If you got through their online shop you can get upto 30% on the above prices depending on what their offer of the moment is ....I paid £6.99 for my last Bear from them I think

The 117 will be a nice little kit. Could do some Lakota derivatives as well no ?

[Green Dragon]

The BK117 is the old matchbox kit Captain and has quite a lot of differences to the Lakota. One did get trialed by Canada as the CH-143.
Think this latest boxing has extra sprue with winch and ambulance interior. Heller do a UH-72A kit that is supposed to be better than Revells
civvy/Police versions.

The Ontos will be a neat kit with lots of potential !

[jcf]

The Ontos is the old Renwal kit, Academy does a much newer kit in 1/35.

Personally I'm likin' that the Showboat is coming back and the all-new Torino
is tempting.

I built that Renwall Ontos for a model shop window dispay a zillion years ago, small but neat.

And the Showboat re-pop is great news for the drag race car builder, LOTS of spare parts all in one box.

That clear Mustang takes me back.

As for the Ontos I remember getting one for Christmas probably in the early 60's. Fond memories of it and the 105mm howitzer with its little diorama base I got at the same time

Amazingly I found I STILL have a Renwall 'Big Six' self-propelled gun unbuilt in The Loft! And I may just build it for old times sake. Can you WHiff one? I haven't a clue about armour so don't know if it's even possible.

[Go4fun]

I want the Torino even if it ends up being a Snap Tite. Owned one that was was former Fire Chief's 'Unit' and have a lot of memories, fond and not so fond.
