Hi guys,
A special package arrived today from my friends at Italeri and you can't wipe the grin off my face. I've had a chance to look through the parts and it is beautiful! I'll do a full review on the kit during the next few days but wanted to share this with you all.

The box art looks fabulous, I can only hope the contents are as nice. I think that's great Italeri signed the box. It's a great day for all of us. I bet you will be smiling for a week. Looking forward to a kit review.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for sharing this with us. Although I no longer build model, I still remember the
Varney PT boat model I built during WW II. A friend spray painted it for me. In those
days nobody can afford a spray gun. I wish I still had that model.
Thanks for all the help you rendered Italeri. This sure put the message board on the map.
Now we are all waiting for your finished product.
Smooth sailing on this project,
Victor

Nice Dave, way cool! That grin would make The Joker envious. I'm really looking forward to seeing the results of your excellent modeling skills.

Hey Dave, I think you should send it out here to AZ forthwith so I can include it into the new 12 foot diorama before Frankie tries to get it from you. I promise to send you some really nice photos when it is finished.
