I've opened the box on mine a couple of times and put it back. Looks really nice, but I need to be in the mood to tackle all that detail especially the interior. Not 100% sure about the instructions either, but then I've not gone through them in detail, just browsed as such.

I must admit my purchase was influenced by the write up in the Airfix mag.
All the RAAF aircraft featured on the transfer sheet are shown having non bulged canopies so an instant whiff can be created simply by using the Malcom hood.

Always like the Malcolm Hood Mustangs 

On sale at a local shop, $27 Canadian down to $18, the AMT 1/48th Grumman F9F Panther. A sticker on the shrink wrap says "Retro Deluxe Edition, Enhanced Reissue Featuring: Expanded Decal Sheet, Updated & Improved Parts, Molded in Color" Haven't the foggiest idea as to what will happen to it, but I like early jets, so couldn't pass it up.

Bridges at Toko-Ri?

My thoughts exactly, especially as I watched it again the other day 

I thought Canadian or Australian

Gondor

from the womborne show today,
Tamiya  us wepon set in 1:35
Gecko 105mm ammo cans and pallets 1:35
gecko UK SA80 and infantry weapon set 1:35

Hasagawa 1:48 modern us pilot and ground crew set  yes its open, yes its second hand, but it has at least 3+ of the pilots in it so cheaper than getting resin 
(edit of scale rfom 1:35 to 1:48 21/09/22 as apparently i cant be trusted to read the labels correctly)

found on aliexpress while buying new building tools.

2 x CC Lee 1/144 Mirage 2000-5F (Chinese rebox of the Heller mould)

Just bought a rather obscure kit via ev!lbay from a German seller, a vintage Imai 1:144 Nousjadeul-Ger mecha suit (from the Macross TV series) from 1983, for a reasonable price.

I have a Trumpeter 1/48 F9F-3 Panther which will be enlisting in the Royal Australian Marines.

I have the original AMT 1977 release of the Panther, the Retro-Deluxe version was released in 2013
by Round2.

It's a very simple kit and designed so it can be built gear up, thus perfect Whiff-fodder. 

Mention of Round2 reminded me, the MPC Monkeemobile is being rereleased. It may even be at your favourite e-tailer already... thinking of You, Fred. 

Thanks Rick.  One of my favourites which up until now I have resisted buying for some reason.  Maybe it's time...

I can remember the Monkee's on the Beeb immediately after the classified football results on a Saturday. I'm getting old
