From a visit to HMW with Overkiller & Falcon i ended up with :-

1/700 Hobbyboss USS Jimmy Carter (For Project Cancelled SIG 2010 theme)
1/700 Fujimi USS New Jersey (For Cold War SIG 2010 Korean War theme)

So both real OOB builds..

Hasegawa 1/72 "Sasebo Flying Group" triple boxing. A6M2-2 Type 2 (Rufe), N1K1 Kyofu prototype and early production versions (Rex)

Possibly one will be post war Indonesian, the others ?

As Howard says Thai might be an idea, another could be French Indo China as a stop gap till they got Aliied surplus stock.

Got a Dragon 1/35 US Light Infantry set with two soldiers and a motorcycle. Think of using these in a dio.

This is one difficult little kit. I don't know why I had such a hard time with it, but building that motorcycle was a struggle. I don't think anyone makes PE for the spokes, and the kit really needs it.

a revell A-10
an airfix Jaguar GR3A/es
an airfix TSR2 ( plus resin cockpit and bomb bay bits)  a bargin for this one at £20
all in 1:48

Today I picked up a couple of E-2C's that Overkiller very kindly went and bought for me from the Works in Bolton
Cheers Duncan :thumbsup: :cheers:
Not looked at them yet, but for less than a tenner for them both, I am not too bothered.

Hobbycraft??
I tried to find it on Middlebrook, and it was not there, where is it now?
I wanted some filler also, as my current project has took nearly half a tube just on its nose!!

Cheers for that Duncan,
the middlebrook one was easier for me to get to than the Preston one, as it is a rigmarole getting to the Preston one,
BUGGER!! If I had of known I would have gone to the one just off Deane road instead, and suffered from clostrophobia :rolleyes:

Some of the Trumpeter 1:48 "Vigorous Dragon" J-10As (won't say how many as it's embarassing!),
a pair of Kinetic E-2C Hawkeyes in 1:48,
re-released Fokker Friendship by Airfix,
Italeri Hawk 1:48 (nice!)

That's about it for the year, I think.   :cheers:
