Thanks for the tips Chris ! I have a resin TSR.2 that Thor gifted to me years ago... :cheers:

Which one's that? Resitech? Arba?

Folks! I see Hannants has in the Future Releases section has four 1/72 Armstrong-Whitworth Argosy kits from Mach 2.



There is thread about it or rather the agony of building Mach 2 kits over at Britmodeller.

It would appear that SMW is the launch venue. Are there any volunteers ready to take one for the team and check it out?

It would look nice with a RCAF lightning bolt.  :rolleyes:

Argosies*.

"Argosy's" would indicate you were speaking "of the Argosy".

What me? Pedentic?

What would the collective noun for Argosies be?

Would the collective noun for Mach 2 kits be "a disappointment"?
Or, given we should all know by now what to expect, "a confirmation"?

Then there is the old tale.

"London Information is there any traffic on my route?

Station calling there is a formation of Wessexes, er Wessie, er Wessexesssses.

Traffic is a Wessex helicopter and he has got lots of his mates with him"

It's one of the larger aircraft I would not mind having in 1/72 though saying that 1/144 is easier for storage and transportation. I shall probably have to save my pennies.

I reckon the plural of Argosy would be Argos, eg the Argos are coming, but I bow to any classics scholars amongst us  :rolleyes:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
