Hobby King Western Wagon, it's awesome!
« on: 08 January 2023, 09:49:03 PM »
Another birthday gift!  I WAS A VERY GOOD BOY T 8)his  :Pear, I guess.

Wife of hobby shop owner gives me a boxed wagon set, from "Hobby King" out of Spain. Never heard of 'em??

1/56, and pretty damn great.

Here's my progress so far.

Supposed to be a chuck wagon of sorts?  Looks good regardless.

Now, as for the wife of the hobby shop owner giving you gifts, hmm, one's mind wanders a bit - and I'll leave it at that.  lol

Very nice indeed. Seems like a very rare and hard-to-find model. So, a good "gift" indeed. Does it come with any of the other pieces shown on the box cover?

Look forward to seeing you do the other bits then. I will certainly be on the lookout for one of these.

She found some more sets, all border war confederate cavalry types.  Still know nothing about Hobby King, but they seem like a good company

Looking up "Hobby King" online only gives radio controlled aircraft stuff.  If you can get any more info, I'm sure we'd all love to send them more business.

Same if anyone here with better Google-Fu than I have can suss it out.
