My Stash just grew again (2008)

[AeroplaneDriver]

Package from Twobobs arrived today.  I ordered the 1/72 Modeldecal British Letters, numbers, and Serials sheet in black and white, but unfortunately when it arrived there was only the white sheet with a note in the invoice that hte black sheet was sold out.  A bit of a downer since the white sheet looks great for whiffing!  It's 1/72 but there is material that will fit 1/144 and 1/48 also.  A really great sheet!

RoG 1/32 Eurocopter EC135 "Zermatt". Pretty cool as it comes with all the bits for all EC135 versions, so that means it has a nice FLIR turret, a Nitesun, 2 sets of skids, three floors, multiple sets of seats...all sorts of stuff.

Gonna do it as a Canadian Coast Guard Bo-105CBS replacement. Ordering the decals from CanMilAir this week...

Cheap 1/35 Revell Fuchs arrived today off EB, going to get converted for the RAF Regiment 

[frank2056]

Squadron is having a crazy sale on 1/144 models this month, so I got:

Academy DC-3 in American Airlines livery
G4M1 Betty (this one will get whiffed into a French bomber)
KC-97G Tanker
Hughes "Spruce Goose" in Pan Am livery. Even in 1/200 scale this thing is huge! I was going to do a scaleorama on it to 1/350...but even increasing the scale to 1/144 it would still make for a huge plane.

The main reason I went to Squadron was to get the last item - an Academy 1/35 scale French Foreign legion figure set. Total for everything (including shipping) was around $27 - it would have been close to $60 at regular Squadron prices.

[Mike Wren]

Ordered a set of Xtradecal Meteor F8 decals last night to be used on my next RAF100 project. Still toying with the idea of buying some more small scale armour to build or not.

[Aircav]

Ah, go on, buy some armour, you will,  you will, you will 

[kitnut617]

Just got a Hasegawa 1/72 Lockheed P-2H Neptune, 'cause it has a dorsal turret which I need for my earlier version conversion, and two more to add to my growing RCAF collection, a Phoenix Models 1/72 A.W.Atlas and a CanVac 1/72 Fleet Fawn, these two being vacuforms.

[AeroplaneDriver]

I went to the LHS today and picked up the Dragon 1+1 A-6E set, a couple of packs of Plastruct clear acrylic rod, and some Microscale Krisal Klear.  Then I went by Hobby Lobby where they are having a 50% off sale on hobby knoves and tools, so I got a sprue cutter, sanding stick, and a pack of #11 blades for under $9.

[Howard of Effingham]

hmm,

the newish RoG repop of italeri's F/A-18C with all the bits. it comes with the 2007 CAF CF-188 demo scheme and
some swiss AF decals.

and the mysterious armor bug strikes again.....

1/76 A-34 comet tank. the artwork on this inspires a whiff straight off as there is a M16 halftrack in the back of
the artwork. why not fit the gun mount onto the comet in place of the turret.... 

[NARSES2]

Comet with 4 .50's ? Maybe a recce vehicle in use by the Jordanian's, Finn's or Burmese ? I think they all had Comets ?

Anyways in Model Zone yesterday -

Airfix 1/72 Spitfire I
Revell 1/72 Hurricane IIC

Airfix WWI Figures - British, German and the very nice RHA set. Nice to see them back again
