The Columbia Previn reminded me of the Clark Griswold Christmas turkey.
Looked good on the outside and then deflated once I dropped the needle on it.

Columbia must of thought it would be wise to stick the microphone in the studio closet during the recording.
 
Some new pickups. This months VMP records,

Crimeapple x DJ Skizz (pink vinyl) from Tuff Kong

Westside Gunn - Hitler Wears Hermes VIII (Side B) (frosted) and a replacement HWH Side A which is a personalized promo copy apparently 😬

This is how the Crimeapple record arrived. I have a sneaking suspicion that the postman might have tried to bend it to fit in the mailbox but skipped that idea before it was too late. No damage to the sleeve and i haven't opened to check the record yet.

And in non-record pickups, i've decided to try out a Gundam model kit. And since i'm nuts, i decided to go big instead of going home (i was already home). Still need to get some supplies for it like a snipper, water slide decals, panel lining paint and brush. Should be fun.

Woo! I’ve gotten very much into this hobby this year. Never built a PG but I’m almost done with the Sazabi Ver Ka which is almost as big. Only heard amazing things about the kit you have. Feel free to DM me if you ever have questions. Been meaning to post a pic of my collection but waiting for a good day to finish top coating a couple kits first.

I’m on a MG Zeon kick, got these up next
