She wins big.. she went to go grab some craft supplies to make Christmas gifts at hobby lobby yesterday. She came back home and showed me what she got and in my normal "uh huh, yep, yeah" answers as she showed me her scores. Then she said "and I saw this and thought you might like it" so I glance back towards her and she whips this out of the bag.
My excitement level went through the roof, I couldn't believe one of these was actually on a store shelf for purchase, and the fact that she bought it for me. I think I was more excited about this than my last purchase of parts for the Cutlass in the garage.
Th best part, my wife knows me so well.. she bought 2 of them. 1 for me to build and the other for me to leave in the package and/or build at a later time.
She did so good that I was expecting her to then tell me she bought something huge and/or expensive but that was not the case.
I'll wrap it and let it surprise me again on Christmas morning with my son.
Another thing I was unaware of, was level 5 models. I had only previously seen up to level 3 in my younger years of building model cars.
