Looks like i may be the first one to post SMW 08 stash additions.

Xtrakit Seaharrier FA-2. (previously unannounced kit from Hannants)

I would be interested in your expert opinion about this kit Martin.

Me too. An FA-2 is still on my list of things to build. I see it's not up on the Hannants site yet.

I had a rather restrained time at Telford this year and bought a lot less than in previous years.

ModelDecal sheet 101 - RAF Vampires, Phantoms and Tornado squadrons.
Revell Messerschmitt P.1101 Nightfighter
HobbyBoss A-10 Thunderbolt, only £2 in the KitSwap!
Airfix Tornado F.3, this will provide parts for a....
Pegasus BAe EAP. This was free from Wooksta and came very well half-built by one of his mates!

Top of the lot was a very rare resin kit of a proposed 1970s Rockheed-Boeing Space Shuttle which has a fully reusable booster and different shape shuttle design. This is roughly 1/700 scale and comes from Kaiyooo, scruch-built by Takaaki Kurihara.
Looks fantastic if tiny and is the most expensive kit I've ever bought at £30 .

Picked up an Airfix spitfire Mk1 in 48th today. Yes, I know I don't normally do 48th but this is going to be a crimbo pressie for my brother. Just need to get a set of RAF decal from the BoB period, can anyone out there help?

[NARSES2]

Also got a 54mm figure of Gandalf

Thought you said it wasn't Gandalf or is it Gandulph 

[nev]

If the lawyers for Peter Jackson, Ian McKellen or the Tolkien estate ask, it isn't
