Why could they not have given us a decent F4U-4  :banghead:

I wonder if it's all new or a re-pop of the much maligned Airfix one?

Its the same kit, Kit it was always a Heller kit developed by Humbrol, it was screw up due to them subcontracting the work to different designers  :banghead:

OK, I've got the Airfix one already, and there are some issues with it but it's nowhere near as bad as some of my fellow Airliner SIG buddies would have you believe.

Interested in the BMW M1.  I've the ESCI and Airfix kits so I'd like to know if it's a repop or not.

The Cylon Centurion is bound to be the Moebius 1/6th scale kit. It's about 13inches tall.

Nice to see the Twotter coming back. I've still got a few in the stash, but I could hoard a few more !

Hope the CL-415 isn't as expensive as Italeri's release. I mean, I love the aeroplane, and would like to get another, but they are almost $70, and I know what's in the box and should be getting 2 at that price !

The 200 scale Titanic searcher has lots of whif potential....

Seems to be close I'm afraid, Hannant's here has it listed at £22.49, Italeri's kit at £26.25 and Heller's kit at £20.83.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
