Speaking of PLASTIC models, just saw a cool thing about an hour ago.

March 07, 2024 09:46AM
I went to the ONLY Hobby Shop in Jacksonville and actually saw a young man, about 9-10 years old, shopping for a model with HIS money, with his Mom & Dad. I swear, I have not seen that in probably 10-11 years. I was just browsing and over heard the Mom say...Remember, you have $35. Don't forget tax being added. The kid had the money for the model and he thought 3-4 paints. He had one bottle too many for his budget. Mom and Dad say....Take one back and you can buy it later. The Hobby Shop owner admired what he saw and told them....That bottle is on me. He also said...I love seeing young Modelers keep the Hobby alive.
