    So this hobby shop calls with a problem...

    I've been buying a lot of discontinued kits from ebay lately - all are new and still shrinkwrapped. What I have found, is that most of them have 1 or 2 castings that are broke. After repairing them, I think it adds character to the buildings to give them the old look.... It's good that Randy...
