Having build another model kit, I have updates my to-do list. I now consider my to-do list more as a list of my collection of unbuilt model airplanes. I thought a few years ago that it was a great idea to have a to-do list of what I have in my collection, especially when Amazon was always putting on ads whenever I was opening my computer and going on the Internet.
This was before Plaza Japan started hitting me with the same.
I was hoping that I could be avoiding going on another spending spree, and planning ahead on my next builds by setting up some priorities… Well I was being wrong and I kept adding more model kits in my collection. This is now the updated list of model kits as of January 5, 2025.
