That'd do great, I only need 4 or 5.
Thanks!

Top of my shopping list this weekend is a couple more 72nd Airfix Lightning F2As - or possibly F6s - to fuel my next-but-one wave of lunacy. 

Also, does anyone know offhand if any of the traders attending sell HobbyZone modelling storage stuff?

Ta.

Thanks Nick - much appreciated.  Funnily enough, I also thought last night that "Hobbies on line" are aka Hobbies.co.uk, and I'm going to call them today to check and pre-order a couple of things.  I have already in vested in the HZ stuff - and it's cracking - and actually have a few brand-new EBMA paint stands to dispose of as a consequence  ;)

You'll be lucky!

I've been trying to find either or both for weeks no, and failed. Even the F2 starter kits seem to have vanished. :-(
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Hope springs eternal!  I also thought that I saw that Airfix are due to re-release the F2A shortly, but my subconsciousness might be tricking me again...

You did indeed: https://uk.airfix.com/products/english-electric-lightning-f2a-a04054a?_br_psugg_q=electric+lightning

The Gift Set boxing is still available: https://uk.airfix.com/products/hanging-gift-set-english-electric-lightning-f2a-a55305a?_br_psugg_q=electric+lightning

And Hannants still has the 'regular' F2A boxing available: https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/AX04054A

But no F6s to be seen!
