Check out what grandma got me!

These are some models I have recently aquired that I thought I'd share with the forum.

My lovely Grandma saw the B-17 and the Lanc in the a magazine for real cheap and ordered them for me. The F-22 was picked up for 10 dollars, I used it for a school project. The bombers are metal, the F-22 is cheapo plastic!

Thats awesome! I, however, prefer models without those silly stands...The stands make everything looks unrealistic ::) ;D :D

Yeah, stands can be frustrating. So I guess you like to have your models down on the gear? I had the option of this, but I chose to use the stand so they could been seen on my high shelf...

Yep, all the models I have back at home are without stands...Although you do have a point...All of my model cars and planes were in a dedicated glass shelf shelf...It was a small shelf, but had everything visible...Kinda like what they have in stores... ;)
