Got an email Tuesday via my IPMS-contact-chapter-email-address, yet calling my name out. I replied to ask what is up. Today note the exchange, note my Q back to the imposter: Phil – What is the current National judging controversy? From: Phil Peterson <ddupyr@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, January 24, 2025 10:20 AM To: Mark Wilson <markxxx.com Subject: Re: IPMS/USA Hi Mark, I have been working on a couple of incentives and my goal is to pleasantly surprise certain members with gift vouchers. I would appreciate it if you could assist me with this task today. It is important that you keep this information confidential until I disclose the recipients. I will provide you with all the necessary details shortly. Let me know if you can handle this for me. Phil Peterson

Bring it to Ohio Gil.

Even though I am not a prop guy, or even a RAF fan - the early Spitfires were just beautiful.

The May 9 episode of The Simpsons, "Moe Letter Blues", during the "couch" intro sequence showed one of the main characters building a "Revvel" model kit of The Simpsons on the couch. Complete with parts-tree separation, over-glue-application, painting and then required firecracker explosion. As soon as it is posted on Fox I will link it. (Ironically not 3 minutes into the episode a model train reference is also supplied.)

Page 10, January 2009 SAMI. Jan 27, 2009, 1:34pm CT. Be still my beating heart. If it has positionable flaps (leading and trailing) PLUS spoiler detail - I will die a happy man.

I just got my new Fine Scale Modeler. I open it up and there is a new announcement about a Hasegawa 1/48 E-2 (2000). While I love all things Navy - and I was very happy (I'll probably buy two, and BTW anyone want to buy a Collect-Aire Kit?), I can't help but wonder what would sell more. An E-2 or a new 1/48 B-17? In the same issue is a review of the Trumpeter C-47 in 1/48. Hello? B-24 anyone? I don't get it. I need some change I can believe in.
