UPS dropped off a Kate today.
UPS dropped off the first HM Kate at the house today, and it looks pretty nice. The only problem with it though. Was it supposed to come with a bomb or a torpedo? If it was, mine was missing in action, because there was neither a bomb or a torpedo with this model. It is a nice looking model and really like that you can display it with the canopy open, three crew members and rear armament.

Re: UPS dropped off a Kate today.
Finally found the bomb! I called Pete (Of Pete's Collectibles) and asked if there was a bomb or torpedo with this one. He told me to check the stand, and there it was (Thanks Pete). I am now completely satisfied with this model (Ok pilots are a wee bit short, but I can fix that). Another great job by the folks at Hobby Master!

Re: UPS dropped off a Kate today.
Oh, man, I’m salivating. All this drool’s screwing up my decrepit metal body, dog gone it. I’m just glad I pre-ordered this little treasure before she vanished. Honestly, I'm thinking it might be a REAL GOOD IDEA to pre-order ALL Hobby Master models from now on. Otherwise I might end up with nuttin'!

Re: UPS dropped off a Kate today.
Haha glad you found the bomb Cruver collecter! HM has been getting interesting in the placement of certain parts lately. For example the A-4's landing gear are in with the stand as well. But I will forgive them because their models more than make up for the extra searching around the box.

I have the next two Bf 110s, next Brewster Buffalo, Grumman F3F-1 and next two Kates on pre-order already. I have yet to be dissapointed with any of the HM models.
