The "Postman Brought Me" Thread

[EddScott]

My dad was postman on Friday. I won an Astute and what I think is either a Blazing Star or Manta Ray with a Top Force chassis on Ebay and it was on his way from Oxford to Wales so I got him to pick them up on the way.

Hasty phone pics I'm afraid.

A Procat in really good condition. I've more or less given up on the Avante/Egress racer so this might take its place.

And finally a B44.1 - This is my backup car if I chicken out of running a vintage car for racing. I've got a NIB B44.1 but I don't want to build the kits I've collected.

thats one nice shopping spree - good job you sold the A2K1 then

With the T-shirt! Although if I get many more kits I might have to make a box fort out of 'em to hide from the wife

Where did you find them D parts ?.

Where did you find them D parts ?.

via Uk Tamiya dealer - special order, hence the timescale on delivery. Ditto the decals, although seems Tamiya Japan don't have any currently either !

Big box of Kyosho parts and proline bulldog bodies for my ZX5 and RB5 buggies

[AndyjcClod]

My latest restore project arrived today..

I have been after one of these for ages!

[Percymon]

Looks like a good start point

[djmcnz]

A nice little package, conveniently timed:

JConcepts machined spur

Some extra lead ballast weights

A pack of orange Kyosho damper x-rings (because the Tamiya ones failed on me)

And also a saddle pack conversion kit for my 'slowly being built' Cougar SV Pro which I picked up for a good price from a friendly oOple member.

From RCmart, TRF201 v1 bodyshell

From Modellbau Seidel, 2x Dyna Storm wishbones, 2x diff outdrives - first order from them, pretty speedy service compared with some domestic counterparts!

Yes, I also like Seidel. They inevitably ship the same or next business day and don't lie about their stock levels. They've often happily special ordered direct from Tamiya for me also and helped with some crazy delivery requirements I had one time.

Stella service from Stella again - tamiya aluminium ball nuts and turnbuckles plus a hi torque servo saver to fill the little box

Reminds me of my black 1:1 Calibra 16v I used to have. That car was my pride and joy for years!
