Kick The Bucket Wish List

[knotty]

Lifted from another forum and a bit gruesome maybes but whats you kick the bucket wish list of stuff to do before you pop off? Doesnt have to be Tamiya related but obviously people will probably have some in there ,like have a complete collection of tl-01 kits relesed(although i suspect hank may have beaten us to that one!!)

Dont know what mine are to be honest

Mmm, Megan Fox R parts...

What he said!

I'd like to try out a plane, helicopter and tank someday. Also hope to build a Z scale train track if there is time. Oh, and read entire series of Thanos appearances in comics. Would like to see a few 1:1 cars in person. Other than that, just wish for healthy family, friends and other people. But as far as models go, I want to become a master at making them, or at least get good enough to make them look fantastic. Budget permitting, someday I'd like to go to some of the meets that members have on the forum here.

There's also secure job for my working life, shelter, etc. But for fun stuff, what's listed above.

I'm just thankful that Tamiya is re-releasing the stuff I like (that I could not afford many years ago) while I'm still in the living years...

life is short, do your best and appreciate what comes your way. Don't have regrets before the final curtain fall...

Happy holidays

I second the Megan Fox post, among others. But that isn't realistic. For me I'd like to own an exotic car, go to the Super Bowl, Learn another Language, Send my kids to college, maybe have another, retire comfortable on some land outside of town.

I've always liked the idea of putting all my restored cars to use round my own personal track on my 75th birthday and inviting Tamiyaclub mates over from wherever for the most amazing series of vintage racing ever!

If you do that, I will be there! I visited NZ in 2005 and promised myself I will return to heaven, hopefully before I go to heaven LOL!

I'd like to be able to painlessly and flawlessly mask, paint and decal a complex Tamiya kit body without making a dog's meal of it and cursing the air blue.

The only thing that has ever come remotely close to that frustration is golf. Unrelenting failure, misery and frustration broken by brief moments of total euphoria when you finally get it right [enough anyway] so that you foolishly come back for more, assuming you are over the hump and next time will be even better. Foolish mortal.

Own a 68 fastback Mustang with at least a 302 in.

See a formation of 100 spitfires do a flypast at the 100th anniversary of it's first flight in 2036.

Fit back into 32" trousers without having to hold my breath

Finish my steel king tiger

Build a monster truck with dual drive shaft 'County' style transmission.

Some things already crossed off the bucket list (that can be mentioned here ):

1. Flown in a genuine WWII veteran spitfire, including a victory roll, going ballistically straight up, and straight down.

2. Been round the inside of a WWII german u-boat

3. Owned a V8 (Trans Am) before I was 30.

4. Learned to scuba dive.

5. Seen loads of different WWII planes flying at the Flying Legends at Duxford.
