Tempting.   I used to only build 1/48 scale, but I ran out of storage room.  I used to have a few 1/32 scale, but gave them away when I saw space was becoming critical.

Maybe I shoulda just started with 1/72 scale?

You would still be out of room by this point. However, you would have more airplanes.

One of these days I need to start that Trumpet 1/32 Wildcat, but I 1) haven't had time, 2) am still trying to figure out what aftermarket kits to use (engine, PE details, guns, etc.), and 3) haven't had the MONEY for said aftermarket kits.

Hobby Lobby is going out of business and are having some pretty sweet deals, I would check with them. :salute
