TERACRUZER & MACE RETURN!!!!

Squadron now has it listed....
http://www.squadron.com/ItemDetails.asp?item=RM7812
MSRP of $75 for a re-released RENWAL kit is flat-out criminal!!  :banghead:


Great site about the Teracruzer here, with lots of detail photos: http://www.mace-b.com/38TMW/Missiles/MM-1.htm

Is current Revell Zero 1/72 a reboxing of old Matchbox kit, newtool, old Revell kit...?

Thanks for your help.

As Lee says it's the old Revell kit. they are bringing out a few of them Mc 200, Peashooter etc.

Again as Lee says - get the new Airfix kit, it's gorgeous

Concur on the Sea King - a truly superb kit... Sea Skuas would look good on a FAA Predator doncha think  :wacko:

Ex-Matchbox Stranraer is in the shops, as is the 1:32 Puma. I must get a Stranraer at some point, though I need to clear the decks a bit first...
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

I was almost tempted with a Stranraer last year.  I'm almost certain I can resist now.

Almost, Lee... don't believe a word  :rolleyes:

AFAIK, the Stranraer was one of their very best, never built it m'self, but always very impressed by the ones I've seen around the shows over the years. As a What If it would be a shoe-in for a US Navy 'Golden Wings' scheme wouldn't it  :wacko:

I think I'll wait until the inevitable Modelzone sale before I pick up a Stranraer. 

Only wish I'd picked up a cheap Privateer as I fancy a 100 Group aircraft.

I think that is a really good idea, would be a real attention-grabber. As the much missed NEV once said to me... "eBay is your friend"

Will be getting a Supermarine Stranraer I think. Might get a Peashooter and Macchi MC200 at the same time.   :cheers:

The interesting about the 1/72 F/A-18E is that Revell calls it "F/A-18E Super Hornet Twinseater" on their website, which might mean it's actually an F/A-18F.  :o Would be about time. The single-seater was released three years ago.

Adding to Nils' list, the sci-fi guys will get some Battlestar Galactica stuff. The Battlestar and the Mk.II and Mk.VII Vipers. AFAIK, they'll be reboxes of the Moebius kits.
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
