My Stash just grew again (2009)

[Dork the kit slayer]

With the Hunter gatherer bloke spending his government stipend in the deep South,I was forced to make my monthly trek to Transport Models (Preston) in the company of my wife.
The guys behind the counter denied I had ever been in and spent more than a fiver( thanks guys) which allowed my wife to say get what you want and even picked out some "reduced" Hasegawa stuff for consideration.

So apart from the usual handfull of paint. I picked up these two. Both to be "real world".



Im already fighting with a Hasegawa Crusader but as they say " when your out of F-8s .............."

No Nippon Nev ....................my stash just grew again

[Aircav]

Back from Sword & Lance in Darlington, nice little show but mainly for trackheads but I did manage to get some Eduard PE sets and Aires resin wheel bay set for my 1/32 Hornet at a very cheap price plus a Revell 1/144 Airbus A319. 

[Ed S]

Had a good day at the Anniston, AL show today.  Picked up some inexpensive, and simple 1/48 kits for the grandson (age 6) to build.  Found some for myself as well.

Hasegawa 1/72 F-20 Tigershark.  Definitely a WHIFF.  Don't know the colors or markings yet.
Fujimi 1/72 A-4M Skyhawk.  This will be RW.
Airfix 1/72 F-80.  I'm thinking WHIFF on this one.  Probably USAAC '46 in P-51 markings as a counter to the Luft '46 that are so popular.

Went looking for a Hasegawa 1:48 Type 22 Zero at Cosford, found one, but bought a Hase' 1:48 Ju87B/R - the one with the snake's head marking NOT in red/white. Also an original issue Esci Macchi 329 in violent orange plastic - a stunning little kit and will almost certainly be Whiffed and (finally) a Hase' 1:72 weaps set - I need the rocket pods for the T-28D.

Hey, remember that 1:32 Stuka I mentioned a few days ago, well the guy I bought it from, sent me a 1:32 Bf109K AND a 1:48 Harrier GR7/9 F O R  G R A T IS, simply unbelievable...... so anybody (other than Nev) want to buy the Harrier off me ?

Tamiya 1/72 F4D Skyray.
Probably build this for the Fatherland Universe, seeing as it's a Lippish design.

Not sure, anything that takes my fancy at the time.

Revell 1/72 Dornier Do.28 Skyservant.
