I built plastic models from the age of about 6 until my undergrad days. The last kit I finished, completely finished, was a Star Wars AT-AT in the early 1980s! I did some kitbashing and 120 mm figure sculpting after that, but haven't actually glued anything together in more than 10 years. In recent years I've bought many of the ERTL Trek kits (and a vinyl Excelsior by Tsukuda) but haven't done anything more than dry-fitting them. I still subscribe to Finescale Modeler, visit Starship Modeler and other web sites, and go to hobby stores. I have a closet full of unbuilt kits back in Minnesota but have managed not to buy any kits in a few years because I know I'd never get around to setting up a workbench and actually building. Aren't we pathetic? I now spend my money on toys and books (about airplanes, ships, and tanks!)
