy another necklace,,,hahaha
so gila...dah ler besar how come may masuk rumah unnoticed.. any expert advised?? so far never smuggle anything bigger than our normal kit size box.......

Good idea on those Concord books. That reminds me of the Tankograd books as well. Alamak! Really broke. I will skip dinner to save a few more bucks!

Heh what this conspiracy about going to HHQ together. Looks like I may have to be forced to go along just to keep you guys from throwing away your hard earned money.

What time are you guys meeting up? I might be able to meet up, to control you guys spending of course. But My BIKE is still waiting for me at MH. My bike, my preciousssss.....

AAAAAARGH! You are a cruel, cruel man Shairon. The pain, the pain. A man can only take so much unless its a poor, poor man like myself. Is there no justice in this world!

At this rate I may not even last the week much less the month. I was thinking to myself I don't really need it and besides I can't ride it so I'll wait until Chinese New Year where MH will likely have another sale.

Oh Man! That last statement is beyond cruel. There should be some law against friends influencing each other to waste their money on Triumph bikes they can never ride.

I'm already thinking tommorrow nite to go there. I going to blame you, Shairon when the Home Ministry asks why I have to spend good money on a bike I can't ride plus I just bought the DML Kettenkrad+Italeri Church window+Academy Russian front troops.

Now I have to think of another 2 other items to buy to get the 20 %. So much to think so little money and time. I hope you're happy now, Mojimbo.

BTW the detail on the Academy figs are suprisingly good for RM 14 before discount. The weapons are out but the clothing are quite well done. I recommend that to anyone who wants to have spares figs for scratchbuilding or even to build them as themselves.

Oops what I meant was German troops on the Russian front. The detail on the clothes is pretty good and even better than some of the more expensive Tamiya figure kits.

Yup its the one with the puppchen which I don't even know what it means. Any ideas what is the calibre and name of the piece. Doesn't look like a recoiless.

What can I say I have it in for bikes even ones with tracks which btw are individual links. There goes my eyes. That's another reason I avoid AFVs. Like the Triumph I always wanted to build this unusual bike the Kettenkrad ever since I was a kid a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Just to let CK know a bit but don't push it too far guys ... I am broke!

Swash Design have very nice bikes. I always wanted to get their Zundapp with Steib Sidecar. Since they are made of white metal, a bit of polishing will bring out the shine on the Steib. I have a dio photo at home of the Steib. Look cool in its bullet shape.

Here is Swash Design website Click Here

You know what Sil, Christmas is around the corner. The spirit of sharing and most importantly, the spirit of getting new model kits is here. Treat yourself a nice gift this season.

Merry Christmas everyone

First off many thanks to Mojimbo for that excellent article. So it was recoiless after all and 88 mm. to boot. However, Shairon it will take a lot more for me to forgive you for showing my dream bike.

To make matters worst Kenny goes on to describe the modelmaker. Resist I must. BTW Kenny thanks for the nice words on my yet to be visible Cassino vignette. A Merry Christmas to you too.

Boss I seriously think you have to remove this thread. Its killing me. Actually the Zundapp pun okay juga. Wait what am I saying.......nooooo......

Resist I must. Resist I must. Resist I must. Just out of curiosity Kenny, did you say the one Shairon showed was white metal.
