Normally I don't get too excited about Hasegawa releases, but a nice 188 and a speculative He-111Z-2 in 72nd get the juices flowing somewhat.

I could buy three Tamiya Doras for the price of that combo and still have change.  How many Airfix Spitfire IXs could you buy for the price of the Spitfire combo?

Five and a half Airfix Doras (better than the Hase one, in many respects on a par with the Tamiya one - definitely cheaper!), ditto Airfix Spits.

There are lots of words for these people and none of them are pleasant.  My particular favourite is an Anglo-Saxon word that's the oldest one still in use in the English language.  However, using it would get me banned.

Here's something in Hasegawa's 'Maschinenkrieger' line.  Altho there was a 72nd scale Nutcracker released back in the day, this is a new one and looks like it includes an AFS as well like its smaller predecessor.  Should prove a big kit as the 72nd scale version was large itself.

Along with more Maschinenkrieger kits to come, Hase are releasing another weapons set with, amongst other stores, Sniper & Lightening Pods.

Not sure how long it's been out, but Hannants now have Weapons Set VIII in. AIM-120Cs, AIM-9Xs and the latest jamming pods:

Also, seeing as how popular float planes are here, check this out: two Rufes (floatplane Zeros) in a box for £35 (not exactly a bargain but not too terrible by current standards either):

"1st Production" YS-11 in 1/144th. With the Dart(?) engines, it could easily be passed off as, or contribute to,  some British project. Not cheap at £25 but then this is Planet Hasegawa... :rolleyes:

You can still find the 72nd Bandai kit for those prices.
