Excited!!!

Okay, I know you're not supposed to know what you are getting for Valentine's Day, but hey...... I figured I would give my wife a break this year and buy my Valentine's gift myself and then give it to her to give to me! Now "that's" romantic....right?

And I am super excited about it. This will be our first Faller model. It's an easy piece to put together and will give me an idea of what it is like to work on these German models.

The box contains two models which are game trailers for a carnival. This one is a fishing game. Notice the fishing poles sitting on the counter.

And this one....my favorite of the two, is a duck pond game, also complete with poles. This one reminds me of the fun my wife and I had when Disney California Adventure opened and we would play this game on the boardwalk. Good times that I miss dearly.

I can't wait to get my hands on these and start building them. I am already working on a way to possibly change the graphics to make it more personalized (and in English!) and am looking at ways to light it up!

Stay tuned for the arrival of our first actual amusement park pieces!
