Just got back from the Cincinnati IPMS show, the stuff I bought combined with my existing backlog probably will be enough to sustain me for the next decade. Actually criminal how good a deal I got on some of these (the T-34 I got a significant discount on because I showed the seller it had been started...they didn't see I'd hidden what else was in the box under the instructions which includes a full chisel set, a full set of needle files, an aftermarket full metal cannon barrel, and a box of toothpicks).
"Evil Iron" and the gift card were raffle prizes. Specifically, the category I won the kit in was "Miscellaneous" and the guy running the raffle, upon seeing it was this kit, remarked "Yeah, that's definitely miscellaneous alright..." while the gift card was the final 'super raffle' prize. Which is great, because I need some replacement drill bits for detail work.
